Gland Packing & Shaft Log
One of the most vital spare parts and regular maintenance jobs. Your boat's gland packing should be checked regularly and replaced occasionally. We carry the Freeman gland packing sizes in stock along with the locking wire and Shaft Log Hoses for the various models.
Do grease the bearing regularly, a must have is a good quality Waterproof Grease. We generally use a good thick grease as it retains itself in the bearing; if you have a remote greaser then you should use a slightly thinner grease to allow it flow to the bearing.
