How Does Turning Point Design Industry Leading Performance Props?
When Turning Point designs a new prop for a given category, they identify the best performing OEM and Aftermarket stainless steel props in the market that fits into that category. A better aluminum & stainless steel version is designed at the same time using the same geometry & drawing. Through testing, Turning Point’s engineers modify the design until it performs better than the best competitive Stainless Steel prop.
Turning Point Hustler aluminum props function just like Express stainless steel designs and run within 0.5MPH to 1MPH of each other most of the time. There are many reasons for this:
- Hustler props are produced from the same stainless steel geometry & drawing.
- Hustler is cast using the latest state-of-the-art squeeze casting technologies.
The competition does NOT use stainless steel blade geometry with no-blade-flex squeeze cast technology in their aluminum propellers. Competitive Die-Cast aluminum propellers significantly under perform when compared to stainless steel designs seen in the market.
Turning Point has built their reputation on a relentless focus on engineering the best performing aluminum propellers in the World. Utilizing state-of-the-art Squeeze Casting technology, they produce Hustler 3 Blade Propellers that run as fast as their competitors' Stainless Steel Props, and even sometimes faster! Super stiff metallurgy, unique blade geometry, aggressive pitch, rake, and cup all give you the best they can offer: Stainless Performance at Aluminum Prices! Not only does top speed, handling and hole shot improve, but also mid-range performance, which will save you a ton in gas usage. If you want the most your boat and engine combination can offer, then the Hustler 3 Blade delivers.
The Three Blade Hustler is great for boaters looking to get the most top end out of their boat, and offer excellent bow lifting capabilities. These props are perfectly matched to mid-range horsepower pontoons, fishing, ribs, and tiller boats. It will fit all 6-75hp outboards with 2.5", 3", and 3.5" gearcases from all engine manufacturers.
Squeeze Cast for Added Strength:
Stainless steel performance is built into the Hustler Aluminum prop line. This is achieved through unique blade geometry and an exclusive Turning Point manufacturing process, Squeeze Casting. This process generates the highest mechanical properties attainable in a cast aluminum prop resulting from high density tighter grain structure. Stiffer blades means less flex and a faster prop. Competitors' Aluminum propellers are manufactured utilizing old Die-Cast process that produces props with air bubble, voids, and granularity. Weak, lack of strength and stiffness. Difficult to repair. Blades Flex under load, inefficient, loss of propulsive efficiency.
Long Lasting Ultracoat™ Powder Coated Finish:
Exclusive to Turning Point, the Ultracoat powder coat rivals a fine automotive finish, and is more durable than paint. Utilizing a state-of-the-art five step process, Ultracoat gives the propeller a shiny, uniform appearance that enhances any boat's good looks. This is the Gold Standard in Aluminum Corrosion Protection. Prop looks Newer Longer! Compared to Competitors' 4 step Paint and Coating Processes that result in much less abrasion and corrosion resistance.
Large Free Flowing Exhaust Ports:
Turning Point's Propeller Housings have massive Exhaust flow pathways. Their Propellers have 40% more exhaust flow Area versus competive product. More exhaust flow and less backpressure can generate more horsepower. Like headers for your boat.
