MT-Propeller natural composite blades have been a success since they were first built.
Because of their natural composite construction, they are much lighter than aluminum propeller systems, have a higher vibration dampening coefficient compared to foam core composite blades.
By this they also reduce vibration because the composite material does not support harmonics. No restricted rpm ranges, red bands for those blades on certified installations. Those blades have an unlimited blade life, because they can be brought back to the exact factory dimensions during overhaul. Even after a ground strike the blade tips can be rebuilt to the new original dimensions.
The first MT-Propeller blades manufactured in year 1981 are still in service.
Their light weight makes it possible to add more blades to a propeller system, which means that 3-blade conversions, for example, can run more quietly than large 2-blade systems, and in addition, smaller propeller arc disks have less drag than larger diameter propeller arc disks. Even 7-bladed propellers for turboprops are now available with lower loads on the engine during operation, compared to classic propeller systems.
This makes MT propellers the first choice for many aircraft owners and aerobatic pilots.
MT propeller blades are also the best choice for wind tunnels, airships and hovercraft.

TCCA Canada STC for Beech KingAir 300 series with 7-blade MTV-47
MT-Propeller Entwicklung GmbH received the TCCA Canada STC No. SA26-78 for the installation of the "Silent 7" 7-bladed MT-Propeller MTV-47-1-( )-C-F-R(P)/CFR260-361( ) on the Beech KingAir 300 Series powered by the propeller turbines Pratt & Whitney Canada PT6A-60A: for the Models 300, 300LW, B300, B300C and PT6A-67A: optional for the Models B300 und B300C.
This installation is already certified by EASA STC 10085161 and FAA STC SA11914IB.
The 7-bladed MT-Propellers on the Beech KingAir 300 Series provide a general performance improvement (8% take-off & climb, 4-5 kts cruise), lower ITTs at high altitude and no propeller speed restrictions on ground while operating in low idle. They reduce cabin noise and vibration significantly and all models comply with the strict German noise regulations 2010 - „LandeplatzLärmschutz Verordnung“ for unrestricted airport operations in Germany and other European Countries.

More about us
MT-Propeller was founded in 1980 by Gerd Muehlbauer, who had already 20 years of experience in propeller development and service at this time. He started his new own company on January 2nd 1981 at the Airport Straubing-Wallmuehle (EDMS) in Germany with 6 employees in a small, one-storey airport owned building.
