Neat web site,

Looks like he carry’s a ton of stuff I like the verity of sizes they carry. They wouldn’t happen to carry the Hillman T nuts with 3 holes instead of 3 spikes would they? The thinnest polypropylene I could find is 1/16” on the web site and locally. I ran in to a dead end at the local Daytona plastic shop 48 x 96 is there smallest sheet and it was over 40 bucks so I skipped that. Enough material for 40 hubs. I’m trying out a Kevlar hub with a carbon disk as a rotor drupe stopper. The lay-up is curing on the mold plate right now. My hallow molded e-glass / Carbon blades have worked great, if the Kevlar hub doesn’t work ill give mc master a call. I’m assuming that Polypropylene goes to run out in cyclic loading like spring steel, I know Kevlar will work in that respect.

Thanks for the info
