We believe that conventional skidtubes are under-designed for the types of landings most helicopters encounter. Conventional skidtubes are ill-equipped to face the critical loading conditions encountered when submitted to abusive high cycle landings on tarmac or uneven ground. Under these conditions, simple round tubes tend to puncture, dent and bend because they cannot maintain their shape. DART Aerospace’s revolutionary exclusive novel Skidtube shape takes the Skid Landing Gear to the next level. *Comes complete with saddles & full length Stainless Steel Wearplates & Wearpads. Pre-drilled for compatibility with OEM Cylindrical Float System p/n 412-050-013-117 Fwd/Mid (DART (Apical) p/n 20715.100) & 412-050-013-119 Aft (DART (Apical) p/n 20714.100). Also compatible with DART (Apical) Tri-Bag Floats. Compatible with D412-666 Gross weight handling kit.
