Title: PROP SIZES
Post by: Geoff on November 04, 2014, 01:52:06 pm

Does anyone know for sure what the thread size is on a typical Rivabo propellor. I know its 4mm but the pitch of the thread is the question as I need to cut some threads on some prop shafts and there are multiple 4mm dies - fine thread(which it isn't) and 0.5 and 0.7
 
Thanks

The 'normal' thread for 4mm is 0.7 pitch. So absent any definitive info I'd get that first as it will be useful for other 4mm work even if it isn't right for this particular job.
