Default 5mm prop reamer



I can't seem to find a stepped prop reamer for 5mm. I've been able to find, and I have, a stepped "6mm, 7mm, 8mm" reamer from Fox manufacturing, but I can't find one for a 5mm. Does anyone know of any out there?

You may just have to use a .196 drill. I have had to before.

Get a continuous taper reamer and you won't have to worry about it. With a tapered reamer you can ream your props to what ever size you like. A tapered hole in a prop is not a problem.
