NOTE 1. Hub Model Designation
The model designation of Curtiss hubs consists of a letter or a letter and a number suffixed to the
basic model designation, for example:
Basic Model Designation
Suffix
Special Assembly No. 2
General Design Series "A"
"S" for steel blades
No. 2 blade shank size
3-blade propeller
Fits SAE No. 60 splined shaft
Curtiss (manufacturer)
2AC 6 3 2 S -
A change in the suffix letter indicates a design series change which may affect eligibility.  Only those
hubs listed are eligible.  A change in the suffix number indicates a minor change which does not affect
hub eligibility.
NOTE 2. Blade Model Designation
For hollow steel blades the model designation consists of a series of numbers and letters suffixed to
the basic model number.  For example:
Basic Model Designation
Suffix
This number indicates reduction in inches from basic
design diameter (as -30, diameter reduced 30").
Curtiss blade shank size
Interchangeability designation. Number 1 appears on the
basic design. Numbers 2, 3, etc., indicate minor changes
affecting interchangeability.
Basic model number.
852 4 C2 0- -
A change in the Interchangeability Designation indicates a minor change.  A blade model is eligible
on an aircraft model when listed in the pertinent aircraft specification.*   Blades of the same model with
different suffixes are equally eligible as listed in NOTE 6, but only blades with a like suffix should
be assembled in the same hub.  *(Type Certificate Data Sheet)
NOTE 3. Pitch Control.  Eligible only with Curtiss manual control, constant speed governor, or automatic
synchronizer.
NOTE 4. (1) Feathering.   Eligible with full feathering control and voltage booster installed in accordance
with the propeller manufacturer's instructions.
(2) Reversing.  Eligible with reversing control and voltage booster installed in accordance with the
propeller manufacturer's instructions.
NOTE 5. Left-Hand Models.  The left-hand version of an approved model propeller is eligible at the same rating
and diameter limitations as listed for the right-hand model.

Page 3 P-847
NOTE 6. Interchangeable Blades.   Only blades listed in the same group of the following listed groups are
sufficiently similar aerodynamically and vibrationwise to permit interchangeability in the same diameter
without a flight test.  Blades with different model numbers, however, should not be incorporated in
the same propeller, and reference should always be made to the ratings of the blades.
Group (a)  852-1C2-X, 852-2C2-X, 852-3C2-x
(b)  744-4C2-X, 744-6C2-X, 744-10C2-X
(c)  740-6C2-X, 740-9C2-X
NOTE 7. Accessories.  Not applicable.
NOTE 8. Shank Fairings.  Curtiss steel blades are considered suitable for installation of blade shank cuffs.
Specific part numbers and weights of eligible cuffs will be shown on the pertinent aircraft
specifications.*  When blade shanks cuffs are installed, the propeller weight will be increased
approximately 15 lbs.  *(Type Certificate Data Sheet).
NOTE 9. Special Limits.   Actual basic propeller diameter varies with certain blades as shown below.
    Blade
Actual Basic
Propeller Diameter
852-1C2-0 15'    1.2"
852-2C2-0 14'  11.5"
952-3C2-0 14'  11.5"
NOTE 10. Special Notes.  The word "eligible" as used herein does not signify approval.  For approval,
compliance with the applicable aircraft airworthiness requirements is necessary.
