Volvo Penta Ring 3852294

Volvo Penta 3852294 is a genuine OEM ring / spacer ring used in Volvo Penta marine propulsion upper gear unit assemblies. Current parts references place this part in DP-G and DuoProp upper gear unit diagrams, where it is identified as a spacer ring within the upper gear assembly rather than a general service consumable.

Key Features

• Genuine Volvo Penta OEM part, reference 3852294.
• Identified in current parts references as a ring / spacer ring.
• Shown in Volvo Penta upper gear unit schematics for DP-G / marine propulsion applications.
• Current distributor listings show an approximate part weight around 0.13 to 0.14 lb.

Engine Compatibility

Current references support this part for Volvo Penta DuoProp drive upper gear unit applications, including DP-G upper gear unit parts breakdowns. The strongest supportable application is the upper gear assembly itself, so this part is best matched by exact drive model and schematic position rather than by engine name alone.

Serial Number Fitment Notice

Verify fitment by Volvo Penta drive model, upper gear unit diagram, and serial number before ordering. With upper gear components like 3852294, matching the exact gearcase family and parts breakdown is the safest way to avoid ordering a visually similar but incorrect ring.

When This Part Needs Replacement

Replace this ring during upper gear service when the original shows wear, deformation, scoring, or damage, or when inspection of the upper gear assembly calls for renewal of the spacer component. Because it is part of the upper gear stack-up, correct condition and correct thickness relationship matter during reassembly. This is a practical service inference based on its identified role as a spacer ring in the upper gear unit.

Installation Notes

Install only after confirming the exact Volvo Penta upper gear unit diagram for the drive being serviced. This part appears in current exploded views as a spacer ring in the upper gear assembly, so orientation, adjacent hardware, and assembly order should be checked against the correct schematic during service.

Alternate/Superseded Part Numbers

A current distributor cross-reference lists Volvo Penta 854192 as a related or replaced reference for 3852294. Treat that relationship as a catalog cross-reference and confirm against the exact drive application before substituting.

Parts Desk Insight

This is the kind of part that is easy to misorder because “ring” sounds generic. For 3852294, the important match is the exact upper gear unit and drive family, not just the part name, since spacer rings can look simple but still be specific to the assembly they sit in.
