APC Props
AP-08040
This is the APC 8x4 Sport Propeller, a high-performance propeller designed for exceptional results. APC propellers are meticulously crafted using a pultrusion process, allowing for a higher fiber (60%) to resin (nylon binder) density. This advanced manufacturing technique provides substantially higher strength and stiffness compared to glass-filled nylon propellers. The additional stiffness effectively controls vibration resonance response, while the increased strength enables the use of thinner cross-sections, resulting in improved weight reduction and enhanced aerodynamic efficiency.
Key Features:
• Computer-optimized design ensures a thinner profile, delivering superior performance with reduced noise and enhanced biting capability.
• Lightweight molded nylon construction reduces rotating mass, resulting in higher output and an extended lifespan.
• Reinforcing fibers maintain a true and constant pitch at any RPM, ensuring reliable and consistent performance.
