Apollo Stainless Steel Propellers
The ApolloTM series propeller from Michigan Wheel is a high performance propeller made of 15-5 stainless steel alloy that is very durable and repairable. Some of the Apollo performance advantages are:
-
it's cupped trailing edge that extends past the blade tip to better grab and hold water, dramatically enhancing performance and efficiency.
-
it's thick tapered trailing edge provides durability, and makes the blade easy to repair after heavy impact.
-
it's one piece cast construction of premium 15-5 stainless steel alloy which provides superior strength under conditions where welded blades typically fail.
-
it's buffed mirror finish minimizes speed loss from propeller drag, reduces corrosion, and looks great doing it.
-
it's large blade area easily meets high horsepower demands, maximizing thrust and reducing performance draining phenomena like ventilation or cavitation.
-
it's optimal blade thickness which means each blade is carefully engineered thin enough to maximize speed, but thick enough to take punishment.
-
it's flared hub design keeps exhaust from causing speed robbing ventilation blow out.
-
it's vent hole plugs let you fine tune hole shot and acceleration performance to your unique application.
-
it's precision balanced blades significantly reduce vibration.
-
it's high performance blade geometry features high rake and progressive pitch design to provide the optimum hole shot , bow lift and top speed.
-
it's sharply thinned leading edges maximize acceleration and reduce speed robbing drag.
