Edson's Shaft Mount Brake with Stainless Knob. One of our most popular accessories for wheel steerers, we designed this brake especially for Rack and Pinion and Worm Steerer installations. Its dampening action is especially useful on long runs or when operating under power. lt can also be used to hold a boat on course under most conditions, but as a safety feature it can be overridden by the helmsman. The brake mounts on the wheel shaft against the inside forward wall of the wheel box, with the brake knob coming out either side of the box. These brakes are constructed of aluminum and...

Combines a rudderpost bearing with an above-the-waterline stuffing box for rudderpost sizes ranging from 1" (2.5 cm) diameter to 414" (1 1.4 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.
