The first rice propellers were made in 1911 for the local fishing fleet in Mexico by Maximino Rice. As the demand for bigger and better commercial propellers grew, the Rice Propeller company expanded and adapted to become a leader in propulsion systems. Today it manufactures world reknown propellers from 30" to 140" in diameter (ISO ‘S’ class from 30" up to 60" and ‘I’ and ‘II’ classes up to 140") for the demands of heavy duty work vessels. Rice is also a leader in nozzle systems with its highly touted Rice Speed Nozzle System which is replacing Kort Nozzles as a standard in the industry.

Rice has now manufactured over 25,000 commercial propellers and over 6,000 nozzle systems. Despite the variations in the marine market through the years and after competing in today's open and changing markets, the people at Rice's Propellers have maintained their commitment to producing the finest quality propellers in the world. They continue to explore new technologies through co-operative programs with naval research, development centres and leading testing facilities worldwide.
