What is an Aircraft Propeller Hub Nut?

An Aircraft Propeller Hub Nut (NUT,AIRCRAFT PROPELLER HUB) is a nut designed to mate with the threaded propeller shaft or crankshaft of an aircraft engine to retain the propeller hub. It is cylindrical in shape and has holes in the periphery for wrenching.

What is an Aircraft Propeller Hub-Blade Assembly?

An Aircraft Propeller Hub-Blade Assembly (HUB-BLADE ASSEMBLY,PROPELLER,AIRCRAFT) is an assemblage of an aircraft propeller hub and a set of aircraft propeller blades which in itself does not form a complete aircraft propeller.

What is an Aircraft Propeller?

An Aircraft Propeller (PROPELLER,AIRCRAFT) is a propeller designed to provide thrust for a fixed or tilt wing aircraft. It may be of solid or built-up construction; constant or controllable speed type; adjustable, fixed or variable pitch design with reversing and/or feathering capabilities during aircraft operation. Variable pitch propellers have integral facilities for changing the pitch angle of the blades while aircraft is in flight. Excludes HUB-BLADE ASSEMBLY, PROPELLER, AIRCRAFT. See also TEST CLUB.

A Test Club is a device resembling a propeller, designed to be mounted on an aircraft engine shaft to absorb engine power during test or run-in, and usually to provide some airflow for engine cooling purposes. May be of adjustable, fixed or variable pitch design. The pitch angle of fixed pitch clubs cannot be changed, adjustable pitch clubs may be manually changed, variable pitch clubs can be mechanically changed while TEST CLUB is in operation. Includes aircraft propellers that are converted to test use.

What is an Aircraft Components Modification Kit?

An Aircraft Components Modification Kit (MODIFICATION KIT,AIRCRAFT COMPONENTS) is an item or items employed individually or conjunctively to modify aircraft components.

What is an Adapter Assembly Front Cone?

An Adapter Assembly Front Cone (CONE,FRONT,ADAPTER ASSEMBLY) is a conical shaped item (actually a frustum of a cone) with a flange on the base end. The smaller end is designed to be inserted into the conical end of a cone, rear.

What is an Aircraft Propeller Cam?

An Aircraft Propeller Cam (CAM,PROPELLER,AIRCRAFT) is a cylindrical device with irregular shaped slots which may rotate in a limited arc of travel for the purpose of changing the pitch of radiating blades.

What is an Adapter Assembly Rear Cone?

An Adapter Assembly Rear Cone (CONE,REAR,ADAPTER ASSEMBLY) is a tubular item with a conical shaped end (actually a frustum of a cone) having the base of the cone with a greater diameter than the tubular portion of the item that it is part of.

What is an Aircraft Propeller Synchrophaser Assembly?

An Aircraft Propeller Synchrophaser Assembly (SYNCHROPHASER ASSEMBLY,AIRCRAFT PROPELLER) is a device which assists the system's hydromechanical governors during flight operation, and helps to regulate propeller rotation. Consists of synchrophaser and adapter.

What is an Aircraft Propeller Valve Controller Assembly?

An Aircraft Propeller Valve Controller Assembly (CONTROLLER ASSEMBLY,VALVE,AIRCRAFT PROPELLER) is an assembly of items which controls high pressure hydraulic fluid flow to the propeller hub positioning mechanism. It may consist of various valves, gears, bearing, springs, cams, levers, solenoids, switches and a speed governor assembly, Input commands may be mechanical or electrical. It attaches to a hydraulic pump housing to form a propeller control assembly.

What is an Aircraft Propeller Blade?

An Aircraft Propeller Blade (BLADE,PROPELLER,AIRCRAFT) is an airfoil, which is the thrust producing and major torque absorbing component of an aircraft propeller. It is provided with a suitable root section for assembly in an aircraft propeller hub. It may include retention hardware, cuff, and/or ice control components.

What is an Aircraft Propeller Hub?

An Aircraft Propeller Hub (HUB,PROPELLER,AIRCRAFT) is a hub upon which aircraft propeller blades and pitch control assemblies and/or mechanisms are installed to construct a PROPELLER, AIRCRAFT. It may be of either assembled or solid machined construction.

What is an Aircraft Propeller Spinner?

An Aircraft Propeller Spinner (SPINNER,PROPELLER,AIRCRAFT) is a fairing, of conical or parabolical shape at the nose, which is mounted coaxially with an aircraft propeller (and revolves with it). It encloses the hub and pitch controlling assembly and/or mechanism for protection against damage from foreign object. It serves to streamline the flow of air through the propeller.

What is an Aircraft Electrical Deicer?

An Aircraft Electrical Deicer (DEICER,ELECTRICAL,AIRCRAFT) is a component of an aircraft deicing system which has heating resistances. It is designed to be mounted on external fixed or moving aircraft components such as wings or foils leading edge, antennas, propellers, rotary wing blades and the like. It is used in severe weather conditions for deicing or prevent from icing.

Additional Information for Aircraft Propellers and Components

NATO Supply Class 1610 is a classification within NATO Supply Group 16, which is dedicated to Aerospace Craft Components And Accessories.

Specifically, NATO Supply Class 1610 focuses on Aircraft Propellers And Components. This includes various types of propellers used in aircraft, as well as the components that are necessary for their operation and maintenance.

The purpose of this classification is to provide a standardized system for categorizing and organizing the supply of aircraft propellers and related components within NATO member countries. This helps ensure efficient procurement, maintenance, and logistics support for aerospace craft.

By using this classification system, NATO member countries can easily identify and procure the necessary propellers and components for their aircraft, ensuring compatibility and interoperability among different nations' aerospace fleets.

It is important to note that this classification system is specific to NATO member countries and is used primarily for military purposes. It helps facilitate cooperation and coordination among member nations in terms of aerospace craft components and accessories.
