AERO Design Ltd. gets key TC certification

December 12, 2012  By Carey Fredericks

Dec. 12, 2012, Calgary, Alta. - AERO Design Ltd. has announced Transport Canada certification of its Replacement Cyclic Friction Assembly for the Bell 206B, 206L Series, and 407, Supplemental Type Certificate SH12-59.


The Replacement Cyclic Friction Assembly is a direct replacement for the original knob and shaft assembly used to tighten the cyclic friction. The replacement part removes the typical wear items from the original configuration, including the barrel nuts and threaded shaft. Friction is achieved with a cam-lever action, which can provide more friction than the original configuration, and is easier to use.

The installation procedure is similar to the original part, and minimum friction is set as per the maintenance manual. Installation time is approx. 10 minutes.
