## 🔌 Function

Clamps the propeller onto its shaft taper and holds it against thrust and torque in both directions.

## ⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

-   Vibration under power that was not there before
-   Nut found slack, or the locking arrangement disturbed
-   Thread damaged, pulled or corroded
-   Fretting marks where the propeller has moved on the taper
-   Propeller loose on the shaft when checked by hand

## 🛠️ Service Notes

-   Torque to specification on a clean dry taper and fit the locking arrangement properly — a propeller working loose at sea is dangerous
-   40005157 is the heavier nut on the same fitment list, so confirm which your drive takes
-   Renew any tab washer or locking device at the same time
