Evolution Marine Shaft System (EMSS)
Oil bath propeller shaft system with integrated thrust bearing that transfers thrust to the hull for smooth, quiet, low-maintenance operation.
Description
The Evolution Marine Shaft System (EMSS) is an oil bath shaft for smooth, quiet, low-maintenance propeller shaft installations. Its integrated thrust bearing transfers propeller thrust directly to the hull, which improves efficiency and allows softer engine mounting.
Key features
- "22" alloy shaft running in an oil-filled shaft tube
- Thrust bearing with two conical roller bearings in an oil-filled housing
- Aft roller bearing and, where needed, intermediate bearing
- Double lip seals at each end plus an intermediate seal; seals run on hardened races
- Monitor tank and pump maintain oil level and circulation; optional oil cooler for warm water
Soundown recommends EMSS for smaller drive shaft systems and has partnered with Evolution Shaft Systems.
