Articles Featuring Piranha
By Don Garrison Second in a series of propeller technology articles: July, 2003 Last month I addressed propeller performance as a function of diameter and pitch. This month, let’s take a look at both the physical and financial performance (and pitfalls) of the most common materials used to make propellers.The perfect prop is made of a material I call “unobtainium” and it has all the ideal properties any good boater coul...
The four-bladed Comprop's low price and excellent performance make it a worthy contender, but the Piranha three-blade allows you to change blades and pitch. When it comes to performance, composite propellers can certainly hold their own when pitted against their stainless-steel and aluminum counterparts, we learned this lesson well in our last propeller comparison (July 2000). For example, the two plastic props tested (a three- and a four-blade fr...

How do our boat propellers work?

Our propellers feature a functional, modular design - which allows you to change damaged blades individually, as you need.
The key to the patented Piranha Propeller is the hub. The center hub consists of a high-strength aluminum core, molded over with our specially-formulated composite material, Verton.
The hub is designed to take the shock of the propeller's impact, which means you no longer experience spun hubs. We are confident in our virtually indestructible hubs, which is why we back them with a lifetime warranty. Our replaceable blades are made from the same high-strength composite, perfectly balanced, and precisely pitched - giving you a blade 15% stronger than die-cast aluminum.
We recognize the high cost of replacing and repairing your lower unit, which is why Piranha engineers designed the hub, blades, and materials to absorb impact energy - protecting your prop shaft and gears.
