#19 SHEAR PIN 550181 MPN-550181

Ensure the continued safe operation of your marine propulsion system with the #19 Shear Pin, part number 550181, conveniently packaged in a box of five. As a crucial component of propeller hardware, this shear pin serves as a vital safety feature, designed to protect your propeller and drive train from damage. When the propeller encounters an obstruction, such as submerged debris, rocks, or other solid objects, the #19 Shear Pin is engineered to break. This action disconnects the propeller from the engine's drive shaft, preventing the transmission of excessive force that could lead to catastrophic damage to more expensive engine components. It’s an essential item for any boater focused on reliability and preventing costly repairs.

• Key Features
• Protective Shear Design: Breaks under impact to prevent damage to the propeller and drivetrain.
• Cost-Effective Safety: Acts as a sacrificial part to avoid expensive repairs.
• Marine Environment Ready: Constructed to withstand the rigors of saltwater and freshwater use.
• Convenient 5-Pack: Provides multiple replacements for proactive maintenance.
• Reliable Protection: Ensures the integrity of your marine propulsion system.

The #19 Shear Pin is more than just a small metal pin; it's a critical safety component for your marine engine. Its primary role is to shear off when the propeller hits an underwater obstacle, effectively acting as a fuse for your propulsion system. This prevents the immense torque from damaging the gearbox, drive shaft, or other internal engine parts. By sacrificing itself, the shear pin saves you from significant repair bills and extensive downtime. This specific shear pin is designed for a #19 size application, ensuring a proper fit and function with compatible propeller and drive systems. Having a spare pack readily available is a smart maintenance practice for any boat owner.

This #19 Shear Pin exemplifies the importance of specialized propeller hardware in maintaining the health of your marine investment. It provides a high level of protection against the unpredictable nature of submerged objects. For boaters who prioritize the longevity and performance of their outboard or stern drive, having these shear pins on hand is a necessity. It’s a small, affordable part that delivers substantial peace of mind and protection, underlining its value in the realm of marine propulsion.
