• Similar mechanical properties to aluminum and stainless
steel
• Improved impact resistance, durability, and vibration
damping properties
• Injection moldable
• Enabled up to 20% more impact resistance compared to standard
long fiber reinforced materials, including the incumbent material
• Improved durability and vibration damping allowing the blades to
flex and absorb energy from minor impacts
• Facilitated an interchangeable blade system providing a cost-
effective solution for repairs and tuning of propulsion thrust to meet
a boat’s intended use, for either speed or transporting loads
• Enhanced design flexibility allowing for the innovative blade design
to provide 400% more reverse thrust than standard propellers and
twice as much as competing metal propellers
