Stern Tube of Ship

The stern tube is a component of a ship's Propulsion System that provides a housing for the ship's propeller shaft. It is typically located in the stern (rear) of the ship and runs through the hull to the propeller. The propeller shaft passes through the stern tube and is supported by bearings that are located inside the tube.

The stern tube is sealed to prevent seawater from entering the ship, which could cause damage to the propulsion system and affect the ship's stability. The seal is typically made up of a series of rubber or synthetic rings that surround the propeller shaft and prevent water from entering the stern tube.

Maintenance of the stern tube is important to ensure the proper functioning of the ship's propulsion system. This includes regular inspection of the bearings and seals, as well as cleaning and lubrication to prevent wear and corrosion.
