VETUS drive
Technical details
Producer: Vetus (NL)

VETUS has a constant-velocity joint with integral thrust bearing, designed to connect the engine to the propeller shaft.

A few of the advantages of this system are:
• More freedom for engine movement due to the combination of a self-aligning thrust bearing and a double acting constant velocity joint.
• The propeller thrust is transmitted by the inbuilt thrust bearing, allowing the engine to be set up on softer mountings. This results in lower vibration and transmitted engine noise.
• Compact design with short installation length.
• Interchangeable with other well-known models.
• Designed for long service periods.
• Corrosion resistant materials: stainless steel, bronze, and black passivated steel parts
• Simple alignment of the propeller shaft

The VETUS Drive reduces installation time, eliminates alignment errors and permits maximum vibration damping for optimum comfort.
