Edson's Stuffing Boxes combines a rudderpost bearing with an above-the-waterline stuffing box
for rudderpost sizes ranging from 1” (2.5 cm) diameter to 4-1⁄2” (11.4
cm). We recommend fiberglassing the stuffing box/bearing to the top of
the tubing when the rudderpost is in place. This can be done easily
using alternating layers of fiberglass mat and cloth. This makes the
post a structural bearing and will help carry rudder loads with minimal
friction. Custom sizes are available on request, but allow additional
time. For specs please visit our eCatalog page.
