This cotter pin for Johnson/Evinrude outboard motors measures 3.2 x 32 mm and is used to secure the propeller fastening on the propeller shaft. The variant is specified for the Johnson/Evinrude 6 hp with the relevant propeller cone and OEM cotter pin 305296.
The cotter pin functions as a mechanical lock between the propeller shaft and the propeller nut or mounting cone. When installed correctly, it prevents the fastening from loosening during operation.
For installation, the cotter pin is inserted through the appropriate hole in the propeller shaft and the nut or cone fastener. The legs of the cotter pin are then bent to lock the fastening in place. The nominal product dimensions are 3.2 mm in diameter and 32 mm in length.
The spare part cross-references to OEM numbers 305296 and 0305296. Known OEM applications include the 1987 Johnson 6 hp J6RLCUD and the 1976 Evinrude 6 hp 6605A. The OEM number also appears in documentation for the 1958 Evinrude 10 hp model 10017; therefore, compatibility must be determined based on the engine model and original part number rather than horsepower alone.
Always check the engine/drive model and original part number before purchase.
