2-Blade Brass Ship Propellers

2-blade brass ship’s propellers for model ships

2-blade brass ship’s propellers combine a high-quality, true-to-life appearance with a robust design and are suitable for numerous RC and scale model ships. Brass propellers are a popular choice, particularly for classic motor yachts, sailing boats with auxiliary propulsion, historic ships and other true-to-life models.

In our range, you will find 2-blade brass propellers with diameters ranging from 20 to 60 mm, as well as various thread sizes from M2 to M5. Many sizes are available in both left-hand and right-hand rotation.

A-type and C-type brass propellers

The range includes various propeller shapes:

• A-type propellers in numerous sizes
• C-type propellers for selected diameters
• left- and right-hand rotation versions
• thread sizes M2, M3, M4 and M5
• diameters from 20 to 60 mm

This allows you to select the propeller to suit the model size, shaft arrangement and propulsion system.

Left- or right-hand rotation propeller?

The direction of rotation of the propeller must match the intended configuration in the model. Models with two drive shafts often use one left-hand and one right-hand propeller. Counter-rotating propellers can help to balance out the torques generated by the propellers.

For a single-motor model, the direction of rotation should be chosen to suit the existing shaft system and the intended motor operation.

Selecting the correct diameter and thread

When selecting a model ship propeller, the following points are particularly important:

• Propeller diameter
• Counter-rotation or clockwise rotation
• Thread size of the ship’s shaft
• Motor power and speed
• Size and weight of the model
• Desired handling characteristics

The diameter should always be compatible with the motor and the shaft system. A propeller that is too large can place unnecessary strain on the motor and speed controller.

Brass propellers for true-to-scale model ships

As well as being functional, brass offers a high-quality appearance that suits scale model ships and historical prototypes particularly well. This makes the 2-blade propellers an attractive option for both seaworthy RC models and detailed model-making projects.
