General Metals & Polymers

GMP is one of the world’s most trusted names in the marine industry worldwide for over 35 years. Our bearings are used in rudder, shaft and stern gear applications for all types of marine vessels from naval ships, cargo/container ships, tankers, ocean liners, luxury yachts, to harbor tugboats, trawlers and costal fishing boats.

Our bearings cover a wide range of shaft diameters from 25mm to 400mm. (Bespoke sizes can also be made on request).

Our Cutlass Forward Stern Tube Flanged Bearings designed for heavy duty operations are cast centrifugally with an integral flange; the shells are heavy walled to provide structural strength. The flange is bolted to the stern tube or strut housing to retain the bearing and prevent rotation within the housing.

Shells are furnished un-drilled unless specified. GMP flanged Marine Cutlass Rubber Bearings are available in cylindrical circular or split semicircular designs.
