Net Protectors and Dirt Rings

Tough marine environments can play havoc on an aft seal’s effectiveness – dirt, fishing lines, and nets can all be responsible for mounting maintenance costs. Simplex net protection solutions include three options, used individually or in combination, for protecting the aft seal from damage caused by fishing nets or lines.

• Simplex net protector ring is a dirt, net and rope protection ring that is fully split and is positioned in front of the first sealing ring
• Simplex net cutter has stainless steel blades fixed onto the rope guard or propeller
• Simplex net pick-up is a fully split ring mounted just inside the rope guard to collect any net, line or rope before it reaches the aft seal
