VOLUME 4
4. Safe Handling of Paints and Chemicals
A. Always use caution when handling or being exposed to paints and/or chemicals
during propeller overhaul and maintenance procedures.
B. Before using paint or chemicals, always read the manufacturer’s label on the
container and follow specified instructions and procedures for storage, preparation,
mixing, and application.
C. Refer to the product’s Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for detailed information
about physical properties, health, and physical hazards of any chemical.
5. Component Life
WARNING: Certain propeller components used in non-aviation applications are

marked with different part numbers to distinguish them from components
used in aviation applications. Do not alter the part numbers shown on
parts designated for non-aviation applications or otherwise apply those
parts for use on aviation applications.
A. Component Life
(1) Certain components, or in some cases an entire propeller, may be life limited.
(a) It is a regulatory requirement that a record of the total time in service be
maintained for all life limited parts.
(2) Component life is expressed in terms of hours of service (Time Since New, TSN)
and in terms of hours of service since overhaul (Time Since Overhaul, TSO).
NOTE: TSN/TSO is considered as the time accumulated between rotation
and landing (i.e. flight time).
(3) Both TSN/TSO are necessary in defining the life of the component. Some parts
are "life limited," which means that they must be replaced after a specified
period of use (TSN).
(4) When a component or assembly undergoes an overhaul, the TSO is returned to
zero hours.
(a) Time Since New (TSN) can never be returned to zero.
(b) Repair without overhaul does not affect TSO or TSN.
(5) Time Since New (TSN) and Time since Overhaul (TSO) records must be
maintained in the propeller logbook.
61-01-02
Vol. 4, Page 7
VOLUME 4
(6) Blades and hubs are sometimes replaced while in service or at overhaul.
(a) Maintaining separate TSN and TSO histories for a replacement hub or
blade is required.
(b) Other propeller components do not require time tracking unless
specified in Hartzell Propeller Inc. service publications or by regulatory
requirements.
(c) Hub replacement
1 If the hub is replaced, the replacement hub serial number must be
recorded (the entry signed and dated) in the propeller logbook.
2 The propeller will be identified by the serial number of the
replacement hub.
NOTE: Propeller assembly serial numbers are impression stamped
on the hub. For stamping information, refer to the Parts
Identification and Marking chapter of Hartzell Propeller Inc.
Standard Practices Manual 202A (61-01-02).
3 The TSO and TSN of the replacement hub must be recorded and
maintained in the propeller logbook.
4 The TSN and TSO of the remaining propeller components that are
required to be tracked as defined above, are not affected by the hub
replacement and must be maintained separately.
6. Propeller Critical Parts
A. Propeller Critical Parts

(1) Procedures in this manual may involve Propeller Critical Parts (PCP).
(a) These procedures have been substantiated based on Engineering
analysis that expects this product will be operated and maintained using
the procedures and inspections provided in the Instructions for Continued
Airworthiness (ICA) for this product.
(b) Refer to the Illustrated Parts List chapter of the applicable propeller
Overhaul manual for the identification of specific Propeller Critical Parts.
(2) Numerous propeller system parts can produce an aircraft Major or Hazardous
effect, even though those parts may not be considered as Propeller Critical
Parts.
(a) The operating and maintenance procedures and inspections
provided in the ICA for this product are, therefore, expected to be
accomplished for all propeller system parts.

2. Cleaning
CAUTION: INSTRUCTIONS AND PROCEDURES IN THIS SECTION INVOLVE

CRITICAL PARTS.
Refer to the Cleaning chapter of Hartzell Propeller Inc. Standard Practices Manual 202A
(61-01-02), Volume 1, for steel hub cleaning procedures.
A. After cleaning and before inspection (assuming the pilot tubes do not require
removal), it is desirable to polish the pilot tube OD by hand (240 grit or finer polishing
compound) to remove minor imperfections.
B. If pilot tubes require removal, additional cleaning of hub pilot tube bores is required
after pilot tube removal.
C. If pilot tubes do not require removal, perform as thorough cleaning as possible (use
"bottle scrubber" or similar brush) on the inside of the hub pilot bores because a
corrosion preventative will be added later, before completion of overhaul.
D. Apply an interim corrosion preventative lubricant CM108 only if the time between
cleaning to the time for inspection and rework is greater than eight hours.
3. Disassembly
NOTE: This manual assumes that the propeller has been disassembled per
applicable overhaul manual and addresses only the hub unit.
A. Removal of Slimserts®

MANUAL(S) FOR THE IDENTIFICATION OF SPECIFIC
PROPELLER CRITICAL PARTS.
(1) Remove all Slimserts® previously installed in mounting bolt holes. Use a
common "screw extractor" for Slimsert® removal.

B. Removal of A-155, A-218 or A-1817 Bushings
CAUTION 1: INSTRUCTIONS AND PROCEDURES IN THIS SECTION INVOLVE

CAUTION 2: GRAPHITE ("LEAD") PENCIL MARKS WILL CAUSE CORROSION.

USE NON-GRAPHITE PENCIL CM162 OR EQUIVALENT FOR
MARKING.
CAUTION 3: DO NOT STAMP THE HUB IN THE RADIUS NEXT TO THE

BUSHING.
(1) Remove the bushing if the splined-shaft hub is to be cadmium plated. The
bushing may be removed using a soft drift.
(2) Round bottom stamp the hub with a period “.” next to the bushing, then mark
the bushing with paint (or other marking method that will not damage the
bushing).
(3) This reference mark of the bushing to the hub assures the same orientation and
proper centering of the hub on the engine shaft at reinstallation. Refer to the
Acceptance and Rework Limits table for inspection criteria.
C. Removal of Hub Tab Bushings

(1) Remove and discard the two hub tab bushings, if the splined-shaft hub is to be
cadmium plated. Using care not to damage the hub tabs, drill out the bushings.

Vol. 4, Page 1-11
VOLUME 4
D. Removal of A-249 Propeller Shaft Sleeve

(1) Remove and discard the propeller shaft sleeve.
E. Removal of F-Flange and W-Flange Studs

(1) General
(a) Occasionally a stud from the F- or W-flange of a steel hub propeller is
damaged during assembly, disassembly, or operation. These studs
are difficult to remove and must be properly replaced to ensure engine/
propeller integrity.
(b) Studs and other mounting hardware must be replaced at overhaul.
(2) Procedure
CAUTION: DO NOT SCRATCH OR OTHERWISE DAMAGE THE HUB

WHEN SECURING THE HUB OR WHEN USING THE STUD
REMOVAL TOOL OR REAMER. ANY DAMAGE MAY CAUSE
THE HUB TO BE RETIRED.
NOTE: If the stud length permits, place a washer between the hub flange
and the stud removal tool to prevent the tool from damaging the hub
flange.
(a) Use a stud removal tool and apply up to 100 Ft-Lb (135.6 N•m) of torque
to the stud.
NOTE 1: Secure the hub before using the stud removal tool.
NOTE 2: Grinding a flat spot on the stud will allow the stud removal tool
to better grip the stud. Discard this modified stud after removal.
61-01-02
Vol. 4, Page 1-12
VOLUME 4
(b) A stud that cannot be removed with the stud removal tool requires the
following additional steps.
1 Soak a cloth or sponge in epoxy dissolver CM102 and apply it to the
threads of the stud.
2 Let the dissolver work for 1 to 2 hours and then attempt to remove
the stud with the stud removal tool.
WARNING: DO NOT EXPOSE THE EPOXY DISSOLVER CM102 TO

AN OPEN FLAME. THE EPOXY DISSOLVER CM102 IS
EXTREMELY FLAMMABLE.
CAUTION 1: DO NOT APPLY DIRECT HEAT TO THE HUB.
CAUTION 2: THE TEMPERATURE OF THE STUD IN THE THREADED

AREA MUST NOT EXCEED 450° F (232.2° C).
3 Heat the exposed portion of the stud to 450° F (232.2° C) maximum.
4 Remove the stud with the stud removal tool.
(c) Repeat steps 3.E.(2)(a) and 3.E.(2)(b) until all the studs have been
removed.
(d) Clean all epoxy residue from the threaded holes by tapping the hole with
the appropriate thread tap.
1 F-flange tap 1/2-20 UNF-3B
2 W-flange tap 9/16-18 UNF-3B
(e) Using a reamer TE403, remove all epoxy residue from the unthreaded
portion of the F-flange hole.
F. Removal of Pilot Tube Expansion Plugs

(1) All pilot tube expansion plugs must be replaced at overhaul.
(2) A hammer and chisel, or similar hand tool, are required for pilot tube expansion
plug removal.
(3) Puncture a hole into the expansion plug (the expansion plug is made of a
soft alloy that can be punctured easily). Use the punctured hole to pry the
expansion plug from the pilot tube.

G. Removal of Pilot Tube Cork Seals

(1) All cork seals must be removed during overhaul.
(2) Remove cork seals by cutting or breaking the cork into small pieces for removal
through the pilot tube.
H. Pilot Tube Removal

Pilot tube removal is required only if a part fails to meet inspection and rework
criteria or if specifically required by a Hartzell Propeller Inc. Publication
(Manual or Service Bulletin) or Airworthiness Directive. Refer to the section
Required Inspections/Dimensional Checks, in this chapter, to determine if pilot tube
removal is required.
The normal removal procedure requires clamping of the pilot tube while a highly
loaded rod, positioned through the pilot tube, contacts the inner hub pilot tube
bore to force the hub from the pilot tube. Pilot tubes are damaged during removal
and must be retired. This method creates a relatively high tensile load on the hub
arm. The following procedure supersedes all previous pilot tube removal
procedures.
(1) Pilot Tube Removal - Refer to Figure 1-2
The pilot tube removal procedure limits a maximum tensile force of 50,000
pounds (25 tons [222,400 N]) on the hub arm during pilot tube removal. If
the maximum removal force of 25 tons is unable to remove the pilot tube, refer
to paragraph 3.H.(2) Pilot Tube Break-Away.
NOTE: To adequately grip the pilot tube, localized arc welding of the
pilot tube is acceptable. Precautions (quality control procedures)
must be taken to prevent excessive heat or arcing damage to the
hub.

Vol. 4, Page 1-15
VOLUME 4
CAUTION: DO NOT EXCESSIVELY HEAT THE HUB TO

FACILITATE PILOT TUBE REMOVAL. PERMANENT DAMAGE
TO THE HUB FORGING MAY RESULT, RENDERING IT
UNAIRWORTHY.
(a) Place the fixture TE53 on the table of the hydraulic press bench.
(b) Install the hub in the fixture with the pilot tube facing upward.
(c) Clamp the toothed inserts of the fixture onto the pilot tube outer diameter.
(d) Place the rod TE107 into the hydraulic press ram.
CAUTION: DO NOT EXCEED MAXIMUM LOAD OF 25 TONS. ANY HUB

EXPOSED TO GREATER THAN 25 TONS TENSILE LOAD
MUST BE RETIRED.
NOTE: The hydraulic press must have a calibrated gauge so that the load
can be calculated to within + 1000 pounds.
(e) Hydraulically extend the rod TE107 into the pilot tube until it contacts the
base of the internal hub bore. Apply hydraulic pressure until the hub
pushes
away from the pilot tube.
NOTE: Heating or cooling of parts to facilitate removal is acceptable
within maximum temperature limits (Refer to the Special
Inspections chapter in this manual for temperature limits).
Use of a torch or similar uncontrolled method of applying heat
is NOT authorized because of possibly exceeding maximum
allowable temperatures in localized areas. Use of "dry ice" on
the pilot tube in conjunction with a moderately warm hub may
help facilitate removal; however, there is no established data to
indicate the amount of benefit obtained from such a procedure.
Also, note that heating or cooling of parts is authorized during
pilot tube removal, but NOT authorized during pilot tube
installation.
(f) If the pilot tube does not pull from the hub upon reaching the maximum
allowable pressure of 50,000 pounds (25 tons [222,400 N]), refer to Pilot
Tube Break-Away procedure and repeat removal procedure.
NOTE: If after applying the Pilot Tube Break-Away procedure and
repeating Pilot Tube Removal, the pilot tube does not pull from
the hub, return the hub/pilot tube to the Hartzell Propeller Inc.
Service Center for possible removal.
(g) Continue to extend the rod until the pilot tube is completely removed from
the hub.
(h) Release the hydraulic pressure and remove the hub from the fixture.

(2) Pilot Tube Break-Away - Refer to Figure 1-3

Some pilot tubes may require a force greater than 25 tons (50,000 pounds
[222,400 N]) to remove the pilot tube. In this situation, the Pilot Tube Break-
Away procedure below provides for an inward load of up to 100,000 pounds
(50 tons [444,800 N]) (compressive load) on the hub arm to "break-away" the
pilot tube, after which the normal removal process, Pilot Tube Removal, is
repeated. Once the break-away resistance is overcome, experience has shown
that a much lower tensile load is required for removal. Pilot Tube Break-Away is
optional, required only if the maximum removal force of 25 tons (50,000 pounds
[222,400 N]) is unable to remove the pilot tube.
(a) Place the fixture TE52 on the table of a 50 ton (100,000 pound
[444,800 N]) press.
(b) Install the hub unit in the fixture. Rotate the hub so that the pilot tube is
facing upward.
(c) Place the stop sleeve TE311 over the pilot tube until the stop sleeve
rests against the hub arm. The stop sleeve is designed to set the correct
distance the pilot tube will be allowed to be pushed into the hub arm
0.06 inch (1.5 mm).
NOTE: The stop sleeve TE311 is similar to the stop sleeve TE241 that
is used for pilot tube installation. The stop sleeve TE311 is
0.06 inch (1.5 mm) shorter than the installation stop sleeve
TE241 and is to be used only for the Pilot Tube Break-Away
method.
(d) Visually align the hub arm, pilot tube and cylinder.
CAUTION: DO NOT EXCEED MAXIMUM LOAD OF 50 TONS

(100,000 POUNDS [444,800 N]). ANY HUB EXPOSED TO
GREATER THAN 50 TONS (100,000 POUNDS [444,800 N])
COMPRESSIVE LOAD IS TO BE RETIRED.
(e) Slowly apply hydraulic pressure until the pilot tube breaks away from the
hub. There will be a distinct noise when the pilot tube breaks-away. Do not
exceed a maximum pressure of 50 tons (100,000 pounds [444,800 N]).
NOTE: If the pilot tube does not break away upon reaching the
maximum allowable pressure of 50 tons (100,000 pounds
[444,800 N]), contact Hartzell Propeller Inc. Product Support
Department for additional information.
(f) After the pilot tube breaks away, release the hydraulic pressure to retract
the cylinder. Repeat the Pilot Tube Removal procedure to remove the pilot
tube.

4. Required Inspections/Dimensional Checks
A. Hub Unit Inspection

NOTE: Refer to Table 1-8 for Acceptance Criteria and Rework Limits.
(1) Perform a visual inspection and dimensional check of the hub unit as specified
in Table 1-8. Identify any potential “stress risers” such as gouges, tool marks,
or corrosion within the cylindrical portion of the bore. Active corrosion must be
removed. Evaluate pitting as a result of corrosion, per Table 1-8.
(2) Anytime a pilot tube is removed, visual, dimensional, and magnetic particle
inspection of the hub pilot tube bore is required. Pay particular attention to the
area at the inboard end of the pilot tube.
(3) Each visual inspection and dimensional check of the hub has an acceptance
criteria that specifies a defined limit of defect that is considered serviceable.
The item does not require any rework if the defect falls within this category.
(4) Any hub defect that exceeds the limits specified in the acceptance criteria
may be reworked within the limits specified in Rework Limits, before return to
service. After a part has been reworked, a visual inspection and dimensional
check of the reworked area must be performed. The final reworked part cannot
exceed the acceptance criteria limits specified in Table 1-8.
(5) When a hub has been reworked to its maximum rework limits, and contains a
defect beyond the limits allowed in Table 1-8, the hub must be retired. Refer to
Parts Retirement Procedures in this manual.
(6) All steel hubs are required to be magnetic particle inspected at overhaul. Hub
surface abnormalities must be reworked before conducting a magnetic particle
inspection. A magnetic particle inspection must be conducted after any hub
surface rework.
(7) If a pilot tube is replaced during overhaul, two separate magnetic particle
inspections are required:
(a) Inspect the internal hub pilot tube bore after the pilot tube is removed.
(b) Inspect for possible cracks in the hub arm flange around the hub/pilot tube
joint after a new pilot tube is installed.

Vol. 4, Page 1-19
VOLUME 4
(8) Steel hubs are required to be reshot peened at overhaul if they meet the
following criteria:
(a) If any of the exterior shot peened surface of the hub has wear exceeding
the depth of the shot peen pebble grain, the hub must be reshot peened.
(b) If the exterior shot peened surfaces have damage or repairs exceeding
the depth of the shot peen pebble grain, reshot peening of the hub exterior
is required.
(9) All steel hubs are required to be re-plated at overhaul. Plating must be
performed in accordance with the Cadmium Replating section of this manual.
B. Magnetic Particle Inspection

(1) Perform inspection in accordance with the Magnetic Particle Inspection chapter,
in this manual.
(2) Perform a magnetic particle inspection of the entire hub and pilot tubes (if
installed) to detect defects that could not be detected visually.
(3) For steel hub inspection additional requirements are as follows:
(a) Use wet continuous method with ampere setting of 3000 to 5000 amps
with 1/2 to 1 second time delays.
(b) Magnetize the hub using circular magnetization ("head shot"). Rotate
the hub on a central conductor rod and perform magnetization at several
points (at least one "shot" per blade arm) to ensure full magnetization.
Perform an inspection of all areas of the hub.
(c) Magnetize the hub using longitudinal magnetization ("coil shot"). Perform
an inspection of all areas of the hub.
(d) Upon completion, thoroughly demagnetize all areas of the hub.

VOLUME 4
(4) Inspection Area

(a) Perform magnetic particle inspection on all hub external surfaces,
including flange surfaces (mounting and blade arm), engine shaft spline
(where applicable), hub center bore, and blade arm.
(b) If magnetic particle inspection is performed with the pilot tube installed,
inspect external surfaces of the hub arm and pilot tube. Inspection of the
internal pilot tube surfaces and internal hub pilot tube bore is not required.
(c) If magnetic particle inspection is performed with the pilot tube removed,
pay particular attention to the area 0.2 to 1.5 inches (5 to 38 mm) from the
bottom of the hub arm bore (the area near the end of the pilot tube, when
installed). Look for circumferential, linear crack indications, as short as
0.060 inch (1.52 mm) in length.
(5) Submit a report to Hartzell Propeller Inc. for any crack indications found during
magnetic particle inspection.
C. Special Inspections

(1) Refer to the Special Inspections chapter, in this manual for lightning strike,
ground/foreign object strike, fire/heat damage and overspeed inspection
requirements.
(2) All five blade hubs, (P/N 840-118 (HC-B5MP-( ) propellers with "P" mounting
flange) require inspection of the mounting flange.
NOTE: For Pratt & Whitney engine applications, use of a thin metallic shim
between the engine and propeller mounting flanges is recommended
by P & W when installing the propeller on the (P & W part number
3110998-01, usable on PT6A-45, -60, -65 series engines).

WARNING: ADHESIVES AND SOLVENTS ARE FLAMMABLE AND TOXIC

TO THE SKIN, EYES, AND RESPIRATORY TRACT. SKIN AND
EYE PROTECTION ARE REQUIRED. AVOID PROLONGED
CONTACT AND BREATHING OF VAPORS. USE SOLVENT
RESISTANT GLOVES TO MINIMIZE SKIN CONTACT AND
WEAR SAFETY GLASSES FOR EYE PROTECTION. USE
IN A WELL VENTILATED AREA AWAY FROM SPARKS AND
FLAME. READ AND OBSERVE ALL WARNING LABELS.
(a) Using a solvent, clean the flange surface as necessary and lightly polish
with 400 grit (or finer) sandpaper or steel wool.
NOTE: Brown stains, indicative of fretting corrosion, are an indication
of movement or "flexing" between the flange surfaces. If there
is any evidence of fretting, take extra care in cleaning and
evaluating the flange surfaces.
(b) After cleaning, visually inspect the flange surfaces for pitting or fretting
(see Figure 1-4). If propeller hub indications exceed 0.0015 inch (0.0381
mm) depth, flange rework is required per Paragraph 4.C.2.(f).
(c) Although fretting indications are easy to see, determination of the
maximum depth of fretting may be difficult to evaluate. If any fretting or
other surface degradation is observed, depth measurement is necessary.
Fretting is typically most severe near the inside diameter of the flange
and gradually diminishes toward the outside diameter (see Figure 1-4).
Measurement must be made as close as practical to the inside diameter of
the flange.
(d) Use a flatness gauge TE321 or equivalent, to inspect flanges. Hold the
flat portion of the tool on a smooth area of the flange to "zero" the dial
indicator. Hold the tool against a smooth (or outboard) area of the flange
while measuring suspect areas (see Figure 1-4).
NOTE: During investigation of recent bolt failures, several of the hubs
were noted to have a deformation (protrusion) around the hub
bolt holes and dowel pin holes. Such deformation is not allowed.
(e) Slide a metal "straight edge" over the hub flange surface to visually check
for any roughness or deformation (make two passes, 90 degrees from
each other). No cracks, deformation or protrusions are allowed. The flange
surface must be flat. If any deformation or protrusions around bolt holes
or dowel pin holes are observed, contact Hartzell Propeller Inc. Product
Support Department for assistance. Hub rework or replacement will be
required before return to service.

Vol. 4, Page 1-23
VOLUME 4
(f) Rework of Propeller Mounting Flange: If pits exceed 0.0015 inch

(0.0381 mm) depth on the mounting flange surface or surface deformation
(protrusions), the hub must be returned to the Hartzell Propeller Inc.
factory (or other Hartzell Propeller Inc. approved facility) for repair.
Factory rework will consist of flange resurfacing to remove pitting, and
shot peening to retard the further occurrence of pitting. Minimum allowable
flange thickness is 0.482 inch (12.24 mm).
5. Rework
A. General

(1) Any hub defect that exceeds the acceptance criteria limits specified in Table 1-8
must be reworked. The rework limits in Table 1-8, specify the maximum limits of
rework. After rework, if the part exceeds the acceptance criteria, the part must
be retired in accordance with the Part Retirement Procedures chapter,
Volume 6 of Hartzell Propeller Inc. Standard Practices Manual 202A (61-01-02).
(2) If overhaul records or a visual examination indicate that an area of the hub was
reworked to its maximum limit during a previous overhaul, additional rework
of that area during subsequent overhauls is not authorized. Contact Hartzell
Propeller Inc. Product Support for further information, as necessary.
(3) All parts that have been reworked must undergo magnetic particle inspection.
B. Rework of Surface Defects

(1) Using crocus cloth or fine emery cloth, remove all repairable nicks and galling
marks from the hub unit.
61-01-02
Vol. 4, Page 1-24
VOLUME 4
(2) Remove all corrosion, scratches, gouges, and pitting defects:

(a) Defects may be removed by grinding with a small hand-held grinder,
280-grit sanding drum, or equivalent.
(b) Localized glass bead cleaning is an acceptable substitute to repair very
light defects (0.002 inch [0.050 mm] depth or less).
(c) Use caution when removing defects from the hub surface, as the hub unit
has been shot peened to improve the fatigue strength. Shot peen marks
may appear as tooling marks and should not be removed.
(3) Polish (320-grit or finer) the area that has been reworked with a grinder.
(a) Polish out any grinding marks or blemishes.
(b) Glass bead cleaning is an acceptable substitute for polishing.
(4) After polishing, reinspect the area (magnetic particle inspection) for any
remaining defects. If the magnetic particle inspection reveals that additional
rework is necessary, rework then reinspect.
(5) Ensure the reworked area complies with the Acceptance Criteria before the hub
is returned to service.
C. Resurfacing of Mounting Flange Face

(1) Resurfacing the mounting flange face requires approval of special procedures.
Contact Hartzell Propeller Inc. Product Support for further information.
Refer to the Special Inspections section in this chapter for inspection/rework
requirements for HC-B5MP-( ) five-blade hubs.

Vol. 4, Page 1-25
VOLUME 4
D. Reboring of Hub Arm Pilot Tube Bore

(1) Using hand-held tools to rework pilot tube bores with large flaws will not
provide adequate removal of flaws or maintain a sufficiently uniform diameter
throughout the pilot tube bore. In such cases remachining of the pilot tube bore
is required.
(2) Contact Hartzell Propeller Inc. Product Support for further information on
reboring the pilot tube bore. Authorization for propeller shops to perform
reboring of pilot tube bores must be obtained in writing from Hartzell Propeller
Inc. after the propeller shop's procedure and samples have been evaluated and
accepted.
E. Compressive Rolling of Hub Arm Pilot Tube Bore

PROPELLER CRITICAL PARTS
(1) Compressive rolling has been implemented into the manufacturing process for
all steel hubs as of January 1994. Such hubs are identified by the addition of a
third letter "A" in the hub serial number prefix, example: CDA1234. (Note: some
old hubs may not have prefix letters and were not compression rolled.)
(2) At this time there is no requirement to perform compressive rolling of hubs that
were not originally rolled.
(3) Different inspection/rework criteria are applicable to hubs with rolled pilot tube
bores, Refer to Table 1-8.

VOLUME 4
F. Rework of Hub Arm Pilot Tube Bore When the Pilot Tube Has Been Pulled

PROPELLER CRITICAL PARTS
(1) Use 3M Scotch Brite® pad (or equivalent nonmetallic abrasive pad) attached to
the end of a hand-held air drill to remove light corrosion and foreign matter in
hub bores.
(2) Remove any gouges, tool marks that have sharp edges, or corrosion present
by using a hone or small flexible 80-grit (or finer) “cross patch” sanding disc
with hand-held air drill.
(3) If an 80-grit or other coarse grit is used, additional sanding with fine grit
(240-grit or finer) followed by 3M Scotch Brite® pad is necessary to blend
sanding marks.
(4) The finished result must be free of stress risers, particularly in the area
specified in Table 1-8. Any conditions within the reworked area that cannot be
removed by the above methods are cause for either reboring of the hub pilot
tube bore or hub retirement.
(5) Post Rework Inspections
(a) Hub Arm Pilot Tube Bore Measurements
1 Measure and record the inside diameter of each hub arm bore in the
area of pilot tube contact. Measure at the three locations specified in
Figure 1-5. Each of the three measurements must be within
0.002 inch (0.050 mm) of each other, otherwise additional rework
of the bore is required to establish reasonably uniform diameters
throughout the hole. Record measurements for later use in the
Selection of Pilot Tube section of this chapter.
2 If a three-point micrometer is used, one measurement at each
specified location is satisfactory. Three-point micrometers are
preferred.
3 If a two-point micrometer is used, take two diameter measurements,
90 degrees apart at each location.
(b) Conduct a magnetic particle inspection of pilot tube bores. If the magnetic
particle inspection reveals that additional rework is necessary, re-inspect
after rework is performed.

H. Stripping and Cadmium Replating

(1) Stripping with the Pilot Tube Installed
(a) The pilot tube must be carefully plugged and sealed to prevent stripping
materials from entering the hub pilot tube bore.
1 Stripping materials are defined as ammonium nitrate solution or
sodium cyanide solution.
2 Install a customer procured rubber plug in the end of each pilot tube.
3 Apply electrical tape at the rubber plug/pilot tube joint to secure the
plug and to seal the joint.
a Although electrical tape is identified as masking material for the
pilot tube, an equivalent masking material may be used.
4 Apply electrical tape or equivalent masking material to the air bleed
hole in the pilot tube, if applicable.

Vol. 4, Page 1-35
VOLUME 4
5 Apply electrical tape or equivalent masking material to seal the

hub/pilot tube joint.
a When masking the hub/pilot tube joint, it is preferable to
avoid stripping a small portion, Area A, of the hub arm to
prevent accumulation of stripping materials in this joint.
Refer to Figure 1-9.
6 Apply electrical tape or equivalent masking material to the remaining
exposed pilot tube.
(b) Strip the hub in accordance with the Cadmium Replating chapter of Hartzell
Propeller Inc. Standard Practices Manual 202A (61-01-02), Volume 10.
(c) Remove the electrical tape or equivalent masking material immediately after
the stripping process.
(d) Using deionized water, thoroughly clean and rinse the hub and pilot tube.
(e) Dry the pilot tube bores and hub/pilot tube joint areas.

small portion, Area A, of the hub arm to prevent accumulation
of plating materials in this joint. Refer to Figure 1-9.
b Plating must wrap around the outboard corner of Area A.
Refer to Figure 1-9.
7 Cover the remaining exposed pilot tube with electrical tape.
8 Replate in accordance with the Cadmium Replating chapter of this
manual.
(b) Immediately after the plating process, remove the electrical tape and
visually examine for contamination (wet) of internal pilot tube bores and
hub/pilot tube joint.
1 If there is contamination at either point, then pilot tube removal
for inspection and rework (removal of corrosion) is required
because such contamination could lead to formation of hub
corrosion or cracking.
(c) Thoroughly clean and rinse the hub/pilot tube joint area and pilot tube
bores.
(3) Replating with Pilot Tube Removed:
(a) Use a rubber cork to prevent plating of the hub pilot tube bores.
(b) Replate in accordance with the Cadmium Replating chapter of Hartzell
Propeller Inc. Standard Practices Manual 202A (61-01-02), Volume 10.
1 Although undesirable, if the hub pilot tube bore becomes
inadvertently plated, plating may be removed from the bore in
accordance with Rework of Hub Pilot Tube Bore, in this chapter.

L. "V" to "MV" Model Update

(1) In addition to the inspection/rework requirements stated in this section, all "V"
shank model propellers can be upgraded to "MV" shank model propellers.
(a) This upgrade consists of installing blades with the "MV" shank details,
replacing the C-3-( ) clamps with D-6831-( ) clamps, and replacing the
A-47-1 clamp gaskets with A-6871-1 clamp gaskets.
(b) All other parts remain the same.
(c) All parts are subject to overhaul requirements.
(2) Re-identify Hub
(a) Remove the entire existing propeller model number using a blunt metal
stamp to obliterate the numbers.
1 The TC numbers for the "MV" model propellers are the same as for
the "V" model propellers and therefore do not require modification.
(b) Using a stamp with round-bottom numbers, stamp the new model number
below the model number that was obliterated. The new model numbers
consist of the existing "V" propeller model number with the characters
"MV" replacing the "V".
NOTE: Example: HC-A3VK-2D becomes HC-A3MVK-2D.

4 Permit Mixture #4 to dry.
5 Remove the masking material.
(d) Inspect the hub unit for complete paint coverage over the painted
surfaces. Make sure that there is no paint in the areas that were covered
by the masking material and that those areas are free from tape residue.
(e) Permit paint to dry for a minimum of eight (8) hours before assembly.
6. Reassembly
NOTE 1: Older design propellers use pilot tubes that are sealed with cork. Later
propeller designs are sealed with a metal expansion plug located in a groove
in the outboard end of the pilot tube.
For propellers with a cork seal, if a pilot tube is removed during overhaul, it
is preferable to install a cork seal on the inboard end of the pilot tube before
pilot tube installation. If pilot tubes are not removed or if not all tubes are
removed during overhaul, the cork seal must be installed on the outboard end
of the pilot tube. All hubs that use a cork seal, must have all the cork seals in
the same location; otherwise, an imbalance may occur.
NOTE 2: During overhaul of all hubs, regardless of whether a pilot tube is removed,
application of rust preventative coating CM75 to the inside of the hub pilot
tube bores is required before sealing of the pilot tube.
A. Pilot Tube Installation - Refer to Figure 1-10

(1) Selection of Pilot Tube
(a) Care must be taken to select a replacement pilot tube with the correct
outside diameter in the area where the tube is pressed into the hub arm.

61-01-02
Vol. 4, Page 1-48
VOLUME 4
(b) Select a pilot tube with a diameter that is 0.0023 - 0.0042 inches
(0.0584 - 0.106 mm) greater than the average of the three measurements
taken of the hub arm pilot tube bore (refer to measurements taken
during post installation checks after hub repair). Refer to Table 1-4 and
Table 1-4A for a listing of all current production pilot tubes and their
corresponding diameters.
NOTE: Inspection and rework of the hub pilot tube bore is required
before installation of a replacement pilot tube.
(2) Installation of Cork Seals on Inboard End of New Pilot Tubes
(a) This procedure is applicable to pilot tubes that do not use an expansion
plug to seal the pilot tube and only when all pilot tubes are being replaced
in the hub assembly. Otherwise, refer to Installation of Cork Seal on
Outboard End of Installed Pilot Tubes.
(b) For pilot tube and cork seal part number information, refer to Table 1-5.
(c) Apply sealant (CM71 or CM74) to the outer diameter of the cork seal.
1 Make sure that sealant is applied over the entire surface.
(d) Press the cork seal into the inboard end of the pilot tube until the seal is
flush or slightly below the surface of the end of the tube.
(e) Using sealant CM92, seal the outer edge of the cork seal.
(3) Put the fixture TE52 on the table of a 25 ton press.
(4) Install the hub unit in the fixture. Rotate the hub so the hub arm is facing
upward.
WARNING: ADHESIVES AND SOLVENTS ARE FLAMMABLE AND TOXIC TO

THE SKIN, EYES, AND RESPIRATORY TRACT. SKIN AND EYE
PROTECTION ARE REQUIRED. AVOID PROLONGED CONTACT
AND BREATHING OF VAPORS. USE SOLVENT RESISTANT
GLOVES TO MINIMIZE SKIN CONTACT AND WEAR SAFETY
GLASSES FOR EYE PROTECTION. USE IN A WELL VENTILATED
AREA AWAY FROM SPARKS AND FLAME. READ AND OBSERVE
ALL WARNING LABELS.
(5) Using solvent CM11, clean the hub arm bore and the OD of the pilot tube that is
to be installed.

Vol. 4, Page 1-49
VOLUME 4
CAUTION: PARTS MUST BE CLEAN AND DRY BEFORE APPLICATION OF

LUBRICANT.
(6) Apply metal protective coating lubricant CM121.
(a) For 5-bladed propellers, apply metal protective coating lubricant CM121 to
the external surface of the pilot tubes only over the portion to be installed
in the hub (not the hub arm bores).
(b) For all other applications, apply metal protective coating lubricant CM121
to each pilot tube OD and hub arm bore.
(c) Allow a minimum of 10 minutes for the lubricant to dry.
CAUTION: BE SURE THAT THE BOTTOM 1.5 INCHES (38 mm) OF THE
BORE ARE COMPLETELY COVERED WITH CORROSION
PREVENTATIVE CM75, BECAUSE THIS AREA IS NOT COVERED
BY THE PILOT TUBE.
(7) Using a swab, liberally apply corrosion preventative CM75 to the bottom
1.5 inches (38 mm) of the blade arm bore.
(8) Set the pilot tube into the hub pilot tube bore.
(a) Be sure the wider end of the tube is inserted into the hub arm.
(b) For pilot tubes with bleed holes, align the bleed hole with the forward side
of the hub, toward the cylinder threads, when placing the pilot tube in hub
arm.
CAUTION: DO NOT USE TE311 IN PLACE OF TE241.

(9) Place the stop sleeve TE241 over the pilot tube until it rests against the hub
arm. The stop sleeve is designed to set the correct distance the pilot tube will
be allowed to be pushed into the hub arm.
(10) Visually align the hub arm and pilot tube with the hydraulic press ram.
CAUTION: DO NOT EXCEED A MAXIMUM LOAD OF 25 TONS.

(11) Slowly apply hydraulic pressure until the hydraulic press ram meets the stop
sleeve. Do not exceed a maximum pressure of 25 tons. If the maximum
pressure is exceeded, retire the hub.
