Jerry,
If you have always torqued bolts to no more than 100 in/lbs, then you could mill down approximately 5-6 thou. from the hub faces to regain the gap. It would not be advisable to wrap the blade roots with any material.
Thank you,

I have a 582 rotax and have about 20 hrs on it, it started to vibrate so I checked the pitch and one blade keeps moving after each flight I have always torqued it to 100IN but it seems that the gap is very small if any,What can I do , put the half on a lath to mill down a small amount or wrap the blades with something to get back some gap between the half's is there any thing I can do to stop the blades from changing pitch in flight? They are wood three blade GSC Please help me out of this problem Thanks Jerry
