Default What kind of spinner for large props

Hey guys what kind of spinner do ya'll use on the big 18x6 size props, Most of the Alum. spinners I see the cone bolts on from the front but I using the wacker engine hubs that use a bolt to attach the prop not a nut..

I bought a plastic spinner that fits a 16x8 but the 18" prop is to large for it.

there are threaded bolts out there that will allow the use of a tru-turn spinner, or other brand. If you don't find the size you need, most any machine shop can drill and tap a high grade bolt for you at a minimal fee... I would think wacker would also provide threaded prop bolts. Most conversion supply shops do.

most of the lower end gas engines on the market, sell threaded prop bolts for their engines. Just figure out the size you have, and start looking. Even tower hobbies has em for Fuji engines....etc.

I guess it would be pretty easy to just drill and tap the bolt head..

I was just thinking there might be a brand I don't know about that mounts like the smaller plastic kind do.

Thanks.
