The EMP 93-08637 Thrust Washer is a direct-fit replacement for OMC propshafts across a wide range of engines — 3.0L 4-cylinder models from 120 to 130 HP, 4.3L V6 engines from 160 to 165 HP, and 5.0L to 5.8L V8 applications from 200 to 235 HP. That's a solid spread of the OMC sterndrive lineup covered by a single part.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe thrust washer sits between the propeller and the gearcase, managing the axial load that's generated every time the propeller pushes the boat through the water. Forward thrust, reverse braking, and the shock loads from waves and throttle changes all pass through this washer. When it wears thin or becomes damaged, that load transfers to surfaces it wasn't meant to contact — leading to accelerated wear on the propshaft, gearcase housing, or propeller hub. Replacing a worn thrust washer is a straightforward fix that protects a lot of more expensive components downstream.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEMP manufactures the 93-08637 to OEM-equivalent specifications, matching the original thickness, diameter, and material for correct load distribution and a proper fit on compatible OMC propshafts. It installs without modification as part of a propeller service or gearcase rebuild.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eEMP replacement thrust washer\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePart Number: 93-08637\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with OMC 3.0L 4-cyl propshafts, 120–130 HP\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with OMC 4.3L V6 propshafts, 160–165 HP\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with OMC 5.0L–5.8L V8 propshafts, 200–235 HP\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOEM-equivalent thickness, diameter, and material\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDirect replacement — no modification required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eConfirm your engine's model and serial number before ordering.
