6E5-45947-00-EL 6E5-45947-00-00 Yamaha K Series 13 1/2 x 15 Aluminium Propeller – RH 15 Spline | Genuine Used Part

🔧 Product Description

Genuine Yamaha K Series 13 1/2 x 15 Aluminium Propeller - Part Number: 6E5-45947-00-EL / 6E5-45947-00-00

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

Despite the supplied stainless-steel description, this part number identifies an aluminium propeller. The 15-inch pitch provides stronger acceleration and load carrying than the 17- or 19-pitch K Series options.

⚙️ Key Features

• Genuine Yamaha Marine K Series propeller
• 13 1/2-inch diameter x 15-inch pitch

• HP Range: 50HP high-thrust and approximately 60HP - 130HP
• Engine Type: Yamaha two-stroke or four-stroke outboard with K-series 15-spline gearcase
• Year Range: Approximately 1980s onward, model and gearcase controlled

🔌 Function

The propeller converts engine torque into thrust. The 15-inch pitch supports strong planing, acceleration and load carrying while allowing more engine RPM than a higher-pitch propeller.

⚠️ 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
