Description
Engine Bearer
Exceptional Strength-to-Weight Ratio: Spruce offers the ideal balanceit's significantly lighter than traditional hardwoods (like Beech), yet provides superior stiffness and strength, ensuring your models weight remains low without compromising on durability.
Vibration Resistance: The long, straight grain structure of Spruce provides excellent rigidity, which is crucial for dampening the high-frequency vibration produced by internal combustion engines, protecting the surrounding airframe from fatigue damage.
The Structural Backbone: Engine bearers are the most critical structural part of the model's power train. They provide a solid, true surface for mounting engine feet and firewalls, ensuring perfect alignment of the propeller or drive shaft.
Easy to Work: Despite its strength, Spruce cuts cleanly and can be drilled and shaped with standard hobby tools, allowing you to easily customise the fit for your specific engine mount or thrust line requirements.
