To get the right boost on board
Cutting-edge solutions for every boat are those of Bruntons, distributed by SigmaDrive
An importer and distributor for Italy of Bruntons Propellers brand products, Sigmadrive stands as a market leader in the supply of propellers for sailing yachts and beyond. They are all very high-tech products, and whatever type of boat a propeller is needed for, Bruntons Propellers and Sigmadrive have the right, state-of-the-art solution. But not just any solution, exactly the right one; because Bruntons is the only company in the world that designs and manufactures virtually every type of propeller that is in regular use on the global market today, both in recreational and commercial boating. Bruntons Propellers and Sigmadrive in fact do not offer “average” products, however, but can always provide the perfect answer for every boat and every sailing style. A perfect example of the brand’s unique and inimitable quality is the Autoprop propeller. First, because Autoprop’s unique design and superb build quality make it the propeller of first choice among boaters around the world. The reason? A reduction in drag while sailing of at least 1’85% and an incredible ability to automatically change pitch to adapt to prevailing wind and sea conditions while sailing, whether done under sail or motor. Self-adjusting pitch, the same thrust at the stern as at the bow, less evolutionary effect at the stern: Autoprop is a unique propeller that at the same time is able to adapt to any type of cruising sailboat, monohull or multihull, displacement powerboat, pleasure or commercial.
ALWAYS THE PERFECT PROPELLER FOR TOP PERFORMANCE
SIGMADRIVE COUPLINGS
It is the brand new, already award-winning solution that foments effective anti-noise and anti-vibration responses. What distinguishes then these SigmaDrive couplings is their ability to resist propeller thrust when installed as a stand-alone coupling, directly from the shaft to the output flange on the engine transmission. It is possible to thus and even eliminate the vibrations originated by imperfect alignment between the propeller shaft and the motor, compensating up to 3 degrees in all directions.
VARIFOLD
It is the folding propeller for large cruising yachts, cruiser racers and racing yachts of all sizes, including those with engines from 10 to 1000 hp. So much so that Varifold folding propellers are regularly used by major shipyards such as Baltic, Swan, Wally, Solaris, Vismara, Moody, and Oyster.
AUTOPROP ECO*STAR
All Autoprop propellers are highly efficient because of their ability to change pitch automatically depending on engine speed and weather and sea conditions; an ability that provides optimal thrust at all times. And now with purely solar or hybrid power, the list of benefits provided by the new Autoprop Eco*Star propellers expands even further.
