SUPREME® PROPULSION SEALS
ABOUT SUPREME®
PROPULSION SEALS
We believe a seal should deliver top performance, keep you going and offer you Peace of Mind. This idea led to the development of the Supreme seal. Introduced in the 1980s and further developed ever since, Supreme seals offer a ‘plus’ to many propulsion systems and vessels worldwide.
The Supreme stern tube seals and Supreme thruster seals are produced with high-quality housing parts, lip seals and liners. Our Modular, Made-to-Measure philosophy enables us to deliver customer-specific designs combined with short quotation, lead and delivery times. In addition, the Supreme seals are suitable for both new-build and retrofit applications.
The list of advanced options like an HML coating for extra durable liners and environmentally acceptable lubricant (EAL) compatible lip seals allows you to customise your seal design to your preferences.
TYPE AND DESIGN APPROVAL
The Supreme seals have been approved by globally recognised classification societies such as the American Bureau of Shipping (ABS), Bureau Veritas (BV), DNV GL and the Indian Register of Shipping. Look at the overview of all available type and design certificates.

SUPREME SEALS
Our Supreme range is a reliable stern tube sealing solution. Consisting of bronze housing parts (or cast iron to fit inland vessels), and also available in a split version, the aft seal prevents water ingress and oil leakage to the outside environment. The forward seal consists of cast iron housing parts and contains two oil-repellent lip seals, preventing oil leakage to your engine room. Both seals are finished with a stainless steel liner. Complemented with a broad range of options, the Supreme seal can be fully customised to your specific sealing need to guarantee you Peace of Mind.
