Key Considerations for Selecting a Reputable and Experienced Maintenance Provider

You want a highly experienced and certified aircraft cylinder specialist you can trust – one who will also provide you with the convenience that only a local service technician offer. You Want Moore…

Not Just Any Mechanic – A Specialist in Aircraft Cylinders

You shouldn’t trust just any aircraft mechanic with your aircraft cylinders. A very specific skill set is required for proper aircraft cylinder maintenance and overhaul. The Moore Performance Products aircraft service professionals, who specialize in aircraft cylinder overhauls and repairs and provide a variety of overhaul services nationwide and overseas for the aircraft and aerospace industries, are uniquely qualified with aircraft cylinder repair knowledge and experience.

Manufacturer specifications need to be followed for the sake of optimal engine performance as well as safety; but aside from that, how do you know when it is time for an aircraft cylinder to be overhauled? There are obvious signs that it is time to overhaul an aircraft cylinder, such as excessive oil consumption or a crack in the actual cylinder. However, there are also more subtle signs which necessitate professional testing by someone who specializes in aircraft cylinder overhauls. 

An experienced aircraft service provider can check the health of an aircraft cylinder by conducting certain tests including an oil analysis, which will provide a breakdown of its materials and the quantities of each found in the sample – helping to bring any abnormalities to light and pinpointing exactly what is wearing, how much and where. Then, a qualified aircraft service professional can help you determine how far you can let things go (or shouldn’t) before overhauling a cylinder – also taking into account engine type and engine hours, since what may be an acceptable compression limit for one engine may not be for another.

An FAA-Certified Aircraft Cylinder Overhaul Service

According to Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regulations, only an FAA-certified mechanic may overhaul aircraft cylinders and return an aircraft to service once FAA aircraft airworthiness standards are met. Regulation becomes more complicated for a complicated process such as aircraft cylinder maintenance, but for good reason. A properly maintained and well-serviced aircraft is a safer one. FAA regulations are put into place to ensure the optimal operation and airworthiness of aircraft components, including aircraft cylinders; and, as we all know, you are not permitted to fly without adhering to them.

Therefore, the importance of utilizing a knowledgeable, experienced and properly qualified FAA-certified repair station with a team of professionals who possess an innate knowledge of everything from the most general, to the most intricate details of FAA regulation compliance is imperative. Moore Performance Products IS that shop.

Proper Aircraft Cylinder Service and Maintenance Is Critical to Flight Safety

The cornerstone of flight safety, proper, timely aircraft maintenance can help prevent inefficient engine performance and engine unreliability, which may lead to excessive downtime, damage or worse. An effective aircraft preventive maintenance program can identify potential issues, such as deteriorating or broken parts early – before they become an issue. This is especially vital when it comes to aircraft cylinders – one of the hottest parts of an aircraft engine. An aircraft cylinder operating at higher than normal temperatures or with leaky exhaust ports can greatly increase the probability of cracks and other damage, very likely leading to some serious engine issues.

Aircraft cylinders are also constructed from different metals, each typically wearing at different rates; and when the aluminum head changes temperature, it contracts more quickly than the steel barrel. Over time, this can result in uneven wear patterns, cracks and other damage. However, with proper inspection, maintenance, machining and timely part replacement; the lifespan of aircraft cylinders can be increased and overall aircraft performance can be improved.
