Vetus P3B17X Bronze Propeller P3B Ø 17" for 30 mm Shaft
The Vetus P3B17X is a high-quality three-blade fixed-pitch propeller designed for displacement-type vessels operating at speeds up to 10 knots. Constructed from premium manganese bronze, it combines strength, resilience, and corrosion resistance, ensuring consistent performance and long service life. This model is pre-machined for Vetus SA30 (30 mm) shafts to guarantee precise fitment and smooth rotation.
Thanks to its optimized hydrodynamic design and balanced geometry, the P3B17X delivers excellent propulsion efficiency with minimal vibration and cavitation. Its strong yet flexible bronze structure can be repaired if damaged, making it a long-term, cost-effective choice for marine propulsion systems.
