Hamilton Standard 2D30 Hubs & 6095A-12 blades (Pics)

Tue Apr 24, 2018 10:03 am

I was wondering if anyone can help me identify the following 2D30 hubs and if the following blades might be good.

1) The hub shown I believe is for a Wright R-975. I'm having a hard time identifying the exact model hub though. Note the vented yoke.

2) The second hub shown is marked as a 2D30-301, which I'm having hard time finding any info on as well.

3) I recently had a set of blades measured by my local prop shop which they "guessed" to be 6101A blades. Afterwards I pulled the hub and found they were actually 6095A-12's. They failed them as 6101A's and moved on, I was wondering if anyone can help me identify if these blades are good as 6095A-12's ?
