About this file
This is a letter from ZF Marine Propulsion Systems Miramar, LLC, addressed to the U.S. Coast Guard Surface Forces Logistics Center, dated August 11, 2025, establishing the company's authorized supplier status for ZF Marine reduction gears and related propulsion systems products.
ZF Marine Propulsion Systems Miramar, LLC, located at 15351 SW 29th Street, Suite 300, Miramar, FL 33027, is identified as the sole and exclusive North American authorized supplier for U.S. Coast Guard–specification ZF Marine reduction gears and OEM components from Zahnradfabrik Friedrichshafen AG (ZF Marine), ZF Marine Padova, ZF Marine Arco, ZF Marine Brazil, and ZF Faster Propulsion. The letter specifies that USCG-spec ZF 23560C reduction gears are in current production and can be purchased by MTU directly from the ZF factory in Germany for USCG supply. The ZF 2550 (also known as BW255) reduction gears are no longer in regular production and are procured exclusively through ZF Marine Propulsion Systems Miramar, LLC in North America. The letter emphasizes that all these units require special factory tooling and training to repair and overhaul to OEM specifications. Additionally, only ZF Marine Propulsion Systems Miramar, LLC possesses the capability to perform overhauls on the ZF 23560C reduction gears, as no other authorized ZF service dealers in North America have the required training or tooling for this specialized work.
