Gori 15x12x3RH Folding Propeller – 3-Blade, Ø15", Pitch 12", Right-Hand, for 30 mm ISO Shaft with Overdrive Function
The Gori 15x12x3RH is a high-performance 3-blade folding propeller designed for 30 mm ISO shafts. Introduced in 1994 and honored with both the DAME and HISWA Awards, it offers an advanced solution for marine propulsion, ideal for sailing yachts and motor sailers.
Key Features
- 3-blade folding design minimizes drag under sail
- Overdrive function allows pitch adjustment while underway
- Superior thrust in both forward and reverse
- Prevents debris entanglement and reduces noise/vibration
- Made from high-grade Nibral and stainless steel
Specifications
- Diameter: Ø15"
- Pitch: 12"
- Blades: 3
- Rotation: Right-Hand (RH)
- Shaft Compatibility: 30 mm ISO Shaft
- Engine Range: 10–300+ hp (7–221 kW+)
Overdrive Function
The exclusive Overdrive function allows the helmsman to increase pitch while moving forward, providing greater thrust at lower RPMs without using hydraulics. This improves fuel efficiency, reduces engine wear, and minimizes noise and vibration under power.
Under Sail Advantages
The propeller folds to a low-profile shape, drastically reducing drag and increasing boat speed under sail. Its unique design prevents fouling by seaweed or plastic and removes the need for a shaft brake with hydraulic gearboxes.
Engine Performance
Independent tests show up to +15% greater efficiency in both advance and reverse compared to other folding or rotary blade propellers. This gain comes from the optimized curvature and rotation of the blades, especially under low engine power conditions.
Professional Quality
With over 25 years of proven performance, Gori Propeller remains a market leader in folding propeller technology. Each unit is individually numbered for quality assurance and future service traceability.
