Above all, we are ready to assist with emergency repairs whenever necessary to minimize downtime.
Our service technicians can service all common brands including:
Global Availability
Our engineers are stationed in Turkey, Estonia, China, and the Netherlands, ensuring that we can provide stern tube seal replacement services worldwide. If your vessel isn’t near one of these countries, we can still dispatch our engineers directly to your location. Whether you need stern tube seal bonding or repairs afloat, we’re equipped to handle it efficiently.
One-Year Warranty on Stern Tube Seal Bonding
For peace of mind, all stern tube seal bonding services come with a one-year warranty, ensuring the quality of our work and the continued reliability of your vessel’s stern tube system.
Planning Your Stern Tube Seal Service
At RM Propulsion, we work with you to plan the full scope of the stern tube seal service. We coordinate with your superintendent, crew, and shipyard to ensure everything is in place for a smooth operation.
High-Quality Seals for Stern Tube Seal Maintenance
We offer stern tube seal service using either our own Ocean Seal® type-approved seals or spares from your selected brand. Not only do we guarantee high-quality seals, but we also ensure compatibility with your specific stern tube system.
Efficient Overhaul, Bonding, and Repairs
Our engineers provide comprehensive service for stern tube seal replacement, including overhauls, bonding, and repairs. We ensure that your stern tube system is fully functional and protected. Typically, a normal overhaul for the AFT and FWS seals takes 3 to 4 working days under perfect circumstances, assuming no uninspected details arise during the process.
Dry Dock or Afloat Stern Tube Seal Service
We offer flexibility in performing stern tube seal replacement either in dry dock or afloat, depending on your vessel’s needs. A stern tube overhaul is typically done in dry dock, where full access allows for thorough inspections and repairs. However, in some cases, if there is a leakage or other issues requiring immediate attention, the work may need to be done afloat. This flexibility ensures we can meet your requirements, whether your vessel is in port or operating at sea.
