Pioneer Industries, LLC Rudder Seal

The USCG intends to procure on a brand name basis Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) rudder seal service kits (“A” and “B”) used to support the 154’ WPC Coast Guard cutters. 

The rudder seal assemblies and associated service kits are part of the vessel steering system and keep sea water from entering the vessel where the rudder stocks protrude through the hull.  The rudder seal assemblies are complete units installed when there is a complete failure of a rudder seal.  The service kits (A&B) are used to replace wear components of the installed rudder seals during vessel dry docking.

The following rudder seal assemblies and associated service kits will be purchased:
