Propellers and Housings

Anchor Express is a well-known retailer for marine electronics and hardware, carrying an extensive catalog of Turning Point Propellers and their associated MasterGuard Hub Kits.

When shopping for these parts, it's important to understand that Turning Point uses a two-piece system: the Propeller Housing (the outer part with blades) and the Hub Kit (the inner part that connects to your engine's shaft). This modular design allows you to keep your hub kit even if you need to replace a damaged prop housing.

Propeller Housings

Propeller housings are categorized by their material and the number of blades. Stainless steel offers maximum durability and speed, while aluminum is a cost-effective choice for general boating.

• The Turning Point Express Mach4 Propeller is a high-performance stainless steel 4-blade housing. It is engineered for enhanced acceleration, better cornering, and stern lift, making it ideal for watersports and heavy loads.

• For a 3-blade stainless option, the Solas New Saturn Propeller is a versatile all-around performer. It features a large blade design that provides excellent mid-range fuel efficiency and is highly resistant to rust.

• If you prefer aluminum, the Turning Point Hustler Aluminum Right-Hand Propeller utilizes a "squeeze cast" process for added strength. It is designed to match the performance of some stainless models while offering a smoother ride and improved hole-shot.

Hub Kits and Installation Hardware

The "housing" alone cannot be mounted without a compatible hub kit. Anchor Express frequently pairs Turning Point props with their MasterGuard installation kits.

• The Flo-Torq II Hub Kit is a widely compatible system designed to protect your lower unit from impact. It is field-serviceable, meaning you can often replace just the hub if you hit an object, saving the cost of a full propeller.

Summary of Choice

• For Maximum Performance: Choose the Express Mach4 (4-blade stainless) for superior grip and lift.

• For Versatility: The Solas New Saturn offers a great balance of speed and fuel economy.

• For Value: The Turning Point Hustler provides stainless-like performance at an aluminum price point.
