Prince P-Tip Propellers
Prince P-tip props are the only wood / composite anti-vortex droop tipped propeller in the world. This propeller is a wood, fixed pitch propeller that relies on the forward pull of the propeller to automatically provide pitch change proportional to the amount of force being applied to the propeller disk. When a propeller operates at a slower airspeed than its maximum capabilities, it has a proportional pull in relation to the velocity of forward motion. At takeoff and climbing condition the propeller has its largest forward pull, due to the scimitar shape. The tip of the propeller cones forward, as the coning angle changes the propeller will lessen pitch providing shorter takeoffs and higher rates of climb. As the propeller increases in forward speed the disk pressure is reduced, forcing the propeller to increase pitch and top speed. This change in pitch is approximately 4" from takeoff to cruise. The droop P-TIP delays the vortices. The propeller then has smooth air to provide better thrust and a pronounced reduction in propeller noise. Additional benefit of the P-TIP design is the volume of air the propeller produces. When air flows through a standard tip propeller design the airflow at the tip will flow over the propeller tip, as soon as it passes the tip it will tuck down behind the propeller blade giving a cone of air from the propeller smaller than the propeller diameter. A 68" P-TIP will give the same volume of air as a standard tip 72" propeller. By reducing propeller diameter there is less frontal area or flat plate drag of the aircraft, higher top speeds are the result without sacrificing takeoff or climb.

Prince P-Tip Wood Propeller
Made to order only
Prince Bespoke P-Tip Propeller available to order for any aircraft, 2,3 or 4 blade
The original Prince P-TIP Propeller Considered to be one of the most efficient and lowest noise propellers available. This propeller is a wood, fixed pitch propeller that relies on the forward pull of the propeller to automatically provide pitch change proportional to the amount of force being applied to the propeller disk.
Multiple layers of Hard Rock Maple is used throughout construction. All propeller blanks are constructed in house to control quality. Urea Formaldehyde adhesive meets Military Specifications to insure reliable operation and trouble free flying for the life of the propeller. Unless otherwise specified, propellers are finished in a metal prop gray color. This shade will match nearly every paint scheme. The Durability and Ultrahigh Gloss finish is a two-part Urethane, machine buffed to achieve a propeller that reflects the quality of manufacturing like no other propeller available.
You will receive the benefits of a lightweight, pitch changing propeller that will give you the best of short takeoff, maximum cruise, and more flying enjoyment in a quieter cockpit.
Though not as durable as the Carbon Fiber P-TIP propeller, it is an excellent option that provides lower cost and weight.

Prince P-Tip Carbon Fibre Propeller
Made to order only
Prince Bespoke P-Tip Carbon Fibre Propellers available to order for any aircraft, 2,3 or 4 blade
This propeller is undoubtedly the best propeller for your aircraft that can be purchased today. It retains the same qualities of the wood P-TIP but is more efficient and durable. We use the reliable time proven wood core of hard maple and then completely enclose the blades in multiple layers of high tensile strength Carbon Fiber. The hardwood core absorbs the dangerous harmonic vibrations and benefits your airframe by smoothing the engine power pulses. The Carbon Fiber wrapping allows the airfoils sections to be thinner, reducing drag while increasing durability and locks each blade into operating at precise angles.
The best working propeller is one that is rigid enough to allow all blades to move alike, thin at all cord sections to eliminate as much drag as possible, and strong enough to satisfy the large amounts of stress required during flight. Our wood P-TIP propeller has proven to be very effective in performance gains, but our customers have reported the Carbon Fiber P-TIP has provided even better performance.
