Description
SOLAS Yamaha Intake Grate #YB-IG-B is a high-performance, precision-engineered upgrade designed to optimize jet pump efficiency and watercraft handling. Built specifically for classic stand-up and sport personal watercraft (PWC), it focuses on maximizing hook-up and eliminating pump starvation.
Specifications & Performance Features
- Materials & Finish: Constructed from heavy-duty cast aluminum. It is finished with an epoxy powder coating and electrical deposition paint to provide exceptional resistance against corrosion and abrasion in harsh marine environments.
- Single Foil Design: Features a central airfoil section that actively scoops and drives a consistent volume of water directly into the pump.
- Cavitation Elimination: By optimizing the hydrodynamic flow to the impeller, it significantly reduces cavitation and prevents the pump from spinning out in rough water.
- Handling & Acceleration: Greatly improves hook-up ability and rough-water traction. This translates to quicker acceleration off the line and more stable, predictable handling through sharp turns or choppy conditions.
- Installation: Designed as a direct, easy bolt-on replacement using standard mounting points.
Model Compatibility
