872533 Propeller Shaft | Genuine Volvo Penta Part

🔧 Product Description

Genuine Volvo Penta propeller shaft from the Marine Propulsion group, weighing 2.272 kg and listed for 44 applications across the AD, D, TMD, DP, SP and MS series. It replaces part number 852181. Only 4 grams separate it from propeller shaft 872393, so weight is no guide - the two are told apart by their application lists.

🚤 Compatibility

• Engine Family: AD, D, TMD, DP, SP, MS, TAMD, MD, KAD, KAMD

⚙️ Key Features

• Replaces 852181
• 2.272 kg
• Listed for 44 applications across six series
• Almost identical in weight to 872393 - order by application, not weight
• Rated 275 A

🔌 Function

Carries the propeller and passes the drive torque out to it, running in the bearings of the lower unit.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Vibration that persists after the propeller has been checked or changed
• Splines worn, twisted or rounded at the propeller end
• Seal running surface grooved so the lower unit weeps
• Shaft bent, showing as run-out when rolled
• Bearing journals scored, blued or pitted

🛠️ Service Notes

• Spinner 872549 also replaces 852181, so a job written up against that old number may need more than one of the current parts
• Renew the shaft seals and check the bearings whenever the shaft comes out
• Propeller shaft 872393 is the near-identical part for the DPX applications
