SECTION 1 | Introduction The Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company, founded in 1898, has been producing aircraft tires since 1909 and retreading aircraft tires since 1927. Goodyear manufactures new aircraft tires in the United States, Brazil, and Thailand. Retreading facilities are located in the United States, Brazil, Thailand, and the Netherlands. Goodyear aircraft tires meet exacting specifications, are qualified to perform safely and economically, and help withstand the most stringent demands set forth by today’s high performance aircraft. Specific data on the proper tire sizes for different...

GOODYEAR AIRPLANE INNTERTUBES ARE MANUFACTURED TO RIGID STANDARDS • Meets or exceeds all commercial and military performance requirements. o Meets MIL-I-5014 military specification except for packaging. All tubes are individually wrapped in .005mm gauge clear plastic and cardboard boxed in various quantities. • Made from natural rubber which offers long life and meets cold temperature performance requirements. • Factory balanced. The heavy spot is marked with a yellow stripe. If it does not have a stripe the valve is considered the heavy spot. • The valve stem, core and cap are manufactured...

The application information presented within this manual is based on the most current information available and is intended for use as a GENERAL REFERENCE ONLY. Any inquiries regarding specific model aircraft should be directed to the applicable airframe manufacturer. Your requirements may vary depending upon the actual configuration of your aircraft. All Goodyear tires are manufactured in accordance with TSO-C62, MIL-T-5041, AIR8505A and/or applicable airframe manufacturer specifications. Additionally, all tire sizes included in this manual may not necessarily be available from Goodyear....

TT=Tube-Type TL=Tubeless SC=Smooth Contour SECTION 7 | Engineering and Technical Information Whether designing aircraft tires or simply talking about them, standardization of terms is important to ensure a common understanding between user, supplier, and manufacturer. MAIN WHEEL TIRES In the selecting tires for a newly designed aircraft, allowances should be made for increases in load bearing capability. Aircraft size generally grows during the life cycle of the airframe from prototype to first production units and eventually to heavier weight versions to meet operator requirements....

Load Ratings Used for Helicopters Aircraft Tire Dimensions and Deflection Helicopter tires have special load ratings. When used on helicopters, standard aircraft tires may be rated up to a factor of 1.50 for both load and inflation. In limited cases, maximum inflation of 1.8 times normal inflation may be permissible. These factors are to be applied to ratings shown in the tables for standard aircraft tires. Maximum allowable dimensions for new tires used on helicopters are 4 percent larger than maximum aircraft tire dimensions. (In calculating maximum outside and shoulder diameters, rim...

A. An allowance on the maximum tire dimensions shown in tables must be made to compensate for the growth, stretch or deformation of the tire above the horizontal centerline during service. It is important that the following rules be observed by anyone using aircraft tire dimensions: The above drawing represents clearances required for an unloaded free-spinning grown tire or a loaded grown tire above the axle centerline. Note: Radii Ws/2 and WSG/2 are drawn through their respective shoulder points tangent to D0 and DG Radii below the shoulder points pass through the shoulder points and are...

Note: Radii WSG/2 is drawn through its respective shoulder point tangent to DG. Radii below the shoulder points pass through the shoulder points and are tangent to WG. A.
