3588225 Propeller | Genuine Volvo Penta Part

🔧 Product Description

Type C is the stainless steel Duoprop range for the classic Volvo Penta 280, 290 and DP Aquamatic sterndrives, and is the upgrade Volvo Penta offers for enhanced performance, strength and durability. Greater strength allows thinner blades, which give better acceleration and a higher top speed than a comparable aluminium propeller, and the stainless steel makes the propellers durable and highly resistant to cavitation, damage and corrosion. A shock-absorbing rubber bushing and galvanic isolation are built into the hub. This number supplies the complete C5 pair, front propeller 3587867 and rear propeller 3587873. Every set of Duoprop propellers is designed, tested and manufactured together, so the front and rear propellers of a dimension belong to each other.

🔌 Function

Converts engine torque into thrust through two contra-rotating propellers on the same shaft, so the rear blades work in straightened water.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Vibration that builds with engine speed
• Boat unable to reach its usual speed or engine revs
• Blade edges chipped or curled after a grounding
• Hub slipping so the engine revs without driving the boat
• Pitting and stripped surface from cavitation

🛠️ Service Notes

• The C5 and C6 sets are published at exactly the same 15.218 kg, so weight cannot separate this from 3588226 - order strictly by the dimension code
• Fit as a matched set with new locking hardware, and check the anodes and seals on the drive while you are there
