It is manufactured to the original Volvo Penta dimensions and interface requirements so the driven component remains concentric, aligned and securely coupled. In service, it transfers mechanical drive between the matched gear-train components at the specified ratio and timing. Fitment is controlled by the exact engine or product configuration and serialised parts list; confirm OEM number 1556173 against the installed assembly before ordering.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\n ⚙️ Key Features\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Genuine Volvo Penta OEM gear\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  OEM part number 1556173\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Inspect keyways, splines, shafts, fasteners and mating faces; verify run-out, alignment, backlash where applicable and specified torque before operation.\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\n 🔌 Function\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n Transfers mechanical drive between the matched gear-train components at the specified ratio and timing.
