This Polastorm Saltist 3-blade duplex stainless steel propeller has a diameter of 14 3/4", a pitch of 19", and right-hand rotation. The propeller is designed for outboards with a 4 3/4" gearcase and is recommended for engines in the 200–250 hp range when combined with the correct engine-specific hub kit.
The propeller is manufactured from ASTM A890 Grade 4A duplex stainless steel with a polished finish. The high chromium content of the duplex steel provides increased corrosion resistance, while APC precision casting contributes to high material density and physical strength. The Saltist blade geometry consists of three blades and belongs to propeller group E.
The interchangeable hub system allows the propeller blade to be adapted to various engine shafts and spline configurations. The propeller is supplied without an engine-specific hub kit and without a propeller nut/damper. These parts must therefore be selected separately based on engine make, model, power, year, gearcase, shaft diameter, and spline count.
The propeller profile corresponds to the Solas Rubex HR3 and Solas HR Titan. The documented dimensional cross-reference for the Rubex HR3 is Solas 9551-148-19. The reference describes the propeller profile and dimensions, but is not in itself documentation for an identical hub or engine-specific mounting kit.
Compatibility
The propeller blade is designed for 4 3/4" gearcases and can be used with relevant engine-specific hub kits for, among others, Mercury, Yamaha, Honda, Suzuki, OMC, Johnson, Evinrude, and Tohatsu. Final compatibility always depends on the correct hub kit as well as the engine's approved diameter and pitch range.
Manufacturer and reference numbers
The Polastorm manufacturer number is 5789-3148-19, and the short model code is S3R. Solas 9551-148-19 is a documented cross-reference for a right-hand 14 3/4" x 19" Rubex HR3 propeller with an interchangeable hub.
Selection of hub kit
Documented hub kits in the 4 3/4" class include item no. 52.580.02 and 52.580.03 for specified Mercury applications, 52.581.03 for specified Yamaha applications, 52.582.06 for specified BRP, Johnson, and Evinrude applications, 52.583.02 for specified Tohatsu and Nissan applications, and 52.586.01 for Volvo SX Sterndrive from 1994. The correct hub kit must be selected based on the specific engine installation.
Always check the engine/drive model, gearcase, propeller shaft, spline count, and original part number before purchasing.
