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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Michigan Wheel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 11028\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e 11.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePitch:\u003c\/strong\u003e 17 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Blades:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Design:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cupped\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Aluminum with bonded rubber hub\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHub Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rubber, bonded inside\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4.3 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries:\u003c\/strong\u003e Michigan Match\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty:\u003c\/strong\u003e Limited Lifetime Manufacturer's Warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat size is the Michigan Wheel 11028 propeller?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Michigan Wheel 11028 measures 11.75 inches in diameter with a 17 inch pitch.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow many blades does this propeller have?\u003c\/strong\u003e It is a 3-blade design, part of Michigan Wheel's Michigan Match series.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat material is the 11028 propeller made from?\u003c\/strong\u003e It is cast from a high-grade aluminum alloy with a rubber hub bonded inside the hub body.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy does the propeller have a rubber hub?\u003c\/strong\u003e The bonded rubber hub in the Michigan Wheel 11028 acts as a cushion, helping protect the shaft, motor, and gear case from damage if the blades strike an object underwater.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the 11028 a cupped propeller?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the Michigan Wheel 11028 uses a cupped blade design for improved grip and holding power.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much does the Michigan Wheel 11028 weigh?\u003c\/strong\u003e This propeller weighs 4.3 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this propeller stronger than the original equipment prop?\u003c\/strong\u003e Michigan Wheel builds the 11028 from finer grade alloys than many original equipment aluminum propellers, resulting in a stronger casting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the Michigan Wheel 11028 come with a warranty?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, it is backed by a limited lifetime manufacturer's warranty from Michigan Wheel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the Michigan Match series?\u003c\/strong\u003e Michigan Match is Michigan Wheel's line of aluminum replacement propellers, of which the 11028 (11.75 x 17, cupped, 3-blade) is a member.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the 11028 an aluminum or stainless steel propeller?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Michigan Wheel 11028 is an aluminum propeller, not stainless steel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat comes in the box with the 11028 propeller?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Michigan Wheel 11028 ships as a complete 3-blade aluminum propeller with the rubber hub already bonded inside.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Michigan Wheel","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48991272435931,"sku":"MIW-011028","price":232.85,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/7586\/4539\/files\/Michigan-Match-3-Blade__57392.1722380348.500.750.jpg?v=1785188931","url":"https:\/\/www.goodvibesmarina.com\/products\/michigan-match-11-3-4-x-17-aluminum-3-blade-cupped-propeller-for-evinrude-johnson-omc-40-75-hp-small-gearcase-through-hub-exhaust","provider":"Good Vibes Marina","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
