That's a scary looking prop hub for a 45cc.

It's steel, see the rust ? The engine is not a 45cc anyway..There's a 5/16-24 thread on the end of the crank.....The 100cc Quadras use the same setup, made from aluminum and larger..New 75 and 100 cc Quadras have 2 button head screws at the outer diameter to keep the hub from loosening...

You're kinda hard to convince;)...It was a Quadra before it was a US Engines...Been through 2 or 3 companies in the last 30 years or so....Give Dick Benett a call at www.bennettbuilt.com, or look at his website...You have to type the address in your search engine, it won't go there from here....No free advertising maybe ?
Look on page 11 of his online catalog....
