Hamilton standard propeller

[Stephenk96]

Hi. I came across this propeller at a garage sale. I would like some more information on it. I was told it was from a B17 bomber. Also wondering the value of it?

Hello,

Welcome to the site ...

According to the lists of the propellers and governors I have, the DWG 6359A-18 prop blade was used for :

A-26B, C powered by the engine R-2800-27, hub 23E50-473, 505, 573 with a prop of diameter 12ft 7in.
B-26B, C powered by the engine R-2800-71, 79, hub 23E50-473, 505.
B-25 series powered by the engine R-2600-9 or 13 or 29A, hub 23E50-333, 473, 505 with a prop of diameter 12ft 7in.

The B-17 and also B-24, C-47 used a blade of a similar DWG number ... 6353A-18 for a prop of 11ft 7 in diameter. But the DWG 6359A-18 is not listed for the bomber.
For getting the value of the item I would suggest checking on the Ebay site. Here on the forum we don't allow to trade.

Ok thank you for the information. The prop is 6ft long so it makes sense on the ones that have a 12ft 7 diameter.

You're welcome.

Also please check on the prop blade root. There is more information stamped usually.
