Description
WHY CHOOSE KIWIPROPS?
WEIGHT
2 to 3 times lighter than a propeller than a bronze propeller of the same category!
LIMITATION OF VIBRATION
The total rotating mass is reduced and placed closer to the axis of rotation.
EXCEPTIONAL POWER IN REVERSE
Thanks to its fixed rear pitch of 23 degrees which provides excellent maneuverability from inversion.
CORROSION
Total elimination of corrosion problems and electrolysis phenomena thanks to its 316 stainless steel hub and its composite blades (Zitel Dupont).
MAINTENANCE
Excellent adhesion to antifouling paints allowing the propeller to be kept always clean, thus offering maximum performance throughout the year. Maintenance reduced to one greasing per year via 5 external holes. No anode to replace.
SIMPLE INSTALLATION
A central nut and two security screws. External pitch adjustment with an Allen key.
OPTIMIZED FEATHERING
The blades line up in the actual flow of the water and not in the direction of the propeller shaft as is the case with most feathering propellers. The feathering is automatic as soon as the engine stops at 100% and without any stopping procedure to follow.
REDUCED WEAR
The wear of the hydrolube ring is reduced thanks to the reduced weight of the propeller. No anode to replace.
SIMPLITY
The alignment of the life of the Sail Drive and the inverters are guaranteed by the low inertia of the Kiwiprop.
RELIABILITY
Easy and low-cost blade replacement in the event of propeller failure.
Pitch forward: 18 - 24° / Pitch reverse: 24° - fixed.
