Stubby Pro Shaft Seals are an excellent choice for boaters looking for an alternative to other types of “dripless” shaft seals.
It combines the reliability of a traditional stuffing box with the benefits of a modern, water-fed, self-aligning shaft seal.
Introducing the Stubby Pro Shaft Seal
Stubby Pro Shaft Seals offer boaters a trustworthy, heavy-duty alternative to so-called mechanical face seals and lip seals.
Inspired by the success of our original SA Series Shaft Seals in the commercial fishing fleets of New England, the Stubby Pro offers the same benefits in a compact profile that fits most stern tube configurations.
The Stubby Pro Advantage:
The Stubby Pro is designed to be low maintenance, with limited failure points while maximizing performance and safety. If you’ve been boating long enough, you’ve either experienced a failure of a “packless” shaft seal or know someone who has.
No bellows to rip or lose compression
No set screws to cut into the shaft
No lip seals to tear
No carbon stator to crack
No stainless rotor to slip
No flimsy hose barb to snap off
No drips required to keep packing cool
Experience the difference and find out why many of the world’s finest boat builders, service yards, and marine mechanics trust RE Thomas’s shaft seals. Stop worrying about your dripless shaft seal and get the peace of mind you deserve.
The Problem With Modern Dripless Shaft Seals:
Experienced boaters have warned for years that modern dripless shaft seals can be dangerous and are more prone to catastrophic failure.
The Stubby Pro is designed specifically to address these concerns.
