In Response To: Re: PROPS (JohnD)

For the stubborn props that just won't come off, I will put the puller on and use a propane torch to heat the hub up. I have had good success with that, doesn't take much heat to get it to pop. A bigger hammer will always work too, but I try to avoid excessive pounding.

Not sure which never seize is being used, but some will cause/creat or promote corrosion between the two materials, props being Bronze/Nibral and SS Shaft. I like to keep mating surfaces clean.
