Polastorm propeller hub kit for Mercury, model F21, is a replaceable, rubber-cushioned hub kit with 15 splines. It is used for mounting compatible Polastorm propellers without an integrated hub on Mercury outboards and documented MerCruiser sterndrives.
The PolaFlex system places a replaceable propeller hub between the propeller shaft and the propeller. The hub/cushion component is made of brass and rubber, which connects the drivetrain to the propeller and acts as a cushion hub.
The kit consists of a cushion/drive hub, thrust washer, front washer, spacer, and nut. The parts make up the necessary hub and mounting kit for a compatible propeller.
Compatibility
The F21 variant is intended for 15-spline propeller shafts and a gearcase with a diameter of 4 3/4" (120.7 mm). The documented engine range is 90 CT–400 hp.
