BACK TO OVERVIEW
Supreme® Standard
The Supreme Standard is the basic design for stern tube and thruster seals of seagoing vessels. This reliable sealing solution can be applied to CPP and FPP systems and is available in split type. Complemented with a broad range of options, the seal can be fully customised to your specific needs.
Advantages
- Effective separation of water and lubricants
- Highly corrosion resistant
- Modular, Made-to-Measure
- Available in split type
How it works
The Supreme Standard is suitable as a forward seal (STF) and an aft seal (STA) for shaft diameters from 116 to 1150 millimetres. The aft seal prevents water ingress to the stern tube and oil leakage to the outside environment. The forward seal prevents oil leakage from the stern tube to your engine room. The Supreme Standard is suitable for both new-build and retrofit applications.
Aft seal (STA)
