Solas Amita 3, 3-Blade Aluminum Prop #2011-085-09
Michigan Wheel Michigan Match 012032 Aluminum Boat Propeller
Quicksilver Black Diamond #QA3190R Aluminum Boat Propeller
or OEM
All are 8.5" Diameter, 9" Pitch
--------------------------------------
Solas Says,Reliability and Precision
SOLAS uses a state of the art squeeze casting process to make our aluminum propellers stronger and tougher than traditional die cast products.
As shown below, with 400x magnification of a propeller blade root cross-section, the squeeze cast propeller is almost non-porous, with finer grain size than the die cast propeller.
SOLAS aluminum propellers have 4 layers of paint. Using superior coatings and a high-tech painting process ensures excellent anti-corrosion performance.
SOLAS aluminum propellers are exposed to over 500 hours of testing in a salt water spray tank. This testing simulates more than 6 months of normal salt water use.
Traditional Rubber hub
Three blade aluminum propeller
Exclusive Solas squeeze casting process
Wide blade design specifically for 4-stroke engines
