With the Thordon TG100 propeller shaft seals, workboats no longer have to put up with the maintenance hassles and shaft wear commonly experienced with stuffing boxes. Stuffing boxes often cause excessive shaft wear and are not considered a reliable solution in emergency situations.
A unique feature of the Thordon TG100 is its proprietary emergency seal that allows the shaft to continue to turn at low rpm for a limited time, to allow the vessel to return to port. Watch the video below to learn more and see how the seal is installed.
