Wheel and Brake Assemblies

Wheel Assemblies, Brake Assemblies, and Complete Kits

After mastering the bush tire, in 2013 Airframe's Alaskan Bushwheels turned to improving the standard Cleveland wheel and brake design. The FAA-PMA result of that design process is the line of ABI wheel and brake kits. Due to the material improvement of being made with aluminum versus magnesium, ABI wheel and brake kits improve corrosion resistance and part longevity particularly in wet or salty environments. ABI kits contain all components required to replace the existing wheels and brakes for one aircraft. 

  • Anodized using MIL SPEC A-8625, Type II, Class II, Black
  • More resistant to corrosion
  • Longer lasting
  • Complete kit and subassembly parts available
  • FAA-PMA Approved
  • Use APS Black Steel brake discs
