Propellers

Correct propeller selection, installation and maintenance is extremely important for Jabiru engines. Because of this, we recommend only using propellers approved by Jabiru Aircraft Australia. A list of approved propeller types is given below:

1. Jabiru wooden propellers

2. Other makes of fixed-pitch wooden propellers.

Note: Installations which provide some allowance for the expansion and contraction of the propeller wood (such as stacks of spring washers) are strongly recommended. In addition, all wooden propellers require regular maintenance to maintain the installation in safe condition.

Jabiru use an Australian Hoop pine laminate, three laminates for the 4 Cyl engines & four laminates for the 6 Cyl engines. The blank is then carved out and hand sanded to the appropriate pitch that is required.

With a layer of fiberglass on each side of the propeller which stops any flexing & gives strength to the timber.

A Flexane leading edge which is a hard rubber, is moulded into the leading edge and is a great stone and rain protector.

The list below is the standard tractor propellers that Jabiru manufacture.
