Solas 9574-160-18 Rubex L4 Stainless Steel 4-Blade Propeller 16 x 18

The Solas Rubex L4 9574-160-18 is a 4-blade stainless steel marine propeller measuring 16 inches in diameter with an 18-inch pitch, engineered as a high-performance replacement for Bravo I stern drive applications. Built on the Solas RUBEX interchangeable hub system, this propeller delivers outstanding versatility across a wide range of outboard and stern drive setups.

Key Features:

• 4-blade stainless steel construction for durability and superior performance over aluminum alternatives
• High rake and cupped blade design delivers excellent stern lift and rapid acceleration
• RUBEX interchangeable hub (RBX) system — hub kit sold separately, allowing one prop shell to fit multiple engine applications
• Bravo I propeller replacement — designed to directly replace MerCruiser Bravo I stern drive propellers
• 16-inch diameter x 18-inch pitch for strong mid-range and top-speed performance
• Excellent top speed capability with very smooth, vibration-reduced operation

The Rubex L4 series features Solas' signature interchangeable hub design, which eliminates periodic re-torquing of the prop nut and minimizes chatter and vibration common with conventional hub systems. A Rubex hub kit is required for installation and must be purchased separately based on your specific engine model.
