Wheels, used in conjunction with tires, provide support for the tires and weight of the aircraft. Combined with brakes, they assist in directional and stopping control during aircraft ground maneuvers, taxi, takeoff, and landing. Brake assemblies and disc combinations are designed to properly and safely decelerate the aircraft under various conditions. Brake assemblies consist of one or more pistons depending upon the aircraft requirements.
CLEVELAND Aircraft Wheel & Brake Division, a PARKER HANNIFIN business unit, designs and manufactures wheels, brakes & assemblies for worldwide aircraft markets. CLEVELAND brand wheels and brakes are used on more than 80 percent of general aviation aircraft while their wheel assemblies are offered for military and business aviation applications. Their product lines include both TSO'd aircraft wheels, brakes, and wheel and brake assemblies for nose and main wheels to meet a variety of aircraft specifications and brake assembly interfaces. Offered through their worldwide distributor network for quick parts availability. Main and nose wheels are made from either aluminum castings, magnesium castings, or aluminum forgings. The main wheels are of the divided type, incorporating inner wheel half and outer wheel half, plus a disc, which are fastened together with tie bolts, washers, and nuts. They are offered in different models to work with different tire sizes. For example, their main wheel assemblies are designed for 6.00-6 tube tires while their #40-87 nose wheel assemblies are designed for 5.00-5 tube tires. Both are intended for use in general and business aviation, turboprop passenger, and helicopter applications. Sold in single pieces or in pairs whenever specified. Their key features include:

A grease seal, often called an oil or dirt seal, is a type of seal utilized to retain grease in a case or housing. Grease seals close spaces between stationary and moving components in mechanical equipment, helping prevent lubricant escape. Preventing harmful containments from entering machinery is another critical function of a grease seal. Oil and grease seals are available in numerous lip materials. Popular materials include felt, leather, urethane, nitrile, polyacrylate, ethylene-acrylic or polyacrylic, silicone, fluoro-elastomer, tetrafluoro-ethylene propylene and PTFE. Cleveland Grease Seals are intended for use in Cleveland Wheel Assemblies. 

GROVE Wheels and Brakes are precision engineered and manufactured to provide the highest quality and performance in the aircraft industry. GROVE wheels are manufactured in both aluminum and magnesium.  Aluminum wheels are more corrosion resistant than magnesium, are less expensive, but weigh more.  Both have the same strength and performance ratings. They are offered in sets (kits) in different sizes to comply with tire and axle sizes and static load ratings to match  the static aircraft gross weight on each wheel. GROVE brakes are offered for different braking torques, a function of the hydraulic system pressure and total caliper piston area, and with different kinetic energy capabilities. Aircraft with oversized tires or with a larger than normal engine should consider brake calipers with more or larger pistons. Different brake discs offered absorb the heat energy developed during braking.

MICHELIN® Aircraft Tyres is internationally recognized as the No.1 tire manufacturer in the world. The company provides bias tires, radial tires, and tubes for aviation customers around the world, in a range of applications including commercial and regional airlines, general aviation and military aviation. 

MICHELIN® AIRSTOP® Aircraft Tire Inner Tubes provide long-lasting, dependable performance you can rely on in just about any operating condition. Made from exclusive Michelin butyl compound they offer  extended air retention and can sustain temperatures as low as -50°C.  In addition, they are formed without a circumferential splice, resulting in fewer joints and a more uniform tubewall thickness after inflation for optimized reliability at a minimal weight.  AIRSTOP tubes are manufactured to exacting balance tolerances (without correction), which meet or exceed all industry standards. This eliminates the need to further balance the wheel assembly in order to compensate for balance irregularities in the tube. Tube lubricant is factory applied to the tube exterior for easier installation and to help minimize foldover after installation and inflation. Comply with Aerospace Standard AS50141. Available in different sizes. Please also refer to the attached documentation.

Product Features:

Advanced Butyl Material

Exclusive Michelin® butyl compound offers excellent resistance to diffusion for extended air retention and dependable performance. Michelin® AIRSTOP® tubes help provide the same high quality seal found in Michelin® AIR X® radial tires.

Circular Extrusion Manufacturing Process

A Michelin® exclusive, Michelin® AIRSTOP® tubes are formed without a circumferential splice, resulting in fewer joints and a more uniform tubewall thickness after inflation. This helps provide optimized reliability at a minimal weight.

Built-In Balance

All Michelin® AIRSTOP® tubes are manufactured to exacting balance tolerances (without correction), which meet or exceed all industry standards. This eliminates the need to further balance the wheel assembly in order to compensate for balance irregularities in the tube.
