SAE AIR5479B – Environmentally Compliant Processes for Landing Gear

This SAE Aerospace Information Report (AIR) describes the performance of plating??????s and coatings for landing gear that potentially provide environmental compliance benefits versus the current baseline processes. The hazardous systems addressed in this version of the document include cadmium plating chromated primers and high VOC (volatile organic compounds) topcoats.

The AIR applies to landing gear structures and mechanisms for all types of civil and military aircraft. The potential replacements apply to both Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) hardware and overhaul of in-service landing gears.
