Stern Tube Seal Replacement by RM Propulsion

Last week, RM Propulsion successfully completed a stern tube seal replacement on an ocean-going vessel. We supervised the shaft removal and liner installation and our service engineer took care of the precise installation of new seals.

💡 Why is this critical?

Stern tube seals play a vital role in preventing water ingress and oil leakage around the propeller shaft. Over time, seals wear out and grooves develop on the liner, which can lead to leakage, system damage and costly downtime

Our contribution:

✔️ Careful inspection of the sealing system

✔️ Professional installation of new stern tube seals

✔️ Measuring and making all relevant allignments

✔️ Testing to ensure leak-free, reliable operation

With this service, the vessel is ready to sail again for another 5 years
