Navy/Coast GuardNew standards of naval performance are being set with Thordon's COMPAC open water lubricated propeller shaft bearings. Performance enhancements include lower friction, reduced acoustic noise levels and proven long wear life. Thordon Composite propeller shaft bearings designed for high performance in landing craft (LCU's), and work boat applications offer a wear life of more than twice that of other non-metallic bearings - and significant savings in maintenance costs. Self-lubricating Thordon SXL pintle, stock and carrier rudder bearings offer smooth reliable operation, proven long bearing wear life and grease free operation.
