Sensenich Aluminium Propeller Manufacturing Standards

Material & Construction

Sensenich manufactures all metal propellers from 2025 forged aluminium, selected for its optimal strength-to-weight characteristics and corrosion resistance properties essential for aircraft propeller applications. The forged aluminium construction provides superior blade integrity compared to cast alternatives, ensuring reliable performance across the operational envelope of general aviation aircraft.

Precision Manufacturing Process

Each Sensenich aluminium propeller is CNC machined to exacting specifications, followed by precision hand-finishing to achieve the tight tolerances required for optimal aerodynamic efficiency and vibration characteristics. This combination of automated precision machining and skilled craftsman finishing ensures consistent quality across production batches while maintaining the dimensional accuracy critical for propeller balance and performance.

Quality Assurance & Testing

Sensenich subjects every manufactured propeller to a rigorous 56-point inspection protocol, verifying dimensional accuracy, surface finish, and structural integrity before certification. All aluminium propellers undergo comprehensive vibration testing to ensure compatibility with approved engine applications, with test data verified against FAA certification standards before propellers are cleared for aircraft installation.

Propeller Bolt Kits

All Sensenich metal propellers are supplied complete with certified propeller bolt kits specifically matched to the propeller hub design and engine flange configuration. Bolt kits include all necessary hardware for proper propeller installation, ensuring operators have complete attachment hardware meeting FAA specifications for the specific aircraft-engine combination.
