Composite propellers aren't new. They've been around for years and have provided satisfactory service when used in small outboards, electric trolling motors and as emergency limp-home props for larger engines. Ten years ago, their primary advantage was, an in many cases still is low cost. The props' disadvantages were horsepower and performance limitations. In those early forms, composite props simply couldn't compare (in terms of performance) with a good aluminum prop, and they were light-years...

Experienced boaters rely on Piranha
for drivetrain protection, great performance, and quick, low-cost
propeller repair.
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.
