W74EM SERIES WOOD PROPELLERS FOR 150 MPH/160 HP AIRCRAFT
For aircraft which cruise in the 120 - 150 mph region and use a Lycoming O-290 or O-320 series engine, Sensenich recommends the W74EM-( ) series propeller. This propeller was designed specifically for 150 mph aircraft, with tailored airfoils and pitch distribution for maximum efficiency. Laminated construction is used, with 6 laminations providing the proper combination of strength and material stability for tractor aircraft. All Sensenich propellers are manufactured under strict production certificate standards, with material certification and a 48 point conformity inspection for each experimental category propeller.
Propeller pitch is selected as appropriate to aircraft type, engine rating, and climb/cruise preference. A Uralite leading edge is cast in place on the blade, which provides superior protection without any aerodynamic penalties.
Clear polyurethane finish is standard, with a gloss gray option.
The adapter assembly includes: crush plate, propeller mounting bolts, adapter mounting bolts, and adapter with customer specified extension length. The 1.25" length adapter is a "solid" type, while adapter lengths 3" and longer are of the "spool" type. Custom adapter lengths are available.

| Propeller Recommendation (dia. x pitch): |
NOTE: The standard pitches below will result in full throttle / level flight RPM’s approx. 2700-2750 at sea level. To reduce FTLF RPM’s by 100, increase pitch by 2 inches. |

• Aerobatics: subtract two inches of pitch (i.e. use climb pitch).
• Field elevations above 4,000 feet, subtract two inches of pitch.
• Diameter and pitch changes are interchangeable for equivalent RPM’s: i.e. add 2" of diameter, then reduce pitch by 2" and vice versa.
