AerMet alloy is an ultra-high strength type of martensitic [1] alloy steel. The main alloying elements are cobalt and nickel, but chromium, molybdenum and carbon are also added. Its exceptional properties are hardness, tensile strength, fracture toughness and ductility. [2] Aermet is weldable with no preheating needed. [3]
The material used for ordinary shafts is mild steel. When high strength is required, an alloy steel such as nickel, nickel-chromium or chromium-vanadium steel is used. Shafts are generally formed by hot rolling and finished to size by cold drawing or turning and grinding. [citation needed]
Maraging steel is used in oil and gas sector as downhole tools and components due to its high mechanical strength. [21] The steel's resistance to hydrogen embrittlement is critical in downhole environments where exposure to hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) can lead to material degradation and failure.
A Mark 46 Mod 5A torpedo is inspected aboard a destroyer in April 2005. Contra-rotating propellers have benefits when providing thrust for boats for the same reasons. ABB provided an azimuth thruster for ShinNihonkai Ferries in form of the CRP Azipod, [1] claiming efficiency gains from the propeller (about 10% increase [2]) and a simpler hull design.

A V-drive is a power transmission system for boats that consists (usually) of two gearboxes, two drive shafts, and a propeller.. Whereas the conventional arrangement sites the engine with its gearbox aft, driving the propeller shaft directly, in a "V-drive" layout, the engine is reversed, to have the gearbox in front.
