Pump Shaft Sleeve for Marine & Offshore
For shipyards, marine equipment builders and offshore operators. Specified to classification-society rules (DNV, ABS, LR) and NORSOK M-630 where offshore applies.
The Pump Shaft Sleeve is supplied to shipyards, marine equipment builders and offshore operators as an investment casting, in 7 catalogued sizes by outer diameter. In this sector the governing consideration is permanent seawater exposure, where a coating is a maintenance schedule rather than a strategy.

Alloys Specified for This Part in Marine & Offshore
Which of these is right depends on the medium, the temperature and the pressure rather than on the sector alone — two plants in the same industry routinely specify different grades for the same part.
| Grade | Specification | Corrosion | Temperature |
|---|---|---|---|
| CA6NM | ASTM A743 CA6NM / UNS J91540 | Moderate — better than carbon steel in water, well short of CF8M in chlorides. | approx. -73 C to +370 C |
| CF8M | ASTM A351 CF8M / UNS J92900 (cast 316) | Good pitting and crevice resistance in chlorides; standard choice for seawater-adjacent and chemical process duty. | approx. -196 C to +550 C, derated for pressure-retaining service above 425 C |
| CF3M | ASTM A351 CF3M / UNS J92800 (cast 316L) | As CF8M, with the low carbon that prevents sensitization at welds. | approx. -196 C to +425 C |
| CF8 | ASTM A351 CF8 / UNS J92600 (cast 304) | Good general corrosion resistance in fresh water, steam and mild chemicals; not for chlorides. | approx. -196 C to +550 C |
| CF3 | ASTM A351 CF3 / UNS J92500 (cast 304L) | As CF8 with low carbon for welded assemblies. | approx. -196 C to +425 C |
| CA15 | ASTM A743 CA15 / UNS J91150 (cast 410) | Mild — suitable for fresh water and steam, not for chlorides. | approx. -30 C to +650 C |
| CD3MN (2205) | ASTM A890 Gr 4A / UNS J92205 (cast 2205 duplex) | Substantially better than CF8M against chloride pitting and stress-corrosion cracking. | approx. -50 C to +280 C — the upper limit is set by 475 C embrittlement, not by strength |
| CE3MN (2507) | ASTM A890 Gr 5A / UNS J93404 (cast 2507 super duplex) | Excellent — PREN above 40, suitable for warm seawater and desalination brine. | approx. -50 C to +280 C |
| WCB | ASTM A216 WCB / UNS J03002 | None inherent — carbon steel castings are painted, plated or galvanized for corrosion protection. | approx. -29 C to +425 C |
| WCC | ASTM A216 WCC / UNS J02503 | None inherent; requires a protective coating. | approx. -29 C to +425 C |
| Inconel 625 (CW6MC) | ASTM A494 CW6MC / UNS N26625 (cast Inconel 625) | Outstanding — resists pitting, crevice attack and chloride stress-corrosion cracking. | approx. -196 C to +650 C |
| C95800 Nickel Aluminum Bronze | ASTM B148 C95800 (nickel aluminum bronze) | Excellent in seawater, with natural biofouling resistance; galvanically compatible with most marine steels. | approx. -200 C to +250 C |

Frequently Asked Questions
What matters most for a pump shaft sleeve in Marine & Offshore?
Permanent seawater exposure, where a coating is a maintenance schedule rather than a strategy. The failure this sector designs out is crevice corrosion under a gasket or inside a threaded joint, in the places nobody inspects.
Which specifications apply in Marine & Offshore?
Commonly classification-society rules (DNV, ABS, LR) and NORSOK M-630 where offshore applies. Name the one your drawing works to on the RFQ — it changes the testing, the documentation and the price, and it is cheaper to agree before tooling than after.
Which alloys are used for a pump shaft sleeve in Marine & Offshore?
Commonly CA6NM, CF8M, CF3M, CF8 and CF3. The right one depends on the medium, the temperature and the pressure rather than on the sector alone — two plants in the same industry routinely specify different grades for the same part.
How do I request a quotation?
Configure the drawing on this page — size, alloy, finish — and submit the form. Attaching a drawing or a STEP file is the fastest route to a firm price, and it lets us flag a castability issue before you commit to tooling.
More on the Pump Shaft Sleeve
The full record for the pump shaft sleeve — every catalogued size, the parametric drawing and the quote form — is on the Pump Shaft Sleeve product page.
Each grade changes the price, the weight and what the part survives, so there is a page per grade for this part: CA6NM (the catalog grade), WCB (the carbon-steel cost baseline), CF8M (the chloride-resistant default), CF3M (low carbon, for welded assemblies), CF8 (cheaper, where chlorides are absent) and CA15 (hardenable, for wear-loaded duty).
How it is shelled decides the tolerance and the surface you get, and the tolerance band is worked out against this part's own dimensions on each: Silica Sol Casting (DCTG 5 – 7, Ra 3.2 – 6.3 µm), Water Glass Casting (DCTG 7 – 9, Ra 6.3 – 12.5 µm) and Composite Shell Casting (DCTG 6 – 8, Ra 6.3 – 12.5 µm).
The specification and the testing change by sector more than the geometry does, so the pump shaft sleeve is written up separately for Pumps & Fluid Handling, Chemical Processing, Water & Wastewater and Mining & Minerals.
If the question is still whether a casting is the right way to make this part at all, the Pump Shaft Sleeve application guide covers where it is used, what has to be decided before a price exists, and where investment casting is the wrong answer.
