#23 SHEAR PIN 550221 MPN-550221

Introducing the #23 SHEAR PIN 550221, an essential piece of hardware designed to protect your marine propulsion system. This shear pin is engineered to be a critical safety component, ensuring that if your propeller encounters an obstruction, the pin will shear, preventing more extensive and costly damage to your lower unit and propeller. It's a small but vital part of maintaining your boat's performance and longevity.

• Key Features
• Safety Mechanism: Designed to shear under excessive force, protecting critical drivetrain components from damage.
• Reliable Protection: Acts as a sacrificial element, absorbing impact and preventing costly repairs.
• This #23 SHEAR PIN 550221 is a fundamental component for any boater who values the integrity of their vessel's propulsion. Its primary function is to safeguard your propeller and lower unit from catastrophic damage. When your propeller strikes an underwater object, such as a submerged log or rock, the force can be immense. Instead of transferring this shock directly to the gearbox, the shear pin is designed to break at a predetermined stress point. This action effectively disconnects the propeller from the engine's driveshaft, thereby absorbing the brunt of the impact and preventing damage to more expensive components. This sacrificial nature makes it an indispensable part for maintaining the operational health of your boat. Regular replacement of shear pins is a recommended maintenance practice, especially after an incident or as part of routine servicing, to ensure continued protection.
