All “X” Series propellers are designed to efficiently use the higher engine power boating production by modern boat engines, both gas and diesel. With higher blade areas, the “X”propellers can better convert extra power into additional thrust. The increased blade area and refined blade chord distributions help minimize vibration for common high horsepower, limited tip-clearance applications. All “X” Series propellers are manufactured utilizing modern CNC machine finishing technology. This results in high quality propellers meeting stringent tolerance requirements at competitive prices.
Michigan Wheel offers a 4-blade DQX, which will result in smoother operation when compared to a 3-blade DJX. As boat size increases, larger engines will require the DQX to maximize thrust potential. Michigan Wheel also offers a 4-blade DQX with extra blade area (0.81 E.A.R.). This propeller can excel on performance applications where the propulsion system must accommodate various combinations of high engine power, propeller diameter constraints, and high boat speed.
