Hartzell Propeller and Quest Aircraft have entered into a five-year agreement for the supply of Hartzell props for the Quest KODIAK turboprop aircraft.
Hartzell’s 96-inch four-blade aluminum propeller has been standard equipment on every KODIAK produced. The new agreement formalizes a relationship established in 2003 when Hartzell was selected by Quest for the prototype short takeoff and landing aircraft powered by the P&W PT6 engine.
Since delivering the first propeller for installation on a turboprop aircraft in the 1960s, Hartzell has a growing selection of aluminum blade models, offering propellers for all turboprop aircraft markets, with applications for Pratt & Whitney, Honeywell, GE Aviation, and Rolls-Royce engines.
Hartzell’s aluminum blade turboprop propellers are available in three-, four- and five-blade configurations utilizing either aluminum or steel hubs.
