Propeller Pitch Identification

[grayclose31]

Hi All,

I have just bought a replacement propoff a well known web site.

I would like to know the pitch of the prop.

It is made by Radice and has the following stamped on the hub -

8 84 C.7 LH

It is 12' in diam and is obviously a left handed prop.

Any ideas on the pith or if not how would i find out.

Yours

Chris

C7 sounds like the classification used by Volvo Penta for their duoprops, of which btw Radice is OEM supplier.
But 12" diameter sounds small... (ermmm... 12' indeed sounds a tad big, it isn't the QM2, is it? )
What drive/boat is it supposed to fit?

Correction it is 13 inches in diam.

It is on a small 23 foot fishing boat that has been under propped for trolling.

I intend to put the boat back in the sea.

Hense the need to increase the pitch.

Why don't you try sending an email to Radice and ask them for the details? Their website is http://elicheradice.com/home/eng/

I believe they are Italian and i am from Wigan. Possable language barrier!!

They may be Italian but like most companies trading internationally their website is in English, as is the enquiry form on their contact page. I don't think that you will have any language problems.

Ok i will give them a try thanks for the link.

As an alternative try picking up the phone to these people http://www.sillette.co.uk/ I think that they are the largest suppliers of Radice props in the UK and I used them when I needed a new Radice prop for my own boat. They were very helpful.
