Product Details

I. Product Overview

The ABB 3AFV3348915 is a thrust bearing supplied by ABB for Azipod podded propulsion, with material number 3AFV3348915, bearing diameter Ø360mm, used for Azipod (type B) propulsors. This thrust bearing is installed in the Azipod propeller shaft line to absorb the axial thrust generated by the rotating propeller, serving as the key load-bearing component of the podded propulsion shaft line.

Azipod is an electric podded propulsion system developed by ABB, placing the drive motor in a submerged pod outside the ship hull, capable of 360-degree rotation. Its thrust bearing assembly uses traditional white metal (Babbit) slide pad elements to withstand axial forces, designed with pads exchangeable while in port, facilitating maintenance during vessel operation. The 3AFV3348915 thrust bearing is the key spare part of this shaft line, used for periodic inspection, wear replacement and repair.

This thrust bearing carries an official ABB Marine & Ports material number (3AFV code system), suitable for repair and spare part replacement of corresponding Azipod podded propulsion. For specific bearing type, material, load capacity, lubrication, oil clearance and other technical parameters, please contact via email for confirmation.
