Tactair

Tactair Landing GearDoor Uplocks utilize a simple and robust mechanical latching design for retaining the Landing Gear in the 'Up' position. The latching design includes two methods of release for lowering the landing gear, a normal and alternate mode. In the normal mode, a hydraulic actuator is used to release the landing gear in the normal mode of operation. In the alternate mode, a manual release cable is used to actuate the mechanical release into the uplock.

Tactair's Main Landing Gear Retraction Actuators are designed to provide retraction and extension forces while maintaining light weight and reliability. Tactair designed and manufactures retraction actuators for regional jet, business jet as well as smaller aircraft and rotorcraft markets.

Tactair's Main Landing Gear Unlock Actuators provide the linear force necessary to unlock the over-center link in order to retract the main landing gear. Landing Gear Unlock Actuator bodies are hogged out of aluminum in a one-piece construction which is lightweight, robust, and reliable. Actuators feature spherical bearings and high strength and wear resistant materials utilized in the piston and end gland.

Tactair's Nose Landing Gear Retraction Actuators are designed to provide retraction and extension forces while maintaining light weight and reliability. Tactair designs and manufactures retraction actuators for regional jets, business jets as well as smaller aircraft and rotorcraft markets.

Tactair Nose Wheel Steering Actuators work in tandem to provide linear pushpull forces for aircraft steering. Actuators are sized for regional jets and large business jets. Tactair Nose Wheel Steering Actuators are trunnion mounted, linear actuators for nose wheel steering applications. They incorporate either single or dual coil LVDT elemends for position sensing, speherical bearings and hardened wear components for reliable operation and longevity.

Tactair Landing GearDoor Control Valves are based on proven design principles and operate daily on a variety of regional, business and military aircraft. These solenoid operated, spool and sleeve valves can be designed and sized for any architecture. Features Tactair Landing GearDoor Control valves feature a 4-Way, 3-Position design which has proven reliability and robustness. One valve can control a landing gear system or multiple valves can be incorporated into a system for separate nose landing gear, main landing gear, and landing gear door control. All Tactair spool and sleeve valves feature a hardened spool and sleeve assembly which is highly resistant to wear and provides longevity. Solenoids can be either single or dual coil design and all incorporate reverse-recovery diodes for electrical protection.
