Jet Thruster systems make use of a variety of straight threaded fittings. Composite parst are corrosion resitant. All stainless parts in the system are bonded to a Sactificial anode present in the pump inlet section. The anode is easy to inspect and change without the need taking the boat out the water.
When designing our parts, product safety is our highest priority. This is not a hollow frase. Our composite parts are injection moulded from a Top Quality Dupont Composite substrate. After the design stage a demanding test stage follows in which the parts are tested to the limit. An independed Notified Body certified our products after testing them according to the Norms to which these part must comply. Composites simply enable great maritime products, no wonder allmost every boat builder these days is switching from metal thru hulls into Composite equivalents.
