NEW Composite Tail Rotor Blades:
For the Bell 206A & 206B Series JetRanger Helicopter
Composite Tail Rotor Blades for Bell 206 JetRangers Fitted with New Bearings:
The AMT-206-1 composite tail rotor blade is a direct replacement for Bell 206A and 206B series helicopter tail rotor blades. Now fitted with a new style of feathering bearings manufactured by KAMATICS. These bearings provide a longer life expectancy, with a patented lining that provides lighter pedal loads and a higher level of chemical resistance, compared to that of the standard fabric teflon lined bearings.
The AMT-206-1 tail rotor blade has a non-symmetrical airfoil section and incorporates a swept tip. The T/R Blade is primarily fabricate from uni-directional Graphite (carbon fibre) and Aramid (Kevlar™) continuous fibres suspended in an epoxy matrix and is fitted with a nickel abrasion strip on the leading edge. The abrasion strip is bonded on using a urethane adhesive.
The AMT-206-1 composite tail rotor blades have a 30% cost advantage, twice the lifespan, higher strength and thrust, and a substantial noise reduction, making them safer and ideal for helicopter operators flying in noise-sensitive areas like national parks and built-up areas.
AMT-206-1 T/R Blade Features:
- Fitted with new style feathering bearings manufactured by KAMATICS
- 5,000-hour time life, twice the life of the standard OEM blade
- 30% lower hourly operating costs compared to OEM blades
- Higher margin of safety due to increased strength
- Corrosion resistant and impervious to saltwater
- Replaceable bearings and abrasion strips
- Significant noise reduction, 68% reduction over OEM Blades
- Improved ground clearance
- Tested for over 51 million cycles
