Beech 1900D with Hartzell four-blade composite propellers

Piqua, Ohio, April 22, 2019 — Hartzell Propeller has added legacy four-blade structural composite propellers for Beechcraft 1900C and 1900D turboprop aircraft to the company’s Top Prop lineup. Hartzell’s props were offered as standard equipment on Beechcraft 1900 series aircraft.

“We are now offering special pricing on these new propellers for the popular 19-passenger Beech 1900C and 1900D airliners,” said Hartzell EVP and GM JJ Frigge. “This program is offered exclusively through the Hartzell Top Prop distribution network.”

Lower pricing for each propeller, including polished spinner assembly, is $68,000 for the 1900C and $75,000 for the 1900D. Pricing for the 1900D is the same for both high and low watt de-ice boots. Additional discounts are available to fleet operators directly from Hartzell or one of the company’s Recommended Service Facilities.

Operators can reduce operating cost by re-investing in proven technology and taking advantage of Hartzell’s industry leading warranty, which provides coverage through the first overhaul. Both the 1900C and 1900D propellers utilize Hartzell’s proven structural composite technology, which has accumulated millions of flight hours and maintains unmatched dispatched reliability.

Beech Aircraft and its successor Raytheon Aircraft produced nearly 700 of these commuter class aircraft from 1984 through 2002. Today, these aircraft are used worldwide by charter companies, feeder and regional airlines, cargo services, and private companies.

Hartzell Propeller is the global leader in advanced technology aircraft propeller design and manufacturing for business, commercial and government customers. The company designs next generation propellers with innovative “blended airfoil” technology and manufactures them with revolutionary machining centers, robotics and custom resin transfer molding curing stations.
