Used SST Props

[mrsmith35sg]

Would you buy a used SST prop that appeared in good shape? Whats the value of a used prop?

Im Looking around 14" 21 p SST LH and seen some pretty cheap prices for props that look great cosmetically, i just want to know if theres anything i should know.Thanks!

Re: Used SST Props

I never managed to damage one of my SST props and would have no problem buying a used one that didn't look like it was damaged or repaired. Value is in the supply and demand, LH props don't have as big as demand, but the supply is also a lot smaller.

Re: Used SST Props

I see used SST props from $100 to $250 all the time, obviously depending on the size and the performance features of the prop...

I was runnign a SST prop on my 115 and hits some rocks over the winter...(2 seperate incidents) rolled the outer 1/8th of the prop edge int he middle of two blades.....

totally bent my prop shaft!!!!!!!!! and twisted the splines almost one tooth radially!!!

id love to know when the hub was supposed to give way and save me some damage????

cant imagine what a SS prop would look like that had a spun hub!!!!!

unless ww are talkign 300 HP in an INSTANT!!!! maybe it could spin it..

so id think that if the edges are good, the prop is probably good
