The Acme 540 is a precision-machined 3-blade propeller designed specifically for waterski and wakeboard boats, offering improved acceleration, speed holding, pulling power, and fuel economy. This propeller revolutionized the ski boat industry when Acme introduced CNC machining technology to marine propeller manufacturing.

  • Hub Length: 2.75 inches

  • Material: Nibral (Nickel-Bronze-Aluminum alloy)

Advanced CNC Manufacturing:

All Acme propellers are 100% CNC machined using computer numerically controlled milling machines, providing exceptional accuracy and consistency in producing propellers to exact diameter, pitch, and cup specifications. This manufacturing process allows Acme to hold tolerances and achieve accuracies never before seen in the propeller industry, resulting in larger blade surface area, greater efficiency, and perfectly balanced operation with minimal vibration.

  • Superior holeshot and acceleration compared to traditional cast propellers
  • Smooth, vibration-free operation for comfortable cruising
  • Improved top-end speed and fuel economy
  • Enhanced pulling power for skiing and wakeboarding

Easy to order using Amazon

You seem to have the best price and your pictures help a lot. HOWEVER -- no place did my order say &quot;Mercury Grand Marquis 2003 *Passenger Side* Glass -- and that has me concerned because I have to go by make/model/yr and then picture alone!

found what I was looking for fast .

Great prices

thanks

Lowest price around Basically next day delivery Will be back for more shopping

Hard to find these filters, so big thanks.

<br>Good prices - seemed to be the best online! Shipping seems normal. / Handling time seemed delayed. If quality is good will order from again.

Easy to navigate and detailed descriptions

I have used them a couple times. Always seem to be one of the lowest prices on the internet and pretty quick turnaround on shipping. If you live near Los Angeles, they have a warehouse in Cerritos, so things arrive real quick once they're shipped.

Very good prices.
