DART Helicopters Services Receives FAA and Transport Canada Approval of Stainless Steel Wearplates & Wearpads for Bell 206/407

DART Helicopter Services is pleased to announce that DART Round-I-Beam™ Float Skidtubes, manufactured by affiliated partner, DART Aerospace, will now come standard with Stainless Steel Wearplates, Gaskets, Stainless Steel Wearpads and all Stainless Steel Hardware. The incorporation of stainless steel wearplates and wearpads into the Round-I-Beam™ Float Skidtube design will considerably minimize premature corrosion in marine environments. Additionally, operators will now be able to significantly reduce maintenance costs and downtime by increasing aircraft landing gear inspection intervals from every 100 hours to every 300 hours. Manufacturing highlights include:

  • Stainless steel wearpads which are welded with tungsten carbide welds for added protection
  • Gaskets installed at connection points minimize galvanic corrosion and facilitate installation, removal and inspection of wearplates without the need for sealant.

DART Aerospace is continuing to add approvals of DART Round-I-Beam™ skidtubes with standard stainless steel wearplates and wearpads and currently offers this design for the following aircraft:

  • Bell 212/412
  • EC 135

Jeff Shapiro, Dart Helicopter Services CEO stated, "The addition of stainless steel hardware to all of our landing gear products shows DART's commitment to ever-improving our products. We continue to make our products better, without raising the price, allowing operators to reduce their costs of operation."
