Saito 1.80 shaft size?

Hi all,



Does anyone know what drill size I need for my prop to fit the shaft on the above engine? Neither of my prop reamers are large enough.



TIA, Jim


I believe you will find it is 10mm. I had to buy a metric bit just for this for my two 150's and an 180.. Dan Thompson (AMA 32873, EAA 60974, WB4GUK, GROL) remove POST in address for email

I use either an X or a Y size drill bit.

From the site

"You will need the 7,8mm reamer for the 50,56,65,80,91,100 engines. You will need a 10mm reamer for the 120, 150,180 engines; although the thread size is

8x1.25 mm, the base shaft is a smooth 10mm diameter."

I had the same question on mine, and someone pointed me to this site.

Ah! Thanks again for your help. 10mm reamer enroute from Horizon (I hope).

Jim
