Aircraft Jacks & Lifting Equipment
Aircraft jacks and lifting equipment raise an aircraft at its jack points for landing-gear, tyre and brake work and for weighing. Tripod jacks fall under ATA chapter 7 (lifting and shoring) in Tronair's catalogue and range from 5 to 40 tons [1][2]; hydraulic power units are listed under Ground Support Equipment. Novatelia sources selected jacks by RFQ for operators and MROs in Oman and qualified GCC projects.
Applications
- Lifting aircraft at jack points for gear swings, tyre and brake work and weighing [3].
- Providing hydraulic pressure and flow for ground testing of flight controls and landing gear, e.g. Boeing 787 configurations of the Tronair 59 Series HPU [4].
Equipment types
- Tripod jacks from 5 to 40 tons, with hand pump or air pump [1][2].
- Multi-stage jacks with roll-under closed heights for low aircraft [3].
- Electric hydraulic power units with adjustable pressure and fine filtration [4].
Technologies
- Threaded rams with safety nut and built-in pressure relief valve [3].
- Hydraulic fluid MIL-PRF-5606 in tripod jacks [3].
- HPU filtration: 2-micron absolute pressure filter and 5-micron return filter (ISO 4572 Beta ratings) [4].
How to select equipment
- Use the aircraft maintenance manual jack-point loads and closed heights; Tronair lists aircraft applications per jack [3][2].
- Check whether an aircraft-specific adaptor is needed [1].
- For HPUs, match fluid type (e.g. HyJet V), pressure range and flow to the aircraft [4].
Customer types
- Airline hangars and line stations
- MRO and heavy-maintenance facilities
- Business-aviation FBOs and operators
Maintenance of GSE
- Tronair lists periodic spares such as annual filter-element and gauge replacements for its HPUs [4].
- Seal repair kits are listed as as-required spares for tripod jacks [3].
