Enfield model 130 Z Drives may be used with engines producing up to 140 lbsft (19 Kgm) maximum torque.  For petrol engines this is equal to approximately 130 HP.  When diesel engines are used, the horse power may be 70-80 HP depending on the make and type of engine.  The Enfield Z Drive can only be used with engines which rotate anti-clockwise when viewed from aft.

Close or distance coupled to any inboard engine, the drive can take a propellor up to 14" (355mm) diameter through reduction of 1.65:1.  Propellor rotation is standard left hand; right hand is available for use with counter rotating twin installations.

Swivel and non-swivel versions are available.

Key Benefits

Swivel unit weighs only 104 lbs (47Kgs), and is ready to bolt direct to your transom. Inboard cranking means that the swivel model can lift athwartships for easy parking and maintenance, and lift 55° rearward to help avoid underwater obstructions.
The non-swivelling model embodies all the features of the swivel model with the exception of the athwartships parking mode, but has the advantage of a price and weight reduction to 90lbs (41 Kgs), and a greater lifing angle of 70°.
DIY users will find fitting simple and straightforward.
