Michigan Wheel 161003 14-1/2 x 19 Right Hand Aluminum 3-Blade Propeller for Volvo Penta SX / OMC Cobra Sterndrive

The Michigan Wheel 161003 is a 14-1/2 inch diameter, 19 inch pitch, right-hand rotation, three-blade aluminum propeller built for Volvo Penta SX/SX Cobra and OMC Cobra sterndrive applications with a 4-3/4 inch gearcase, thru-hub exhaust, and 19 tooth spline. It is part of the Michigan Match propeller line, engineered as a direct-fit primary propeller as well as an affordable spare for boaters who want factory-matched performance without the cost of a premium wheel.

Each Michigan Match propeller uses a Naval brass spindle paired with a rubber cushioned hub that absorbs shifting and impact shock, and the rubber bushing is designed to spin free under significant impact to help reduce the risk of lower unit damage. The three-blade design is well balanced for smooth operation, and the aluminum alloy blades are finished in a high-gloss black powder coat for corrosion resistance and durability. A hub kit is included, so the propeller is ready to install out of the box.

This propeller is suited to a wide range of boat types, including inflatables, aluminum consoles, walleye boats, offshore singles, pontoons, ski boats, family cruisers, workboats, and houseboats. It is intended for Volvo Penta SX/SX Cobra and OMC Cobra I/O drives.
