1. The P/N 3-1480-1 wheel assembly is the initial production wheel.
2. The P/N 3-1480-2 wheel assembly introduces a compound beadseat radius.
3. A tubeless-tire inflation valve assembly (30) is installed in the outer wheel half assembly
(155). The assembly is used to inflate the tubeless tire. A grommet (50) is installed on the
valve stem (45) to prevent tire pressure loss during usual operation.
4. Three or four thermal relief plugs (60) are installed in the wheel assembly.
(refer to Figure 1.) The plugs are equally spaced in the tubewell of the inner wheel half
assembly (100).
5. The thermal relief plug is made of a fusible metal that melts at a set temperature,
releasing the pressure in the tire. A preformed packing (75) installed on each plug
prevents tire pressure loss during usual operation.
Page 1
32-45-68 Apr 19/04
6. An overinflation plug (65), installed in the OPT 2 & 4 wheel assemblies (refer to Figure 1),
is installed 180 degrees from the inflation valve assembly (30). The overinflation plug
prevents overinflation in the tire by means of a disk which ruptures when overinflation
occurs. Therefore, deflating the tire. A preformed packing (75) installed on the
overinflation plug prevents tire pressure loss during usual operation. Two preformed
packings (70) are installed on the overinflation plug. Otherwise, dirt and moisture collects
on the ruptured disk.
7. Fourteen equally spaced tie bolts (90), twenty eight washers (85), and fourteen nuts (80)
hold the inner and outer wheel half assemblies together.
8. A preformed packing (95) that is mounted on the mating surface of the inner wheel half
assembly (100) prevents air from leaking through the inner and outer wheel half assembly
(100,155).
9. Seven Inserts (110) installed over torque lugs in the inner wheel half assembly (100),
engage the drive slots in the brake disks, which turn the disks as the wheel turns. The
inserts are attached to the torque lugs with screws (105) that thread into helical coil
inserts (115).
10. An alignment bracket (125) is attached to the inner wheel half assembly (100) with
screws (120) that thread in helical coil insert (130). The alignment bracket is used to
prevent misalignment of brake rotors while the wheel is being installed. Also, it is used as
a weight during static balancing. A second alignment bracket can be installed at the
operators option to rebalance the wheel half.
11. Each inner and outer wheel half assemblies (100, 155) are statically balanced to
6 ounce-inches (468 gram-centimeters) or lower. Balance weights (140, 185) are attached
to wheel halves with screws (145, 190) and nuts (135, 185) as necessary.
12. Three slimserts (170) are installed in the outer wheel half assembly (155), in 3 equally
spaced bosses in the hub area. This allows for a hub cap assembly to be installed
(hub cap assembly not supplied by Goodrich).
13. Bearing cups (160, 165) and bearing cones (15, 25) support the wheel and tire assembly
on the axle. Seal assemblies (10, 20) protect the bearings from dirt and moisture
contamination.
Performance code 629 bearing parts are recommended for use in aircraft wheels. The
inspection code, which includes the performance code, is a number that follows the base
part number. An example from the ILLUSTRATED PARTS LIST is:
Example: Item 25, part number L812148-2_629 The "base part number" is L812148.
The "inspection code" is 2_629.
Page 2
32-45-68 Apr 19/04
The first digit of the inspection code is a “2”. This identifies the bearing class for bearing
cones and bearing cups.
The second digit is assigned by Timken and has no effect on the fit, function, or quality of
the part. The second digit can randomly change on the bearing cone or bearing cup but
is always a zero (0) or dash (-) on the shipping box and an underscore on shipping
documents.
The 3rd - 5th digits “629” show the performance code that identifies bearing cones and
bearing cups that are manufactured to a higher standard.
14. Grease retainers (27, 28) that are installed behind each bearing cup (160, 165) to prevent
the flow of grease into the center of the hub area.

C. Eddy-Current Inspection:
NOTE: Eddy-current inspection of each beadseat area is recommended (by one of

the two procedures given in paragraph 3.C.(3).
(1) Make sure all contamination (dirt, grease, tire residue) is removed from
the area to be inspected. Before eddy-current inspection is done, remove the
paint in the area to be inspected if the paint is cracked, chipped or has visible
scratches.
(2) Eddy-current inspection with a contoured, differential-coil, beadseat probe:
(a) A wheel half or an "Electrical-Discharge-Machined (EDM) standard" can be

used as a guide to make a contoured, differential-coil, bead seat probe.
The same probe can be used for eddy-current inspection of bead seats of
the inner and outer wheel halves.
(b) An "EDM standard" is a section of a wheel half that has a certified

inspection notch that is machined into the bead seat area. This EDM
inspection notch is 0.030 inch (0,76 mm) deep by 0.004 - 0.005 inch (0,10
- 0,13 mm) wide by 0.060 inch (1,52 mm) long in the direction of the
circumference. The probe must be able to find this inspection notch.

(4) Dry torque the inside valve (15) in the valve stem (20). Dry torque the inside
valve to 1.5 - 3.0 pound-inches (0,2 - 0,3 Nm).
WARNING: OVERINFLATION OF THE TIRE CAN CAUSE PERSONAL INJURY

AND/OR PROPERTY DAMAGE. IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT ALL
MOUNTED TIRES BE INFLATED INSIDE A METAL CAGE TO AVOID
POSSIBLE INJURY TO PERSONNEL AND/OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.
N. Inflate the tire with dry nitrogen to the necessary pressure for service. Do a test for
leaks (refer to the TESTING AND FAULT ISOLATION section).
THAT HAVE DIFFERENT BRAND NAMES OR DIFFERENT
IDENTIFICATION NUMBERS. IF GREASES ARE MIXED AND/OR THE
INCORRECT GREASES ARE APPLIED, DECREASED BEARING LIFE CAN
OCCUR.
O. Install the valve cap (10) after the pressure test.

ASSEMBLY
P. Dry torque the valve cap (10) to 5 - 10 pound-inches (0,6 - 1,1 Nm).
Q. Install the outer bearing cone (35) and seal assembly (30) in the outer wheel half.
R. Pack the bearing cones (35, 45) with grease, Mobil Aviation Grease SHC 100,
product code 530063, Mobilith SHC 220, Mobilgrease 28 or Ronex MP.
S. Install the inner bearing cone (45) and seal assembly (40) in the inner wheel half.
NOTE: If the wheel and tire assembly is to be stored, refer to paragraph 6 of this
section.
5. WHEEL INSTALLATION (OPT 3 and 4 only):
A. Before installing bearing cones (15, 25) and seal assemblies (10, 20) in the bearing
cups (160, 165), pack with bearing grease. Wipe off excess bearing grease after
installation is complete.
B. Install outer seal (10) and outer bearing cone (15) on the aircraft axle.
C. Install the wheel assembly so the inner and outer grease retainers (27, 28) are not
pushed out of position. (Refer to Figure 707).

6. BEARING TIGHTENING AND AXLE NUT TORQUE:
A. Clean the axle threads and apply bearing grease (Mobil Aviation Grease SHC 100,
Mobilith SHC 220, Mobilgrease 28, or Ronex MP).
B. Install the axle nut washer and axle nut.
C. Turn the wheel in the direction the nut is tightened and torque the axle nut to 180
pound-feet (244 Nm) to correctly set the bearings.
D. Loosen the axle nut 1/2 turn.
E. Turn the wheel in the direction the nut is tightened and torque the axle nut to 120
pound-feet (162,7 Nm) in one continuous turn of the axle nut. This will prevent
incorrect reading of break-away torque, that occurs from stop-and-start turning of the
axle nut.

ASSEMBLY
F. If locking holes are not allowed, continue tightening the nut to the closest locking
hole.
G. Lock axle nut using standard locking methods.
7. STORAGE:
A. If the wheel is to be stored, install the bearing cones in the wheel assembly bearing
bore. Put the grease seal assemblies in place and put a paper dust cover over each
end of the hub and attach each one with tape.
B. Keep rubber parts in cool (104 °F (40 °C max.)), dark dry, no dust area. Also keep
parts away from air flow, radiation, ozone (made by electric arcs, fluorescent lamps,
and other electrical equipment), and other contamination.
NOTE: There is no limit on storage life of grommets (50), or preformed packings

(70, 75, 95), or grease seal assemblies (10, 20) that are not installed
(reference: SAE ARP 5316).
C. Wheel and tire assemblies that are stored for long periods of time should have the
inflation pressure decreased to 25% (1/4) of usual operation pressure or 40 psi (2,8
bar), whichever is less. Install a valve cap (35) and dry torque it to 5 - 10
pound-inches (0,6 - 1,1 Nm).

INTRODUCTION
1. PURPOSE:
This section identifies the parts of the assembly or assemblies in this manual that can be
disassembled, repaired or replaced, and assembled.
Any modification, addition, or deletion in the parts list table is shown by an “R” to the left
of the item number.
2. EXPLANATION AND USE OF THE SECTION:
A. Item Numbers:
An item number identifies a part in all sections of the manual. The item number for a
part usually does not change, but alpha variants of the item number can be added
(refer to paragraph 2.B.).
B. Alpha Variant Item Numbers:
NOTE: An "Alpha Variant" is an alphabetic letter which follows the item number, and
which "varies" (changes) each time the item number is repeated in the parts
list.
The letters "A" through "Z" (excluding "I" and "O") follow copies of item numbers
when necessary to show:
(1) Added items
(2) Items that are modified by a Service Bulletin
(3) Different configurations
(4) Alternate or Optional parts
(5) Improved parts that are not introduced by a Service Bulletin
Alpha variant letters are shown in figures to identify parts that have a different
appearance or location than the initial parts.
C. Items Not Illustrated:
Parts that are not illustrated have a dash (-) before the item number.

F. Service Bulletin Incorporation:
A service bulletin can cause assemblies, subassemblies, and detail parts to be

added, removed, modified, or replaced. The NOMENCLATURE (part name) column
shows "PRE SB XXX" (pre-Service Bulletin) when it is necessary to identify the initial
configuration. "POST-SB XXX" (post-Service Bulletin) is shown to identify assemblies,
subassemblies, or detail parts that are affected by the Service Bulletin.
PRE SB XXX or POST SB XXX are not shown when:
(1) The "EFF. CODE" column clearly shows the pre- or post-Service Bulletin
condition of the assemblies, subassemblies, or detail parts.
(2) The end-item assembly is modified by a Service Bulletin and has no change to
its part number (with no production equivalent of the modified assembly).
"PRE SB XXX" is not shown, and "POST SB XXX" is shown, when a subassembly or
detail part is modified by a Service Bulletin and has no change to its part number. An
alpha variant letter is also added to the item number
G. Effectivity Code:
Reference Letters (A, B, C, etc.) are assigned in the EFF. CODE column to each
end-item. The reference letter of the applicable end item assembly is also shown for
each detail part and subassembly. If the EFF. CODE column is blank, the detail or
subassemblies can be used on all assemblies in this manual.
H. Quantity For Each Assembly:
The UNITS FOR EACH ASSY column usually shows the full number of parts that are
necessary for each assembly, subassembly, or sub-subassembly.
The letters “AR” identify parts that are used “as required” (for bulk quantity parts such
as lockwire).
The letters “RF” identify parts that are given for reference purposes.
