Propeller 6 blade, Ø 185 mm., for 50/60/75/95 kgf bow thrusters

This 6-bladed propeller suitable for the BOW50/60/75/80 and 95 bow thusters. It can also be used as a replacement propeller set for the latest 60, 75 and 95kgf models. Working in close collaboration with the Maritime Research Institute Netherlands (MARIN), the world-famous hydrodynamic laboratory, VETUS has optimised the performance of its thrusters. This has been achieved by utilising a unique propeller blade profile. As cavitation produces unwanted noise, this new blade design offers a major reduction in operating sound levels. Moreover, the application of this new propeller reduces the current consumption by up to 10%.
