Mangrove Products Boat Transom Saver, Outboard Motor Support

The TS-Pipe from Mangrove Products is a versatile and easy-to-use solution designed to support and brace outboard motors during trailering, preventing unwanted movement or momentum on the tilt/trim unit and transom. This universal product is compatible with a wide range of outboard motor brands, including Yamaha, Mercury, Suzuki, Evinrude, Honda, and Tohatsu, specifically for those with 3-RAM hydraulic tilt/trim systems.

The key features of the TS-Pipe include its easy installation, without the need for drilling or special tools. Simply tilt the engine up, insert the high-pressure TS-Pipe into the tilt/trim piston, and then trim down - the process is quick and straightforward, eliminating the need to bend over or get on your knees. Unlike traditional metal transom savers, the TS-Pipe's rubber construction minimizes the risk of metal-to-skeg scraping and rust, making it suitable for use in both saltwater and freshwater environments.

The upgraded design of the TS-Pipe incorporates a high-density EPDM rubber formula, which has been trial-tested and constructed with enhanced durability by Mangrove Products. The mold design allows for versatility in accommodating larger outboard motor classes, with a wider diameter base to provide more surface area coverage and minimize movement. The extended length of the TS-Pipe also allows for greater skeg ground clearance, while the recessed entry hold ensures a seamless fit with the piston seal.

Boasting a double-walled ABS liner and a bonded ABS octagon mold, the TS-Pipe also features an injected glow-in-the-dark liner, adding a touch of convenience and visibility during low-light conditions. This innovative design simplifies the boating experience by eliminating the need for straps, ropes, bungies, bolts, or brackets, making trailering your boat to your favorite fishing spot or family boating day a hassle-free endeavor.

The TS-Pipe's compression properties also help to reduce strain on the transom when encountering bumps on the roadway, ensuring a smoother and more stable trailering experience. It's important to note that the rubber wedge's flexing during compression is a normal part of the process, designed to effectively absorb shocks and protect your outboard motor.

To ensure a perfect fit, the TS-Pipe is available in different configurations to accommodate various outboard motor models and horsepower ranges. For Yamaha 4-stroke/2-stroke models ranging from F225 to F450XTO, one or two pipes may be required. For Mercury ProXS/4-stroke/2-stroke models from 150 to 250 hp, one or two pipes are recommended, while the 300 hp models require two pipes. Similarly, Suzuki DF/SS models from 140 to 250 hp use one or two pipes, and the DF 300-350 hp models require two pipes. The TS-Pipe is also compatible with Tohatsu MFS/BFT models from 75 to 250 hp, as well as Honda BF models from 75 to 250 hp and Evinrude E-TEC HO (1st Gen) models from 140 to 300 hp.
