Speedy Sleeve dimension for the shaft of a Saildrive 120S

[Chanquete]

I would very much appreciate these data.
Are these speedy sleeves of stainless steel?

They are stainless steel.

Vic (sailaboutvic) might know the size.

Looks like you will have to measure yours. Its quite easy with a vernier caliper.
The speedi sleeves come in two types - standard and high wear resistance. I used the high wear resistance (these have a hard coating)
The speedi sleeve comes with a collar which is used to drive the sleeve when tapping it with a mallet into position. This collar was much too short so i needed to find a suitable diameter tube to drive the collar and sleeve home.

As per the the above post... The following is what I bought from BearingsRUs for my 120S-D

(Yes, I bought more than needed!)

And as Halo mentions, you will need a longer installation tube in order to fit them to the shaft, since the provided closed end tube is way too short.

The following screenshots from a previous thread might help with the size of tube needed...

I went to a local DIY store and found the ground anchor for a rotating washing line was just the right size and length when I did mine.

Here we go, another anchor thread

Its now doing sterling service as the support for swingball in my back garden.

This is what I ordered for my 120 S in 2022. Still doing its job 3 years on.
