Thordon Bearings has actually revealed heavenWater Seal, a brand-new prop shaft seal with an one-of-a-kind Safe Return to Port (SRTP) style that particularly satisfies business delivery sector requires for a reduced upkeep and also durable shaft seal. The Thordon BlueWater Seal finishes the COMPAC open salt water lubed prop shaft bearing system.

Taking the firm’s TG100 and also Sea Thigor seal items as the technological standard, the Thordon BlueWater Seal is an economical, business quality axial lip seal particularly created for seller delivery fleets.

While preserving most of the crucial attributes connected with the firm’s existing seal profile, the brand-new, much more readily concentrated BlueWater Seal is a high efficiency item taking advantage of the exact same degree of dependability connected with any type of Thordon item.

The BlueWater Seal additionally includes Thordon’s distinct emergency situation Safe Return to Port (SRTP) capacity. This ground-breaking innovation, initially made use of in the firm’s TG100 and also Sea Thigor– created for the workboat and also specialized marine vessel markets specifically– stands for the very first SRTP seal created for the seller fleet.

Commenting on the growth, Thordon Bearings’ Technical Director, Anthony Hamilton, stated: “The BlueWater Seal meets growing market demand for a complete propeller shaft line solution from a single source. Although we can offer the seal as an individual component, it forms a fundamental part of the Thordon COMPAC open seawater lubricated propeller shaft bearing system.”

The COMPAC system consists of Thordon’s exclusive salt water lubed COMPAC bearings, shaft linings, ThorShield anti-corrosion shaft finishing, a Thordon Water Quality Package, a Thordon Bearing Condition Monitoring System, and also, currently, the brand-new BlueWater Seal

The seal can be set up to all vessels with shaft sizes in between 300mm to 1000mm (11.8 in to 39.4 in) and also is easy to set up, run and also preserve.

“At first glance the Thordon BlueWater Seal may look like any other axial lip face seal out there,” statedHamilton “But what makes this seal unique is its SRTP capability and revolutionary RENFORM main seal ring.”

This innovation, created internal by Chief Research Engineer Gary Ren, permits the encountering aspects of the seal to run nearly with no rubbing. In useful terms, it suggests the seal is better matched to variable and also reduced draft problems– a crucial advantage to a globally-operating seller ship.

During relative tests on Thordon’s full-blown examination gear in Burlington, Ontario, Canada, the seal ran without rubbing spikes and also significantly much less rubbing than comparable seals causing lowered wear, longer life and also much less upkeep.

“This seal minimizes water leakage and dramatically improves hydrodynamic and lubrication efficiency,” describedHamilton “The development is a real boon to those ship owners and operators looking to adopt an open seawater lubricated shaft line arrangement as the entire propeller shaft line system can now be sourced from one company,” he stated.

Commenting on the addition of Thordon’s SRTP innovation, Scott Groves, Thordon Bearings’ VP Sales, stated: “The introduction of our innovative seal technology to the wider shipping fleet means a seawater lubricated propeller shaft is not only environmentally cleaner but even safer for ship and crew. The seal incorporates a secondary Safe Return to Port emergency seal. This inflates in the event of damage to the primary seal, allowing the shaft to continue to turn, allowing the vessel and crew to return safely to the nearest port. I believe the merchant fleet has never before had this capability.”

Craig Carter, VP Business Development, Thordon Bearings, included:“Although seawater lubrication is not a new technology, the BlueWater Seal very much is and fits perfectly with the International Maritime Organizations’ World Maritime theme for 2022: “new technologies for greener shipping” It has actually additionally been created based on United Nations Sustainability Goal # 14. Everything we do below at Thordon Bearings is tailored to producing a zero-emission ship listed below the water line and also guaranteeing our seas are tidy, without any type of oil and also oil.”

Having obtained course authorizations from ABS, LR, DNV, BV and also CCS, Thordon Bearings is currently proactively marketing the Thordon COMPAC system and also BlueWater Seal in all business aquatic markets.
