Outboards and Sterndrives
We recondition and balance aluminum, SST, nibral, and bronze props from 2 to 8 blades. Pitch change can be done along with cupping. Reconditioning and balancing of your props will return them to specifications for less than the cost of a new propeller. We replace bushings in propellers including Volvo.

Dynamic Balancing
Our computer-based Dynamic Balancing Machine uses a computer and an analog to a digital conversion system which gathers data and performs the mathematical equations necessary to determine the amount of unbalance. This technology enables us to balance props closer than ever.

Hale MRI
The Prop Shop of Wilmington, Inc uses the Hale MRI which gives you a computer measurement and reporting of the propeller geometry which also measures and compares every degree of radii.

Line graphs show actual blade curves at a measured radii. Line and bar graphs provide tolerance boxes using the ISO 484/1 and ISO 484/2 standards. The Hale MRI provides a method of ensuring accurate measurements of propellers.

Couplings and Marine Bearings
We have all hardware including full nuts, jam nuts, cotter pins, SST keying, Morse marine bearings, and Lasdrop shaft seals.

Shaft Straightening
We staighten up to 4½" shafts by using our heavy-duty straightening and precision V-blocks. The Prop Shop of Wilmington, Inc can custom machine thread and cut Keyway to fit your needs. We stock a large inventory and shafting up to 4½" in diameter using Aquatech 17, 19, and 22. We are equipped to recondition your present shaft up to 4½" in diameter.
