Large Format Stern Tubes Under Demanding Requirements

DATE: 2025-10-25

Lots of technical knowledge required to undertake very large format FWD and AFT stern tubes machining. ID Babbitt White Metals, OD cast iron, Angles, Offseting, Slopes, Multiple Finishing Steps.... very precise 20 microns tolerance throughout, under tight temperature control of work piece and measuring equipment throughout machining and measurement process. Plus, the usually very short delivery schedure, making the work even more challenging and demanding.

We believe in continuous learning and improvement. It is WWG Team's unique culture to push for non-stop upgrading and keep making technical breaking-thru. Many medium and very large FWD and AFT stern tubes have been remetalled and final machined within Makers' and Ship Owners' demanding requirements, inclusive of Marine Class arrangement while necessary.
