Product Description
6B4-42646-00-00
Plate, Clamp, Yamaha,
For Outboard: Yamaha 9.9, Yamaha 15
Features:
1. Flat, Sturdy Design: The clamp plate is typically a flat, robust metal plate designed to distribute the pressure applied by the transom clamp evenly across the surface of the boat's transom. |
2. Corrosion Resistance: It is treated to resist corrosion, especially important for outboards used in marine environments where exposure to water (both fresh and salt) is frequent. |
3. High Tensile Strength: The clamp plate is designed to withstand significant pressure and prevent any slipping or loosening of the motor when the boat is in use. |
Functions:
1. Secures the Motor: The primary function of the clamp plate is to provide a stable connection between the outboard motor and the boat transom. It helps lock the motor in place, preventing any movement or wobbling during operation. |
2. Distributes Load: The clamp plate evenly distributes the pressure exerted by the bolts or clamps across the transom, minimizing the risk of damage to the boat and ensuring a more secure fit. |
3. Absorbs Vibration: It may also play a role in dampening some of the vibrations generated by the engine, helping to create a smoother, quieter ride and reducing stress on the transom. |
Maintenance Tips:
1. Regular Inspection for Corrosion: Check the clamp plate periodically for signs of rust or corrosion, especially if the motor is used in saltwater. Corrosion can weaken the plate, reducing its effectiveness in securing the motor. |
2. Tighten Bolts or Clamps: Ensure that the mounting bolts or clamps securing the plate are tight. Loose bolts can lead to movement of the motor, causing instability or potential damage. |
3. Check for Wear and Tear: Inspect the clamp plate for any signs of bending, cracking, or wear. If the plate appears damaged, it should be replaced to avoid compromising the stability of the outboard motor. |
4. Flush with Fresh Water: If the motor is used in saltwater, flush the area around the clamp plate and the transom with fresh water after each use to prevent salt buildup and corrosion. |
Common Issues and Symptoms:
1. Motor Instability: If the motor feels unstable or shifts during use, it could indicate that the clamp plate is not properly secured, or the bolts have come loose. |
2. Corrosion or Rust: Visible corrosion on the clamp plate, especially near the bolts or clamps, can lead to weakening of the metal and should be addressed immediately. |
3. Vibration or Noise: Increased vibration or rattling noises from the motor may be a sign that the clamp plate is not properly tightened or is damaged, allowing the motor to move slightly on the transom. |
