MAU Type CU3 Marine Propeller

Fixed-pitch MAU-series propeller in CU3 nickel-aluminum bronze (600–850 MPa tensile), 3 to 6 blades, diameters from under 1 m to over 8 m, for cargo ships, tankers, passenger vessels and workboats.

Description

The MAU Type CU3 Marine Propeller is a fixed-pitch propeller with MAU-series blade geometry, cast in CU3 nickel-aluminum bronze for commercial and civilian vessels.

Material

  • CU3 nickel-aluminum bronze: 77–82% copper, 3–6% nickel, 7–11% aluminum, plus trace iron and manganese
  • Tensile strength 600–850 MPa
  • Density 5–12% lower than CU1 bronze propellers
  • Resistant to seawater corrosion, cavitation erosion and biofouling; no dezincification

Configurations

  • 3, 4, 5 or 6 blades: 3–4 blades for faster light-duty vessels (yachts, small cargo ships); 5–6 blades for heavy-load ships (tankers, bulk carriers)
  • Diameter customizable from below 1 m to over 8 m to match engine output
  • One-piece casting with CNC-machined and polished blade surfaces

Applications

  • Cargo ships, oil tankers and bulk carriers
  • Passenger ships, marine engineering vessels and yachts
