    "Most" of the hubs from that era, including the JN4, had 8 bolt holes.

    I agree the backplate is probably missing but this was def off an airplane. An airplane from the early 1900's as it was found along with many original Curtiss Jenny 1918 pieces. Thanks for the continued help.

    Agree. The cap nut is not something standard on aircraft, and a normal hub assembly would have 2 plates, one front and one rear, with a splined or keyed hub connecting them.

    Hi,

    IMHO, largely too heavy for an a/c part.

    Nickel Plated hub
    6 Holes
    Weighs 10lbs
    Center Hole 2 1/4 Inches
    Bolts were cut so hub could fit as a display on another wooden propeller.
    Bolts holes are 2 3/4 inches apart and 5 1/2 inches from bolt hole to bolt hole across from each other.
    Center

    Whoever can help out will receive a nice gift in the mail.

    Thanks
Working...
