Propeller pitch

[Ghg]

I have a propeller and am trying to determine the pitch, it has a marking of MW 0060 on the side and other stampings on the hub, see attached photo. It’s for a 67 Mercruiser 120

probably a Michigan Wheel prop...given the age and application, probably nothing on the internet.

I'd say ask them directly: https://www.miwheel.com/contact-us/

The number on the side is probably a rebuilder's mark.

SMC 382C is the OLD Michigan Wheel part number. That is a cupped 15X23 OLD style mid 70s prop. It was later replaced by P/N 031039. Both are no longer available.

You will most likely need to go with one the 14X21 cupped props that replace it. Regardless of Mercury OEM, Michigan, Solas or other I suspect all you will find is the new style replaceable hub models. These ALL will require you to upgrade your thrust hub as I pointed out a few weeks ago.

Ok, thanks for the information. I didn’t think something as simple as a prop could be that difficult to replace

Trust me, when they switched hubs 40 years ago I saw lost props & damaged gear cases. I/O & outboards both.
