 NOTE 4: Feathering The -1 and -7 models do not feather.  The -2 models incorporate feathering and unfeathering 
features. 
      Reversing Not applicable 
    
 NOTE 5: Left-Hand Models 
     The left-hand version of an approved propeller model is approved at the same rating and diameter as listed for the 
right-hand model.  (See NOTES 1 and 2) 
   
 NOTE 6: Interchangeability  
     (a) Blades 
        (1) Only blades listed in the same group of the following listed groups are sufficiently similar aero-
dynamically and vibrationwise to permit interchangeability in the same diameter without a flight test. 
Group (A): 9349, 9350 
       (2) Blades with the suffix “N” in the basic model number may replace those without an “N” either 
individually or as a set.  When the aircraft Type Certificate or Supplemental Type Certificate specifies 
blades with the letter “N” in the basic model number, the “N” character must be retained in all 
replacement blade models. 
        For example: Blades without the “N” suffix may be replaced by “N” suffix blades. 
Blades with the “N” suffix may only be replaced by “N” suffix blades 
        (3) Shot-peened blades may replace non shot-peened blades either individually or as a set (See NOTE 2) 
      (b) Propellers 
        (1) Propeller models listed in this data sheet may replace, but not be replaced by, corresponding propeller 
models listed in Type Certificate Data Sheet no. P-891.  Propeller models listed in this data sheet are 
interchangeable with corresponding propeller models listed in Type Certificate Data Sheet no. P2EA.  
Refer to the following tables (read across same row): 
    Prop models on TCDS P-891 may be replaced by Corresponding models on TCDS P-907 
    HC-93Z20-1  HC-B3Z20-1 
    HC-93Z20-2  HC-B3Z20-2 
    HC-93Z30-2  HC-B3Z30-2 
    HC-93ZF-2  HC-B3ZF-2 
       
    Prop models on TCDS P-907 are interchangeable with Corresponding models on TCDS P2EA 
    HC-B3Z20-1  HC-B3W20-1 
    HC-B3Z20-2  HC-B3W20-2 
    HC-B3Z30-2  HC-B3W30-2 
    HC-B3ZF-2  HC-B3WF-2 
      (c) Governors  (See NOTE 3) 
        (1) Hartzell governors with a “Z” suffix in their model designation may be used interchangeably with 
corresponding governors without the “Z”.  For example, the F-6-24Z is a replacement for the F-6-24 
and the F-6-24 is a replacement for the F-6-24Z. 
        (2) The Hartzell B-0 is the only model which is interchangeable with the Hamilton Standard 1M12 or 
1Q12.  Other Hartzell models are not interchangeable with any Hamilton Standard model without 
modification of the latter. 
       (d) Ice Protection Systems 
    Refer to Hartzell service Letter HC-SL-30-260 for ice protection system component interchangeability

Page 5 of 6 P-907 
  Revision 19 
 
 NOTE 7: Accessories (See NOTE 10) 
     (a) Propeller ice protection system (weight of ice protection system extra) 
       (1) Propeller models listed in this data sheet are approved for use with propeller ice protection equipment 
listed in Hartzell Manual 159 or in other Hartzell type design data. 
        (2) All propeller ice protection equipment must be approved as part of the aircraft installation regardless 
of manufacturer.  (See NOTE 10) 
      (b) Propeller spinner (weight of spinner extra) 
      (1) Approved with Hartzell and other manufacturers’ spinners when listed on Hartzell type design data. 
        (2) All propeller spinners must be approved as part of the aircraft installation regardless of manufacturer. 
(see NOTE 10) 
    
 NOTE 8: Shank Fairings Not applicable. 
    
 NOTE 9:   Special Limits  
   Table of Propeller - Engine Combinations 
Approved Vibrationwise for Use on Normal Category Single Engine Tractor Aircraft 
   The maximum and minimum propeller diameters that can be used from a vibration standpoint are shown below.  No reduction 
below the minimum diameter listed is permissible, since this figure includes the diameter reduction allowable for repair 
purposes. 
   The engine models listed below are the configurations on the engine type certificate unless specifically stated otherwise.  
Modifications to the engine or airframe that alter the power of the engine models listed below during any phase of operation 
have the p otential to increase propeller stresses and are not approved by this list.   Such modifications include, but are not 
limited to, the addition of a turbocharger or turbonormalizer, increased boost pressure, increased compression ratio, increas ed 
RPM, altered ignition timing, electronic ignition, full authority digital engine controls (FADEC), or tuned induction or exhaust.  
Also, any change to the mass or stiffness of the crankshaft/counterweight assembly is not approved by this list.

 NOTE 10: Propeller installation must be approved as part of the aircraft Type Certificate and demonstrate compliance with 
the applicable aircraft airworthiness requirements. 
     Propeller models listed herein consist of basic hub and blade models.  Most propeller models include additional 
characters to denote minor changes and specific features as explained in NOTES 1 and 2.  Refer to the aircraft 
Type Certificate Data Sheet for the specific propeller model applicable to the installation. 
  
 NOTE 11: Special Limits 
      (a) Life Limits and Mandatory Inspections 
      (1) Airworthiness limitations, if any, are stated in Hartzell Manuals 108( ), 114( ) or Service Letter 61( ). 
       The propeller CMACO must evaluate the propeller installation for each new aircraft installation to 
assess possible changes in the airworthiness limitations. 
   
 NOTE 12: Special Notes 
     (a) Refer to Hartzell Manual no. 202( ) for overspeed and overtorque limits.
