# 3826243 Flexible Coupling | Genuine Volvo Penta Part

## 🔧 Product Description

Genuine Volvo Penta flexible coupling from the Engine group, weighing 6.42 kg and listed for 2 TAMD series applications. It consolidates three earlier numbers, 3827193, 853887 and 866628, which were catalogued before as a vibration damper and two clutches, so all three now resolve to this one coupling.

## 🚤 Compatibility

Typically suits:

-   Volvo Penta TAMD63L-A
-   Volvo Penta TAMD63P-A

-   **Engine Family:** TAMD

## ⚙️ Key Features

-   6.42 kg
-   Consolidates 3827193, 853887 and 866628
-   The earlier numbers were listed as a vibration damper and two clutches
-   2 TAMD series applications

## 🔌 Function

Transmits drive between two shafts while absorbing torsional shock and small misalignments.

## ⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

-   Knocking or clonking at idle and when taking up drive
-   A rubbery smell or black dust around the coupling
-   Vibration that comes and goes with engine speed
-   Elastic element cracked, perished or parting from its metal
-   Bolt holes elongated and the fixings found loose

## 🛠️ Service Notes

-   Because three earlier numbers now point here, cross-check the old number on the removed part before assuming it is wrong
-   Check shaft alignment when fitting, as a flexible coupling absorbs misalignment but is destroyed by it
-   Vibration damper 3826416 is a separate heavier part and not an alternative to this coupling
