Installation Notes
- The same hardware (propeller cone, nuts, washers) is used for A, B, and J series propellers.
- A-Series numbering corresponds approximately to J-Series numbering (e.g., A5 ≈ J5).
- B-Series numbering corresponds to one size larger in the J-Series (e.g., B5 ≈ J6).
- Do not mix J-Series propellers with A or B series propellers on the same drive, as this can cause damage.
- For twin engine installations, use only the same propeller type (e.g., J5) on both drives to ensure proper handling and performance.
Troubleshooting & FAQ
What is the difference between J-Series, A-Series, and B-Series propellers?
J-Series are modern aluminum propellers with patented blade geometry for better efficiency. They are designed as replacements for the older A-Series and B-Series props. The numbering is roughly equivalent (A5 ≈ J5), but B-Series props correspond to a larger J-Series size (B5 ≈ J6).
What are the performance limits for this J5 aluminum propeller set?
This set is not recommended for engines exceeding 240 HP or for boat speeds over 38 knots (45 mph). For higher performance applications, it is strongly recommended to use Volvo Penta's Type C stainless steel propellers.
Can I mix a J-Series propeller with an A or B-Series on the same drive?
No. Mixing different propeller series on the same Duoprop drive is not recommended and can lead to poor performance, vibrations, and potential damage to your outdrive.
What are signs that my old Duoprop propellers need replacing?
Common signs include noticeable vibrations, a drop in engine RPM at full throttle, decreased boat speed or performance, and visible damage to the propeller blades such as dings, cracks, or bending.
