Bethlehem Steel To Exhibit Withdrawable Sterngear In Hoboken, NJ. Week Of May 13 Bethlehem Steel Corporation will exhibit the Glacier-Herbert withdrawable sterngear at its Ho- boken, N.J., shipyard during the week of May 13. Bethlehem and Glacier Metal Company, Ltd. have agreed to cooperate on a ship-by-ship basis for design and manufacture of the British com- pany's withdrawable sterngear. Bethlehem's ship- building department will make the sterngear and will provide full marketing support in the en- deavor. The product will be marketed in the United States by Glacier Metal, which will do the design work. With this system, it is unnecessary to drydock a vessel in order to dismantle the stern bearing for inspection or replacement. Major benefits that the Glacier-Herbert system is designed to provide include: — provide dismantling of the stern bearing, with both forward and aft seals, by two or three men from inboard while the vessel is afloat at normal trim and at any draft; — inspection of the shaft and outer shaft and outer seal liner at the same time; — easy alignment in position after assembly of the propeller, again while the vessel is afloat and in any condition of loading; — better lubrication and cooling of bearing and seals (the seals have separate lubrication systems). The design is compatible with all known forms of propellers and seals, and standard designs are available for all shaft sizes from 540 mm to 940 mm. Any special size can be made to order. The sterngear assembly that will be on display at the Hoboken Shipyard weighs eight tons. The exhibit will be available during normal business hours. HOSE McCANN TELEPHONE ca,INC.
