In the US they are considered on Condition. Lube and Insp and repair when it's condition warrants. Other countries have their own guidelines to follow. Ham Std hasn't supported this prop in decades. Various prop shops can probably give guidance. |

You can get the Operation, Service, & Overhaul Manual for these props from Lance. |

I found out that propellers installed on British registered aircraft are subject to CAA Generic Requirement No. 17. This dictates inspections every 6 years. |

There is also a requirement to conduct propeller tracking after every prop replacement - I know of no limits for this so wondered if anyone else has done this - and what is considered acceptable for a Harvard's Hamilton Standard prop? |

Forgive me if this is not relevant, but my copy of the Hamilton Standard Counterweight Propellers Service Manual No. 110D does list service inspection and maintenance schedules for 12D40 propellers, along with instructions and tools list. These are apparently based on the old Army-Navy maintenance schedules. (My .pdf copy is dated March 19, 1945 - last reprinted September 1982) Others here have a better understanding of FAA and other countries requirements, but this might be a general guideline to start from. ![]() |

Good spot Mustanger55. Totally relevant, thankyou. I have been dealing with approved maintenance schemes which have adopted the other reqiurements , ususally relevant only if none was published by manufacturer. Sonmething for me to follow up on. |
