🔧 Product Description

Genuine Yamaha K Series 13 x 17 Right-Hand Stainless Steel Propeller - Part Number: 688-45930-02-98 / 688-45930-02-00

A genuine used Yamaha K Series three-blade right-hand black-painted stainless-steel propeller for mid-range Yamaha outboards using the 4 1/4-inch 15-spline gearcase.

The K Series blade and hub package is designed for T50/T60 high-thrust, F70-F115 and selected 60HP-130HP gearcases. Its 17-inch pitch is suited to lighter planing boats capable of carrying the pitch while maintaining the specified wide-open-throttle RPM.

🔌 Function

The propeller converts engine torque into thrust. Stainless blades resist flex under load, while 17 inches of pitch favours efficient cruising and potential speed on a correctly matched hull.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Blades are bent, chipped, cracked or out of track
• The hub slips and engine RPM rises without matching boat speed
• Propeller vibration increases with engine speed
• Cavitation, ventilation or poor acceleration develops after impact damage
• Hub splines, thrust faces or retaining surfaces are worn or corroded
