Aircraft Wheel and Brake Change Trailer

The aircraft wheel and brake change service support trailers have been primarily designed to aid with fast, safe and effective wheel and brake change operations on the ramp, around the airport and even within the hangar.

Designed to accommodate any two aircraft wheels (up to A380 size), one wheel and brake change dolly, one axle jack and a multitude of aircraft tooling, the Newbow Aerospace wheel and brake change trailer is the ultimate aviation mobile service support centre. The trailer is accessed via the spring balanced rear ramp door that offers a minimal gradient, which allows one person to easily load and off-load large aircraft wheels and the axle jack. Inside the trailer is a centrally mounted (removable) workbench that allows operators to undertake any additional tasks. The front mounted towing arm features an integrated double acting parking brake.

The operator can manually engage the parking brake when pushing the towing arm to the vertical position or automatic engagement when towing arm is free hanging in the horizontal position. The complete trailer consists of a primer and 2-pack paint finish, offering skydrol resilience and added longevity. For optimum efficiency during aircraft turnaround and maintenance cycles, the aircraft wheel and brake change trailer can be offered with a fully certified nitrogen charging system which is externally located at the front of the trailer. The nitrogen system consists of a modular weatherproof charging cabinet featuring a calibrated low and high pressure configuration, two auto-retractable hose reels, a cylinder connection manifold and two gas cylinder stowage points and restraints. In addition, the aircraft wheel and brake change trailers can be fully customized ahead of manufacture to meet any individual and operator requirements. In association with our strategic partner network, global re-calibration, service, repair and overhaul of the nitrogen cabinet is offered along with a charging system exchange scheme.
