    Default Carbon fiber spinner

    I am looking for any info to purchase a spinner to install on a jabiru 2200 using a sensenich two blade ground adjustable carbon fiber prop. I've seen some carbon fiber one's and wondering if anyone has also.

    Thanks!

    i'm also looking for a spinner. I like the carbon fiber as well, but would consider any with correct size diameter. so far all I can find is the whirlwind which kitfox sells and im not sure but murle Williams may sell as well. I've seen it advertised as a blank or cut for a 3-blade. I think its about $335.

    I used a fiberglass UHS spinner. Carbon fiber would be nice. I had to cut the prop openings myself. It has worked well and wasn't too expensive. What diameter do you need? I can post or email some pics if needed.

    I would recommend the Whirlwind carbon spinner; kind of spendy but a very nice spinner that fits the SS7 cowl nicely.

    I think my required measurement is 13.3. I see the UHS offers 13.5" and says diameter may vary 1/8 to 1/2" larger. I like the price better but not sure if i want to risk the dimensions being that far off. Maybe they will customize.

    I was able to hold tom wade's whirlwind spinner in my hands and it is light as feather, and very nice.
