Because Moffitt-de- signed Cutless bearings use water and only water for lubrication. The unique Moffitt "Water Wedge" design allows just the right amount of water to circulate through the bearing. It keeps the bearing cool and flushes out harmful abrasives. A tough B.F. Goodrich rubber liner keeps the shaft turning easily and smoothly. Keeps friction and horse- power losses low. And it makes no difference if the water is contaminated. Salt or sand-filled water, per- formance and service are not affected. Now you can be a good environmental citizen and still get the bearing that works better and lasts longer. Cutless bearings available world-wide through yards and marine stores.
