Description
The Prop Protector rope and weed cutter is a simple shaft driven blade, rotating with the shaft and instantly cutting any rope, weed or debris picked up or snagged by the propeller. This rope cutter suits 2-1/2″ shafts and features a 116mm cutting blade.
Manufactured from high grade (316) stainless steel, the Prop Protector rope and weed cutter is easy to install – fully installed in minutes, with your boat out of the water or between tides.
The Prop Protector rope and weed cutter sits on the shaft, between the propeller hub and the stern bearing, waiting to cut anything that threatens to entangle it. There are no moving parts to fail – just a razor sharp marine grade stainless steel blade, ready to slice through most marine debris.
This clamp-on Prop Protector weed and rope cutter is supplied as an assembly that is split into two halves along the longitudinal axis so that it can be installed on the shaft without removing the propeller.
The rope cutter is clamped onto the shaft by two Allen screws and is also fixed by a set screw that locates into a small drill dimple made in the shaft.
Prop Protector rope and weed cutters are NOT designed to be used with outboard engines, stern drive engines or Saildrives.
