# 24044396 Propeller Kit | Genuine Volvo Penta Part

## 🔧 Product Description

Genuine Volvo Penta three-blade nibral propeller for Volvo Penta IPS 1, IPS 10, the front half of the type TS6 counter-rotating pair. It is machined from the specially developed nibral (nickel-bronze-aluminium) alloy Volvo Penta uses for its IPS propellers, which gives minimum growth, excellent durability and corrosion resistance. Volvo Penta IPS turns the propellers round to a forward-facing position, so the twin counter-rotating propellers pull the boat through the water rather than push it, and optimal interaction between the front and rear propeller holds performance and fuel efficiency across the whole speed range.

## 📋 Kit Contents

-   1 × Type TS6 3-blade front Nibral propeller - Part Number: 24044396

## 🔌 Function

Meets the water first, ahead of the drive, and turns engine torque into thrust as the leading half of the counter-rotating pair. The TS6 designation is what matches the propeller to the hull and lets the engine reach its rated wide-open-throttle speed.

## ⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

-   Vibration through the pod that increases with boat speed
-   Blade tips chipped, bent or curled after striking the bottom, a log or debris
-   Engine speed climbing with little thrust, which points to a spun hub bushing
-   Loss of top speed or a change in the speed the engine will pull at full throttle
-   Rope, netting or fishing line wound tightly around the propeller hub

## 🛠️ Service Notes

-   This number is one propeller of a pair - order the Type TS6 rear 24044446 with it, or the complete TS6 set 23442966, because a mismatched pair will not let the engine reach its rated speed
-   In every size in this run where a set and both its propellers carry a published weight, the two propeller weights do not add up to the set weight, so weight identifies nothing here - order by the designation
-   Genuine Volvo Penta propellers carry a 12 month warranty, extended to 24 months including labour when supplied and fitted by an authorised Volvo Penta dealer
-   Fit front and rear to the same type code - complete set 23442966.
-   Line cutter 23062729 is the one listed for Volvo Penta IPS 1, IPS 10.
