N&B Propellers

We are a division of Diverse Engineering Ltd, a marine and general engineering company well positioned at sunny Port Nelson, New Zealand

Staff at N&B Propellers have been skillfully designing and manufacturing at our premises in Vickerman Street since 1967.


We custom-build, supply and repair bronze propellers for commercial vessels and pleasure craft.

Propellers can be manufactured to suit all applications dependant upon

  • vessel type and size
  • hull configuration
  • number of engines
  • waterline length, beam and draft
  • gearbox reduction ratio
  • maximum speeds for hull and engine

We have a comprehensive  pattern library of numerous other marine fittings including:-

  • surge drums
  • stern tube arrangements
  • vents
  • cored bronze

to suit your individual requirements.

We cast 3, 4 or 5 blade propellers from nickel aluminum bronze; AB2; or manganese bronze in Diverse Engineering's non-ferrous foundry.



We can carry out

  • pitch alterations and repairs,
  • in-house static and dynamic balancing.

Our rapid and effective propeller maintenance and/or repairwork gets your vessel back on the water in the shortest time possible
