Bearing of the wheelhouse on patrol boats

For six patrol boats built for the Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore, Getzner provided Sylomer® elastic bearings to reduce noise and vibration inside the wheelhouse. By fully decoupling the wheelhouse from vibration sources such as engines and pumps, the vessels achieved a measured interior noise level of just 79.2 dB, meeting the strict requirement of staying below 80 dB. The Sylomer® solution offers long‑term durability, requires no maintenance, and is resistant to salt water, oils, and dirt—ensuring reliable acoustic comfort and protection of sensitive onboard equipment throughout the vessels’ service life.
