Description
- Shaft Size: 2-3/4″
- OD: 3-3/4″
- Length: 11″
- Johnson Cutless Naval Brass Sleeve Bearings adapt equally well to strut and stern tube mounts, and are often used effectively as rudder-stock and pintle bushings.
- Bearing diameters are precision fitted to the designated shaft size with the correct clearance for efficient water lubrication.
- External brass shells are machined and polished to provide easy fitting.
- Specially formulated oil and chemical resistant nitrile rubber is securely bonded to the shell.
- Units with thin shells are available for the struts of small craft. Sleeve bearings are usually installed by light press-fitting and locked in place with cone-pointed set screws.
- PRECAUTION: When shrink fitting of the bearing is required, chilling must be achieved by gradual cooling to not more than minus 20F(-28C) using freezer or regular ice (DO NOT DRY ICE). NOTE: Pounding or shocking the bearing while in the chilled state could cause the rubber to separate from the shell.
