Airwolf Aerospace Tension-Torsion Straps for Bell 206 and 206L

Montreal, Canada - Airwolf Aerospace's tension-torsion (TT) straps for Bell 206 helicopters have received FAA approval for a 36-month/1,200-hour calendar life extension. TT straps for the Bell 206 Jet Ranger, 206L Long Ranger and OH-58 helicopters previously had a 24-month/1,200-hour life limit.

"The extension of the calendar life of our TT Straps is the next phase in our development of this innovative product," says John Montana, Airwolf Aerospace technical director. "We’ve had an incredible response so far from customers who purchased our original straps, which were launched in March 2011. We expect to serve even more Bell 206/206L operators with our 36-month TT straps. We worked over seven years to bring our original product to the market, and now customers have an even more affordable, FAA/PMA alternative, STCd for their Bell 206 helicopters.”

Airwolf manufactures its straps under its FAA parts manufacturer approval (PMA). The straps are STCd by FAA, EASA, ANAC and TCCA.
