V600CP Sliding Dog Prop Release Overview
The V600CP Sliding Dog Ski Race Prop Release (Part Number AM1053) serves as a precise safety mechanism in ski-race V-Drive setups. It engages the propeller shaft using a sliding dog design and disengages cleanly under sudden reversal torque. Importantly, this protects internal components while maintaining controlled propulsion.
Features
-
Case-hardened EN36A steel ensures exceptional wear resistance
-
Ski-race-style sliding dog release allows precise, rapid disengagement
-
Built-in ¼″ keyway offers secure and accurate shaft mounting
Specifications and Materials
This release is made from EN36A steel, offering a hard external surface and a resilient core. As such, it delivers both durability and impact resistance. Moreover, its fit requires clean shaft surfaces and accurate key alignment for reliable engagement and disengagement.
Compatibility and Fitment
Specifically engineered for Argo V-Drive gearboxes, this sliding dog release suits high-performance ski racing applications. Ensure your drive model supports sliding-dog prop releases, and confirm that you have correct shaft clearance before installing.
Compliance and Safety
Because this release disengages under sudden reverse load, it prevents damage to the gearbox and shaft. Therefore, after installing, test the system at idle and low throttle to verify smooth release and positive reengagement.
Marine Applications
This prop release is ideal for ski boats and performance craft where rapid directional changes and impacts are frequent. Additionally, the sliding dog mechanism maintains drive control while safeguarding against drivetrain shock.
