Tronair currently offers 4 types of multi-head towbars. The towbars are purchased separately from the heads and in doing so, only different heads, per the aircraft, will need to be purchased saving money and valuable hangar space.
Towbars are listed by maximum weight and which heads they will accept:
All Tronair 500 series heads begin with 01-05_ _ - _ _ _ _ and are standard heads
All Tronair 800 series heads begin with 01-08_ _ - _ _ _ _ and are heavy duty heads
All heads can be changed within seconds by removing one quick release pin, pulling out the head, sliding in the desired head, and replacing the quick release pin.
Yes, Tronair has a head storage rack (part number 01-1954-6000) that holds up to five 500 series heads that is on wheels for easy movement
A 2 3/16 in (5.6 cm) I.D. towing eye is standard; however, to substitute a 2 7/8 in (7.3 cm) I.D. eyebolt insert the letter “A” as the third digit of the model number, e.g. 01A1202-0000
Aluminum (non-corrosive).
A custom towbar is designed for a specific aircraft and includes the towbar and head.
Towbars that are designed to be carried aboard an aircraft. Some of the towbars are telescoping while others break down into sections. Portable towbars have eyelets to hook to the tugs but do not have wheels.
No. Mulit-head towbars tow a variety of aircrafts at different weights and cannot be equipped with shear pins; however some of the heads available for these towbars can be purchased with shear pins.
Shear pins are designed to break if the turning radius or straight overload limit is exceeded; but the head stays secured to the towbar. These pins are designed to break to protect the aircraft landing gear from damage.
Issue: Many compatibility questions have surfaced regarding use of MIL-PRF-87257 fluid in hydraulic ground support equipment, especially units originally designed for MIL-H-5606 or MIL-PRF-83282 fluids.
Tronair engineering department has researched this subject, meeting with manufactures of materials affected by this fluid. Tronair uses a Nitrile-Buna rubber (NBR) compound for o-rings, seals, gaskets, and hoses inner tubes for MIL-H-5606 or MIL-PRF-83282 fluid.
For MIL-PRF-87257 fluid, material manufactures recommend a fluorocarbon (Viton) or high Nitrile content NBR compound for o-ring, seal, or gasket material. The hose manufacture recommends specific high density Nitrile compounds, Nylon or Teflon hose materials.
Existing Units: Tronair approves the use of units designed for MIL-H-5606 or MIL-PRF-83282 fluid for MIL-PRF-87257 fluid within an ambient temperature range of -20 to 100º F. Any unit that incorporates a hand pump will require upgrading, contact Tronair for proper rebuild kit. The long terms effects are shortened seal and hose life.
Contact Tronair sales department (800-426-6301) for proper flushing instructions.
New Units: Tronair has released hydraulic units specifically designed for MIL-PRF-87257 fluid, which uses the materials recommended by the manufactures. Contact Tronair sales department (800-426-6301) or see or website at www.tronair.com for details.
The screw on the front is used to calibrate the gauge. Try turning the screw to the zero point and check the unit.
