No more dripping stuffing boxes: The PSS Shaft Seal Type A is a low-maintenance mechanical face seal that provides a completely watertight seal for your propeller shaft. It reliably compensates for misalignments, vibrations, and the axial back-and-forth movement caused by propeller thrust – with no dripping water in the bilge.

Tip: Correct bellows preload is crucial for proper function. After installation, check the bellows' compression and ensure that the rotor's set screws are seated on clean, degreased shaft metal. After the first few hours of operation, recheck all hose clamps for a secure fit.
