Kaplan Propellers |
The VEEM Kaplan® propeller series is suited to
nozzle applications and is extremely popular for trawlers, tugs and
other vessels requiring high towing or bollard pull thrust.
The Kaplan propeller is designed to operate in a nozzle and
has excellent thrust characteristics in low speed applications. The
Kaplan propeller has a combination of aerofoil sections and double
ogival sections towards the tip. The blade contour has a wide tip
that is designed to run with a close fit to the inside of the nozzle.
Each Kaplan propeller is customized for rake, blade area and boss
detail to suit the specific requirements of each vessel. Why compromise
when VEEM can supply you with a propeller that provides optimum performance.
Manufactured using the latest robotic and CNC processes, the VEEM Kaplan
is of the highest quality and accuracy attainable, and is further
improved with dynamic balancing at VEEM's NATA. approved balancing
facility.
The VEEM Kaplan is manufactured from high strength nickel aluminum
bronze material, providing high quality castings with excellent resistance
to corrosion, erosion and fatigue. In addition, nickel aluminum bronze
is readily repairable.

Read How WildCat Props Exceeds the Expectations
of Our Customers!
Thanks again for your fantastic service and superior, quality work on the
wheels for the 54' 2006 Hatteras SF with the c32 cats. Here are the amazing
facts: The bubbles behind the boat were drastically reduced; In slow vessel
mode, one engine in neutral; no longer a no wake violation; At 30 knots,
we went from 125 gal/hr (combined) to 105 gal/hr (combined). That's a savings
for us of 80 gal each fishing trip from VB. We also increased our wide open
under load, RPM's from 2245 to the manufacturer's spec's at 2350. This allows
us to cruise at 36-37 knots at 80% load (previous cruise at 80% load was
33/34 knots).
