Protect your propeller
and stern gear with this simple, low cost device. Now in its
tenth year and with thousands in service the SHAFT KNIFE is
a proven success. Simplicity is the secret. Prices start from
£70.00 plus V.A.T.
EFFICIENT
Manufactured in high quality 316 stainless
steel the SHAFT KNIFE works when its needed and cannot suffer
from shear loads. Other devices have passing cutting edges
which can cause shear loads when cutting and this can be disastrous
if a solid object is encountered. |

AFFORDABLE
Due to
its simplicity the SHAFT KNIFE is a low cost product and does not
suffer from complicated bearing replacement and maintenance. It
might occasionally require sharpening.
EASY
TO FIT
Remove
the propeller, dimple the shaft to locate and fit the SHAFT KNIFE
and replace the propeller. It's as easy as that. No special tools
required and no boatyard charges for fitting.
HOW
TO SELECT YOUR SHAFT KNIFE
1
Measure the EXACT shaft diameter.
2
Measure the diameter of the propeller boss and outboard bearing
or 'P' bracket. Use the largest of these dimensions to match the
"Hub range" in the table below.
i.e 35mm
shaft size with a propeller boss of 60mm would be Model SK2.
When
ordering please state "Exact shaft size" and "Model"

Due to
the compact size of the SHAFT KNIFE most installations will have
sufficient room to fit the unit. However fitting a spacer or flexible
coupling will overcome the remaining problem installations.
