In‑Depth Propeller Analysis
Three‑Blade Series: Versatility Meets Value
-
58130‑ZV7‑000ZA
With its traditional 3‑blade layout, 9¼″ diameter and 12″ pitch, this propeller balances top‑end speed with tidy hole shots. Its 235×305 mm hub fits tight on a 10‑spline gearcase, ensuring precise engagement with minimal slop. -
58130‑ZW2‑F11ZA to ‑F41ZA
This family of 3‑blade props shares a 9⅞″ diameter but varies pitch from 9″ to 13″. Smaller pitches (F11ZA, 9″) deliver brisk acceleration—ideal for heavier boats or frequent planing—while larger pitches (F41ZA, 13″) extend top‑end speed for lighter hulls cruising at displacement speeds. Hub bore remains 251 × [229–330] mm, guaranteeing a snug fit and excellent exhaust flow through the hub. -
Generic 9.9″ & 10.25″ Variants
When off‑the‑shelf OEMs don’t quite hit your sweet spot, our generic three‑blade options fill in the gaps. Diameters of 9.9″ or 10.25″ paired with pitches from 9″ to 15″ cover everything from blistering acceleration to fuel‑sipping cruise rpm. All rotate right‑hand for standard Honda steering response.
Four‑Blade Series: Grip and Control
For anglers, watersports enthusiasts and high‑load applications, four blades offer extra bite in the water:
-
4 × 10"/5" & 7"
Small‑pitch, 5″ or 7″ four‑blades bite hard and break free efficiently, trimming engine rpm for a smooth, torque‑rich ride. -
4 × 10"/9"
Mid‑range 9″ pitch provides a blend of thrust and top speed. Perfect for runabouts tackling mixed loads. -
High‑Pitch Four‑Blades (10.1"–10.2" × 11–15")
These models clamp down on the water, turning more bite into thrust when towing skiers or hauling heavy gear. Their right‑hand rotation delivers confident, no‑nonsense handling at all rpm ranges.
How to Choose Your Perfect Fit
-
Boat Load & Hull Type
-
Light, planing hulls often thrive with higher‑pitch, three‑blade props (10″–13″).
-
Heavy displacement craft or fishing pontoons benefit from four blades and lower pitches (5″–9″).
-
-
Desired Performance
-
Quick Acceleration: Lower pitch. Think 9″ or 10″.
-
Top‑End Speed: Higher pitch, like 12″–15″.
-
-
Engine Considerations
-
Keep your Honda’s rpm within the factory‑recommended 5,000–6,000 rpm band.
-
If you’re under‑revving, drop a couple of inches of pitch; over‑revving? Try a larger diameter or more blades.
-
Why These Aluminum Propellers Stand Out
-
Precision Casting: Each blade is formed to exact tolerances, reducing vibration and cavitation.
-
Corrosion Resistance: Premium marine alloys and heat‑treated finishes ward off saltwater and coating wear.
-
Value‑Driven Pricing: Compare quality that rivals OEM at nearly half the price—without cutting corners.
-
Customer‑First Warranty: Enjoy 30 days to test on the water; return for any reason if it’s not a perfect match.
In a nutshell, selecting the right propeller for your 25–30HP Honda outboard doesn’t have to be guesswork. With options ranging from 3‑blade 9¼″×12″ models to aggressive 4‑blade 10.2″×15″ workhorses, you’ll fine‑tune your rig’s performance to match every mission—tubing thrills, fishing trips or weekend cruises.
