This OS barrel nut reaches up under the prop to grab the threads

Maybe I should explain further I have dubro prop nut that I wanted to use but because of the thickness of the prop I can't use it, I was hoping maybe a Zinger or Master Airscrew would work..... Thanks Carl

The nut in the link is tapped in the center for a spinner retaining screw

OK, So what your saying is that the Dubro prop nut won't fit as purchased, that I need to ream the prop and use part of the OS retaining nut and screw the prop nut to the retaining nut ,I thought about this but have'nt seen anything online that will mate the two together???

The link I sent you will only work with a hollow spinner like a Tru Turn.

It will not work with spinner nuts
