The Britannia turbo prop also had two types of props

The 102 with slightly less powerfull engines had hollow square end steel props
The 312 with more powerfull engines had round tip solid dural props

However when the steel props became rare the 102 also started to use solid round tip props as long as matching engines had them say 1 & 4 or 2 & 3

Also the Lockheed Constellation also in some types used hollow steel blades which had round tips
