The forward end of the stern tube is supported by the aft peak bulk head and the aft end of the stern tube gets its support from the stern frame of the ship. Throughout the length, the shaft is supported by specially designed brackets and narrow floors inside the stern tube. The stern tube seal is critical to the operation of the ship.

The estimated cost of two (2) kits Part Number WLP001259-001 and two (2) kits Part Number WDI002077-001 is $. The appropriate fiscal year's OM&N funds will be used at the time of contract award.
