Common Concerns Answered
Is a hub kit included with this propeller?
No, the hub kit is not included and must be purchased separately to ensure proper fitment and function with your specific outboard motor.
Could the pitch be too aggressive for my engine?
The 15" pitch is designed for optimal performance on a range of 6-75hp outboards, but selecting the correct pitch is crucial. Consult your engine's owner manual or a marine technician to confirm if this pitch is suitable for your specific engine and boat combination to avoid over-revving or under-performance.
Why do some customers mention the need for an additional purchase?
The primary additional purchase required is a hub kit, which is sold separately to guarantee compatibility with the vast array of outboard motors within the 6-75hp range, ensuring correct installation and operation.
