Propeller Repair

What is propeller repair?

Propeller repair is one of our most experienced underwater tasks at Odin Diving A/S.

Salling at sea exposes ships to various challenges, and a common issue for ships is damage to their propellers. Propellers can suffer from roughness or problems such as bent blades, often occurring under strain or when a ship encounters ice or debris.

When a propeller is damaged, it can lead to unwanted vibrations in a ship, affecting its overall performance. It is crucial to note that the longer you wait, the greater the damage can become.

A broken or bent propeller requires a propeller repair. At Odin Diving A/S, we specialize in re-straightening propellers to restore their original form or replace broken propellers. We are always ready to help if you need propeller repair – or if you simply want an inspection to determine if your propellers are in need of repair. Within propeller repair, we can assist you with the following, for example:

• Cold straightening of bent propeller blades.
• Propeller repair involving cutting off damaged areas on the propeller blades.
• Replacement of gaskets as well as propeller blades.
• Grinding of anti-singing edge on propeller blades.
• Repairing cavitation damage.

The tasks mentioned above require the expertise of professionals. Sanding and cutting underwater is very dangerous and difficult. This is why it is important to always let professionals handle these tasks.

Propeller polishing

At Odin Diving A/S, we offer a multi-stage propeller polishing. Propeller polishing is a specialized service that aims to polish the propellers of a ship to improve and maintain a smooth surface. Underwater propellers are constantly exposed to factors such as marine growth and the risk of cavitation. These elements can contribute to a rough surface on the propeller blades, which can affect a ship’s ability to perform at its best.

The primary purpose of propeller polishing is to reduce the surface roughness. Regular maintenance of propellers is essential to prevent the need for future repairs.
