Jastram has been developing and producing transverse thrusters since 1950. They specialize in fixed pitch propellers (FPP) that require minimal maintenance thanks to their robustness and durability.

They continuously adapt the design of the propeller to the latest developments to make sure that their thruster units meet your needs and requirements. With electric drive systems ranging from low-cost, three-step control to frequency-controlled drives for dynamic positioning, Jastram offers transverse thrusters for a wide range of vessel types.

Jastram transverse thrusters are made from high-quality, certified materials and individually designed to comply with your installation conditions. Class approvals for single components or for the entire transverse thruster are, of course, available.

We offer vertical, horizontal or any other type of installation for electric, hydraulic or diesel engine drives. And the systems are optionally available with tunnel inlets individually adapted to the vessel’s contours, which optimizes the efficiency and noise characteristics of the systems and simplifies installation at the shipyard.
