24044385 Propeller Kit | Genuine Volvo Penta Part

🔧 Product Description

Genuine Volvo Penta three-blade nibral propeller for Volvo Penta IPS 1, IPS 10, the front half of the type T5 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.

📋 Kit Contents

🔌 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 T5 designation is what matches the propeller to the hull and lets the engine reach its rated wide-open-throttle speed.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Vibration felt through the hull or the wheel that builds with engine speed
• The engine no longer reaching its rated wide-open-throttle speed, or running past it against a light load
• Top speed and fuel burn drifting away from the boat's usual figures
• Blade tips bent, chipped or curled back after a grounding or a strike
• Blade faces roughened or pitted by cavitation erosion, or rope and netting wound in behind the propeller

🛠️ Service Notes

• This number is one propeller of a pair - order the Type T5 rear 24044435 with it, or the complete T5 set 23442955, because a mismatched pair will not let the engine reach its rated speed
• The T5 front 24044385 and rear 24044435 are published at 10.363 kg and 8.711 kg, 0.477 kg more than the 18.597 kg published for the set, so the figures do not reconcile - order by the T5 designation, never by weight
• Genuine Volvo Penta propellers carry a 12 month warranty, extended to 24 months including labour when supplied and fitted by an authorised Volvo Penta dealer
• Fit front and rear to the same type code - complete set 23442955.
• Line cutter 23062729 is the one listed for Volvo Penta IPS 1, IPS 10.
