France Hélices is a specialist manufacturer of propulsion systems for powerboats and sailboats. While the propeller itself is obviously one of the company's specialties, from design to manufacture, the company's know-how extends beyond the propeller alone to cover the entire propulsion system, from the shaft line to the anodes and the various spare parts.

Each time the boat leaves the water, it is important to monitor and maintain the entire propulsion system. Anodes, essential for corrosion control, are a must. France Hélices offers zinc anodes for cathodic protection of all parts in the main boat configurations: whether outboard or shaft, with its seat, rudder... For aluminum hulls and freshwater or brackish water cruising, France Hélices also responds to requests for specific magnesium or aluminum anodes.

Brake nuts, grease, keys or pins, France Hélices offers a wide range of spare and wear parts, as well as essential maintenance products.

Over time, the need may arise for in-depth work on the boat. Once again, France Hélices can supply all the necessary parts separately.

Firstly, the French manufacturer offers a wide range of propeller shafts in 316 L stainless steel, as well as the corresponding chairs. On the motor side, France Hélices offers a range of flexible couplings and clamping spindles, while at the submerged end, there are various proposals for orbit cutters and wire cutters.

For sealing management, France Hélices markets a variety of gland systems, from the most classic to the most elaborate, such as PSS, Tides Marine, stern tubes and mounting rings. Hydrolubes are also available for rudder mounting.

The various parts can be found in the France Hélices online store.
