Shaft Mounted Cutter System

Line, net and weed cutter clamped onto the propeller shaft of inboard vessels; fits shaft sizes 3/4″ to 10″ (20–255 mm).

Description

Designed for inboard vessels and suited to private boats, the Spurs Shaft Mounted System is clamped onto the propeller shaft and uses its inertial force. Lines are guided to the propeller hub and cut before the next revolution by a 'screw action'. A blade hydroplanes on a Kevlar/Teflon bearing and is held stationary by a wedge holding block mounted on the strut with three screws.

Key features

  • Cuts line with each revolution, in forward or reverse, with no loss of speed or efficiency
  • Hardened stainless steel construction
  • Zinc anodes protect the stationary cutter from electrolysis
  • Helps prevent shafts or struts being torn loose, burnt bearings and engine or transmission overload
  • Removes the need for dives to clear prop-fouling lines

Applications

Inboard pleasure and workboats with shaft sizes from 3/4″ to 10″ (20–255 mm).
