Volvo Penta Propeller
Developing a new propeller takes over one year of computer calculations to
ensure the props are equally efficient at any speed and under any load.
Cavitation tunnel test, real-life close-up studies of prototypes and boat
testing. All this, to determine that the feel is perfect and what performance
they give. We continuously develop the entire package: engine, drive and
propellers.
A correct choice of propeller is absolutely vital to get the most out of your
engine and boat. Their performance decides whether the power produced by your
engine and drive is turned into boat performance - or not. And it's not only
size and pitch that matters. Genuine Volvo Penta propellers are designed for
their specific task. The wide range covers propellers for shaft installations,
single-propeller drives, Duoprop drives and saildrives as well as for the
revolutionary IPS.
Production quality is exceptional with minimized tolerances, ensuring high and
reliable performance, year after year. Volvo Penta propellers are perfectly
matched to engine characteristics and drive hydrodynamics. This gives you the
best overall efficiency, which benefits you and the environment as you reduce
fuel consumption. It also gives your engine and drive a long service life, as
they work with the load they've been designed for.
Super-Strength Material
The different materials used are all super-strength and crafted for
propeller duty. This gives a certain built-in flexibility. The material handles
the forces without bending or breaking.
The Efficiency
A combination of curving, blade surface and cavitation design. Only when all
these factors are perfect do you get maximum efficiency.
The Balance
Each propeller is perfectly in balance, in weight, size and cavitation.
Essential for secure grip in curves and driving safety.
The Bushings
Much more than a piece of rubber! Each propeller has its bushing
specifically adapted to handle turning and pulling forces. The bushing gets its
final shape and performance when the correct fastening torque is applied.
Essential for smooth shifting and long drive-train lifetime.
This propeller is stainless steel and is for:
- Duoprop "GR" Series DPR Drive. DPR Drive thru-hub exhaust.
- This product is just one propeller, if you need both then buy the set.
