Michigan Wheel 11028 Aluminum 3-Blade Propeller, 11.75 x 17 Pitch, Cupped, Michigan Match

The Michigan Wheel 11028 is an 11.75 inch diameter, 17 inch pitch aluminum outboard propeller built to the Michigan Match design. It features a 3-blade, cupped configuration for improved bite and holding power, and is cast from a high-grade aluminum alloy engineered for trouble-free service and easy repairability. Every Michigan Wheel propeller in this line uses a rubber hub bonded inside the propeller body, which acts as a shock absorber to help protect the boat's shaft, motor, and gear case from impact damage if the blades strike an underwater object. Because the finest grade alloys are used in construction, these aluminum props are built to be stronger than many original equipment propellers while remaining significantly more affordable to replace than a stainless steel unit. The Michigan Wheel 11028 is backed by a limited lifetime manufacturer's warranty, giving boat owners long-term confidence in the casting and hub bonding. This propeller is a straightforward, drop-in style replacement or spare for outboard applications matching its 11.75 x 17 cupped specification, and its rubber hub design means it also functions as a shear-pin-free impact buffer rather than relying on a separate sacrificial part.
