Aluminum 3-blade propeller 12.6 × 8.7 in, right-hand rotation, Navy 6.0 / 6.0 Evo (pre-2024)

This propeller is specifically designed for ePropulsion Navy 6.0 and Navy 6.0 Evo outboard electric motors (models manufactured before 2024).

No, this propeller is not compatible with ePropulsion Navy 6.0 or Navy 6.0 Evo motors manufactured from 2024 onwards. It is intended only for versions prior to 2024.

You can usually check the manufacturing date of your motor on its nameplate or in its documentation. This propeller is compatible with Navy 6.0 and 6.0 Evo models produced before 2024.

No, this propeller is exclusively designed for ePropulsion Navy 6.0 and Navy 6.0 Evo outboard electric motors (models prior to 2024). It is not compatible with other brands or motor models.

This specific propeller (N6-LU01-E0) is not compatible with 2024 and later models. ePropulsion offers different propellers for the newer versions of its Navy 6.0 and 6.0 Evo motors.

Yes, this propeller is designed with a right-hand rotation, which is the standard configuration for ePropulsion Navy 6.0 and Navy 6.0 Evo engines (models prior to 2024) for which it is compatible.

No, this propeller is specifically designed for ePropulsion Navy 6.0 and Navy 6.0 Evo motors (models before 2024). It is not compatible with ePropulsion’s Spirit series.

This propeller is made of aluminum.

This propeller is a 3-blade propeller.

Aluminum is a material that offers a good balance between lightness and strength, which is beneficial for marine applications. It is also more affordable than other materials and may deform rather than break on impact, potentially protecting the motor pod.

The weight of this propeller is 0.86 kg.

The propeller pitch (8.7 inches) is the theoretical distance the propeller would travel in one complete rotation if it moved through a solid medium. It directly affects the boat's speed and thrust.

A 3-blade propeller generally offers a good balance between top speed and efficiency, as well as steady thrust. This is a common configuration that works well for versatile use with electric outboard motors.

With a 12.6-inch diameter and an 8.7-inch pitch, this propeller is designed to provide efficient propulsion and a good balance of performance for ePropulsion Navy 6.0 and 6.0 Evo motors (pre-2024), aiming to deliver consistent thrust and good maneuverability.

Yes, installing a propeller generally requires a socket wrench or an open-end wrench to remove and tighten the propeller nut, as well as a new split pin to secure the nut. It is recommended to consult your ePropulsion engine’s user manual for precise instructions.

To maintain your aluminum propeller, rinse it with fresh water after every use in saltwater. Regularly check for debris, algae, or damage (dents, cracks). Gentle cleaning and a visual inspection are sufficient for routine maintenance.

Yes, it is essential to always disconnect the motor’s electrical power before handling the propeller to prevent any accidental start-up. Ensure you also wear gloves to protect yourself from the propeller’s sharp edges and strictly follow the motor manufacturer’s instructions.

If your aluminum propeller is damaged (bent, nicked, or broken blades), it is strongly recommended to replace it. A damaged propeller can cause vibrations, performance loss, and potentially damage the sterndrive or engine.

Replacing a propeller is a relatively simple procedure for most experienced users. It usually involves removing a cotter pin, unscrewing a nut, sliding off the old propeller, then installing the new one in reverse order. It is always advisable to consult your engine’s manual for detailed, specific instructions.
