A subsea bow thruster tunnel set is a complete tunnel solution for safely installing a bow thruster in a submarine, ROV, or other subsea system. The tunnel protects the motor and ensures stable integration into the hull. The subsea bow thruster tunnel from Rim Drive Technology is designed for demanding underwater environments where reliability, protection, and control are essential.

Thanks to the strong stainless steel construction, the bow thruster remains well protected, even under harsh conditions. The various mounting options make installation flexible and suitable for diverse ship designs. In combination with our electric rim drive motors, you benefit from quiet operation, direct response, and minimal maintenance requirements.

Due to the compact design, the bow thruster can be efficiently positioned in the nose of the submarine, ROV, or subsea system. This saves space and supports precise maneuverability underwater. When additional control is required at the rear, the same technology can also be applied as a stern thruster. This makes the tunnel kit flexibly deployable for both bow and stern positioning, depending on the design and desired control.
