Fitting and Line Kit
MATCO mfg produces a superior 5″ inch wheel and brake assembly for use with aircraft requiring less than 1200 lbs per wheel. This model uses .75 inch bearings
DIMENSIONS – The WE51L.75 is a 5″ inch wheel with 4.95 inch width with an additional 1.10 inch caliper spacing. Bearing spacing is 2.83 inches and axle spacing is 1.39 inches. The total weight of this wheel and brake assembly is 6.5 pounds. The bearing axle diameter is .75 inches.
FEATURES – The WE51L.75 is cast utilizing a 535.2 aluminum alloy for superior strength and corrosion resistance. This alloy provides a light weight wheel and affords many years of efficient performance. The WE51L has a .75 bearing which is rigorously tested and designed to resist bearing fatigue providing a long bearing life. This wheel features our ‘E’ series disc and single piston brake assembly. All ‘E’ series wheels utilize an external caliper for easy maintenance. Brake shoe removal can be accomplished by simply removing two bolts to release the caliper. Al-Ni-Brz bushings are used on ‘E’ series wheels to ensure smooth caliper travel.
Machining on this wheel optimizes its effectiveness when using a variety of manufacturer’s tires including Goodyear, McCreary, Michelin, and others. The WE51L can be used in conjunction with a bolt on axle, the A19 axle, for ease of installation.
AXLE –The WHLAXLE19 axle is a style axle made of 4140 HT steel alloy. This axle has a 0.75 inch diameter bearing surface. The axle has .898 inch spacing between the four 0.194 inch bolt holes on a 1.27 inch reference circle. This axle assembly comes with the AN8 axle nut.
MATCO mfg axles that are aluminum are black anodized and steel axles are yellow zinc.
TIRE/TUBE – Any 500X5 tire and tube combination can be used with this tire. MATCO mfg recommends the Michelin Condor 500X5 6 ply.
