# 3583917 Propeller Blade Kit | Genuine Volvo Penta Part

## 🔧 Product Description

Genuine Volvo Penta blade kit for the 4-blade folding propeller for 55-120 hp. Designed for engines from 55 up to 120 hp. Available in multiple sizes and pitches for both S-drives and shafts, in 20 x 14 in. Volvo Penta folding propellers give minimal drag while sailing combined with the high thrust of a fixed propeller while motoring, even in reverse. The patented design, with protruding blade tips, opens the blades instantly as the propeller starts to turn, and the swept high-skew blade design keeps running smooth and quiet with minimal vibration. Reduced drag under sail increases speed by up to 1.5 knots compared with a fixed propeller.

## 🚤 Compatibility

-   **Engine Family:** D, HS, MS
-   **HP Range:** 13-480 HP
