21433605 Propeller | Genuine Volvo Penta Part

🔧 Product Description

Genuine Volvo Penta three-blade nibral propeller for Volvo Penta IPS 3, IPS 30, the front half of the type Q5 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.

🔌 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 Q5 designation is what matches the propeller to the hull and lets the engine reach its rated wide-open-throttle speed.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Speed-related vibration felt through the hull and steering
• Engine over-revving or the boat failing to reach its usual speed
• Blade tips chipped, curled or bent from contact damage
• Rough, pitted cavitation erosion on the blade backs
• Rope or fishing line found behind the hub, with the shaft seal weeping

🛠️ Service Notes

• This number is one propeller of a pair - order the Type Q5 rear 21433615 with it, or the complete Q5 set 21433625, because a mismatched pair will not let the engine reach its rated speed
• The Q5 front 21433605 and rear 21433615 are published at 48.988 kg and 15.876 kg, 18.143 kg less than the 83.007 kg published for the set, so the figures do not reconcile - order by the Q5 designation, never by weight
• For commercial running in polluted or debris-laden water Volvo Penta also lists the QE series, which has thicker blades than the Q for extra strength at a slight cost in top speed, and is approved for D13 IPS900, IPS1050 and IPS1200
• Fit front and rear to the same type code - complete set 21433625.
• Line cutter 21686496 is the one listed for Volvo Penta IPS 3, IPS 30.
