802 Series

The rudder bearings 802 series are available only in the lower version for the hull. These bearings are made with anodized aluminum 3571, they are self-aligning with an inner spherical ertalyte ball and are designed for an easy installation to the hull and to absorb the bending stress of the rudder shaft under load. The outside shape is cylindrical with a locking flange.

Solimar supplies, on request, a fiberglass bushing (Item 802B) that must be laminated to the hull. The bearings must be locked by bolts to the fiberglass bushing. In this way the dismantling of the bearing for maintenance or replacement is very easy and quick, with no de-lamination of the hull.

Solimar also produce also the 812S series with an inner self-aligning ertalyte ball and aluminum bushing sliding on peek rollers (suitable for aluminum or carbon fibre rudder shafts) and the 892S series with the same features and inner stainless steel bushing sliding on stainless steel rollers (suitable for stainless steel rudder shafts).

The 802 series is suitable for rudder shaft with diameter from mm 70 up to mm 160. The watertight system (Solimar security system) on rudder bearings series 802L, 812L, 892L is made with a self-supporting neoprene tube (height to be specified) locked by stainless steel clamps. A ring with gasket is locked on the top of the tube using stainless steel clamps.
