Brass, GRP and Phenolic Cutlass Bearings
We hold a huge range of cutlass bearings in stock in Palma, Mallorca. Although there are many different sizes of bearings, in 3 materials, (brass, GRP and phenolic), we feel that it is important to hold as many in stock as possible as lead times to manufacture are often 5 to 8 weeks which is far too long if your boat has to go back in the water. Our aim is to deliver same day.
For such a critical, performance bearing (after all, it houses your propeller shaft !) we specify and supply only the very best to ensure zero problems for the life of the bearing. This means using Exalto Ltd., UK made bearings with extremely rigid quality control and ABS certification.
We hold in stock everything from tiny 25mm to 5 1/2 inch shaft sizes. Cutlass bearings exist in either fully metric eg. 80 x 100mm or fully imperial eg. 2″ x 3″, or metric/imperial, eg. 80mm x 4 inch. Note that imperial/metric does NOT exist.
When measuring up to replace your bearings you need to be as accurate as possible and if the metric size is ´unusual´ eg. 76.2mm, then it is most likely imperial (3 inch).
In any case, we are here to help and will be pleased to come to your boat and help ensure that you have the correct sized bearings.
Cutlass bearings generally last between 3 and 5 years so make sure you check yours every time you come out of the water. A worn bearing will cause the propeller shaft to move around and could cause vibration or overheating. It is a false economy to wait too long to change them so get in touch and we will make sure you have the right bearings at the right price!
We supply cutlass bearings to anywhere in the Med, including Turkey, Greece, Malta, Croatia, Israel, Egypt, etc.
