SUBJECT: Landing Gear - Wheels and Brakes - Introduction of a New Paint Primer
1. Effectivity
2. Reference
3. Purpose
To tell operators that wheel assemblies and brake assemblies made after November 2006
will have a new primer. The new primer is chromate-free and permits Goodrich to meet
the revised permissible exposure limit (PEL) for hexavalent chromium enforced by the
Federal Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). This regulation serves as
the minimum standard for general industry within the United States, including Goodrich
Aircraft Wheels and Brakes, Troy manufacturing facility and service centers. The current
chromated primers and application procedures do not comply with the revised PEL
requirement.
Application of the chromate-free primer does not impact the part numbers.
4. Reason
The new chromate-free primer reduces environmental impact. The benefits of the new
primer include:
5. Procedure
A. Apply one layer of primer. Refer to the instructions from the manufacturer.
