Solas Rubex L3 Plus Aluminum 3-Blade Propeller – 15.5" x 17", Left-Hand Rotation
The Solas Rubex L3 Plus is a large-diameter, squeeze-cast aluminum 3-blade propeller built around the Rubex interchangeable hub system. The “Plus” designation indicates a larger blade diameter than the standard L3 line, making it the right choice for higher-torque applications — particularly Suzuki DF70–140 outboards with a 15-tooth spline.
The 15.5" x 17" pitch in left-hand rotation is designed for counter-rotating twin-engine setups or specific single-engine applications requiring LH rotation. The Rubex system means if the blades are damaged, you only replace the housing — not the entire propeller assembly — keeping replacement costs significantly lower.
Key Features
- Squeeze-cast aluminum construction — denser, stiffer blade than conventional die-cast aluminum for better efficiency and durability
- 15.5" diameter x 17" pitch — larger diameter for increased thrust and torque handling
- L3 Plus design — larger blade diameter than standard L3, recommended for Suzuki DF70–140 (15-tooth spline)
- 3-blade configuration — strong acceleration with good top-end performance
- Left-hand (counter) rotation — for twin-engine setups or LH-specific applications
- Interchangeable hub system — replace only the housing if blades are damaged; hub is reusable
- Rubex E+ Series hub compatible — requires an RBX E+ hub kit, sold separately
Required Hub Kit
This propeller housing requires a Rubex E+ Series RBX hub kit — not the standard E-Series. See the Solas RBX-127 Hub Kit – E+ Series for the correct hub kit. Verify your engine application using the Solas Rubex application chart at rubexprops.com.

Parts Desk Insights
The 9512 L3 Plus line is specifically engineered for larger-displacement outboards — most commonly Suzuki DF70–140 with a 15-tooth spline — that require a larger blade diameter to efficiently handle the engine’s torque output. The left-hand rotation makes this a natural fit for the port-side engine in a counter-rotating twin setup, or for single-engine applications where LH rotation is specified. The 17" pitch is a mid-range option in this line: if the engine is over-revving at WOT, step up to the 14.5" x 19"; if it’s under-revving, this 17" is likely the right starting point. Always confirm the engine requires the E+ Series hub — the RBX-127 is the correct kit for this propeller, not the standard E-Series RBX-102B or RBX-104B. Mixing hub series is a common ordering mistake on this product family.
