Rice Propellers

Titan

3 TO 5 BLADES 30” - 160” DIAMETER

PERFORMANCE

• Hard working propeller. 
• Built to take heavy demands of tugs, workboats & heavy duty vessels. 
• Greater thrust in a smaller diameter.

HEAVY-DUTY

• Blade sections are larger than standard propellers for vessels with limited propeller space. 
• This powerful and efficient propeller made with oval transversal cross sections and a larger impulse surface allows a high-powered transmission. 
• 3, 4 or 5 blades from 30” up to 160” diameter.

Nautilus

3 TO 5 BLADES 30” - 160” DIAMETER

The Nautilus propeller is one of our latest developments. Its skewed design reduces the propeller pressure pulses to minimum level, allowing the smoothest and quietest operation. It is ideal for applications where underwater noise and vibration requirements are critical.

PERFORMANCE

• Low noise and vibration. 
• Smooth and quiet operation.

MED-HIGH SPEED

• Blade area ratio may vary to meet your requirements. 
• 3, 4 or 5 blades, ISO Class S, from 30” to 60” in dia., Class I and II up to 150” in dia.

Delfin

3 TO 5 BLADES 30” - 160” DIAMETER

PERFORMANCE

• Most versatile. 
• Its refined design offers high resistance, inspired in the propeller type “B-Troost”. 
• Used Worldwide on fishing, supply and workboats. 
• Its flexibility is able to cover all types of use, because it can be manufactured with 3 to 5 blades, according to the type of use or application given. 

POWER

• Blade area may vary without changing the number of blades to obtain greater thrust or more speed. 
• 3 to 7 hydro-dynamic cross-section blades, with integrated hub shapes.

Kaplan

3 TO 5 BLADES 30” - 160” DIAMETER

The Kaplan propeller is another example of our most advanced technology. This propeller is designed to be used with a nozzle in order to give shrimpers and workboats more thrust, by considerably increasing the efficiency of propellers carrying heavy loads while working at low speeds.

PERFORMANCE

• Advanced technology. 
• High efficiency with nozzle. 
• More thrust from propellers carrying heavy loads at low speeds. 
• Mn Bze, Stainless Bze or Aqualloy. 

With our leading technology, we can offer you more efficient systems.

KA-Speed

3 TO 5 BLADES 30” - 160” DIAMETER

PERFORMANCE

• Reduced force-excitation level of the propeller. 
• Offers excellent output improving blade stress distribution. 
• Smooth and silent operation (better than Kaplan propellers). 
• Blade area ratio according to your needs.

The Ka-Speed was developed by adding the advantages of skewed propellers to the traditional Kaplan style. It was conceived to be installed into our Rice Speed Nozzle for best performance, but it may also be installed in a Kort nozzle. 

*U.S. Patent No. 5799394

Crucero

3 TO 5 BLADES 30” - 60” DIAMETER

PERFORMANCE, COMFORT AND EFFICIENCY. A WAY OF LIFE AT RICE.

Designed for pleasure craft and crew boats, our Crucero propeller has become one of our most popular models. The Crucero will help your boat reach its top performance levels and planning velocity while eliminating hull-damaging vibrations. It provides a smooth and comfortable ride for you and your passengers.

Heavy Duty River Propeller

3 TO 5 BLADES 30” - 160” DIAMETER

• Exclusive designs, customized according to the needs of each and every one of our clients. 
• Extra heavy-duty sections for river applications. 
• Designs available to be used either as open wheel or inside a nozzle. 
• General use for river workboats.
• Blade area is larger than standard for boats with limited propellers space. 
• 3, 4 or 5 blades from 30" up to 160" in diameter.
