Quicksilver Modular Propeller System – An Added Advantage
The innovative Quicksilver Modular Propeller System, also known as Flo-Torq II Hub Kits, provides the option to effortlessly switch propellers, change pitch, swap from aluminum to stainless, or replace a damaged propeller. In the event of a substantial underwater obstruction, the Flo-Torq II System’s Delrin sleeve is designed to “break away” following impact. This design minimizes any possible damage to the engine, engine drive and propeller. Contrastingly, competitive hub systems exhibit delayed breakaway, thereby increasing the risk of severe damage to the engine and the drive. Additionally, the sleeve in Flo-Torq II system can be conveniently replaced by the user.
