Prop Destruction

[Martin Law]

Stainless any better in relation to blade failures? Heat treating like some do of an ABC prop have any affect regarding blade failures?

When I posted this thread it was not my intention to disrespect any of the prop manufacturers or the prop guys that all supply invaluable services to our sport. If anyone took offense please accept my deepest apologies.

My goal here was to gain some knowledge and communicate amongst the other forum members their experiences and expertise when this situation occurs since I have personally never had this happen before. Anything can happen when we push these machines to their mechanical limits and beyond. Every time we start one up and send it off some degree of failure under these circumstances is imminent.

Safety should be the number one concern and this is a real possibility that we often take for granted...
