PRM marine gearbox range on show in Southampton

Four models from Newage Transmissions well-known PRM marine gearbox range will form the centrepiece of the company's presentation on Stand 84 at the Seawork Marine Equipment Show in Southampton between 19-21st June 2001. Developed specifically to meet the needs of commercial fishing vessel and work boat users, the PRM 500, 750, 1000 and 1500 models on show provide the ideal choice for a wide variety of applications with engines rated at up to 500 hp. All PRM gearboxes feature a dual countershaft design that enables full input power to be transmitted in both ahead or astern.

As a result, units are equally suitable for left or right hand propeller rotations - as well as multiple engine installations.

They also carry Lloyd's approved commercial ratings and are backed by a full two year warranty and the company's world-wide dealer and customer support network.

In addition, PRM marine gearboxes are offered with a comprehensive range of ancillary equipment, including trolling valves and clutched or direct-drive power take-offs.

"Our transmissions' in-service reliability, durability and low maintenance have helped to establish them as the units of choice for the majority of Britain's leisure boat owners," reports Newage's Marine Sales Manager, Ian Oliver.
