When to replace a prop?

The only thing I can see as a concern is if there is corrosion happening
inside the hub or on the roots of the blade. I got rid of mine, very low
time like yours but they were 1983 vintage. Here they are pulled apart
every five years for inspection.

If the prop concerns you, what about the age of the aircraft? ; )

The aircraft isn't getting subjected to the forces the prop hub gets
subjected to. IIRC, the number I heard was something like 20 tons of
force pulling out on the prop hub, and if you've ever seen a slow motion
video of a spinning prop, you'd be amazed at how flexible those blades
really are.
