Spiral Bevel Gears for the Marine Industry
Stainless and Alloy Steel Spiral Bevel Gears for Marine Drives, Deck Machinery and Shore-Based Port Equipment.
Salt, Moisture and Tight Space
Marine drives work in salt air and spray, usually in tight spaces and with strict reliability needs. Gears have to resist corrosion as well as carry load.
Where We Supply
Auxiliary and deck machinery such as winches and windlasses, steering and positioning drives, pump and generator drives, and shore equipment at ports and shipyards.
What We Recommend
Stainless steel in SS316 for the most exposed parts, hardenable martensitic grades where more strength is needed, and protected alloy steel for gears inside a sealed gearbox. We discuss the environment and load with you before choosing, because stainless gears carry less load than alloy steel gears.
Classification and Certificates
If the part needs material certificates or inspection by a third party, tell us at the enquiry stage. Read about stainless steel spiral bevel gears.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which stainless steel is best for marine gears?
SS316 resists chlorides and seawater best. If more strength is needed, a hardenable grade such as SS410 can be used with suitable protection.
Can gears come with material certificates?
Yes. Mill test certificates can be supplied, and third-party inspection can be arranged if you specify it at the enquiry.
