Aircraft Tire Inflation and Valve Service Kit

Overview

The aircraft tire inflation and valve service kit is intended for wheel and tire maintenance on the ramp, in hangars, wheel shops, and MRO facilities. In the supplied image, the main assembly includes a flexible hose with metallic end fittings, a hand-operated tool with a grip and control lever, and a dedicated tire-valve service connection. Several service accessories are also visible, including four valve cores, four black protective caps, a multi-function valve-core service tool, a threaded adapter or fitting, and a roll of PTFE thread-sealing tape. These items can support valve-core removal and installation, replacement of service items, connection preparation, and general tire-valve maintenance. By grouping the required tire and valve service tools into one kit, the set can support more organized maintenance and flight-line servicing. Performance specifications such as allowable working pressure, pressure range, exact valve connection type, coupling type, hose material, and compatibility with compressed air or nitrogen must be confirmed only from AKAM TECHNIC's final engineering design and datasheet. No technical specification in this file has been derived from text printed on the hose.
