| Post subject: | Really big prop and hub |
today, over on WIX Facebook, I posted on a prop I now own that I'd like to know about, as in what is it off of. Half off to the person who can press the hub assembly. Man, but it's heavy. Any info would be most appreciated, including if there is a market for hubs. blades for sale, too. Thanks. |

3 blade hub, with 75" or so blades puts the diameter at roughly a 13' prop. That diameter means an R2600 or R3350 if it was CW powered, and R2800 or R4360 if it was Pratt. There should be a 4 digit blade code stamped on the bottom of the shank and that can help narrow down the possible usage, as would knowing the hub spline too. |
