The 9C1017G02 Variable Center of Gravity (CG) Removal and Installation (R/I) Fixture is a heavy-duty, highly specialized piece of aviation maintenance tooling. Designed to facilitate the safe and efficient handling of asymmetrical or awkward aircraft components, this fixture allows maintenance crews to dynamically adjust the center of gravity during critical R/I procedures and assembly operations.
Precision Handling & Uncompromising Safety
Handling heavy aircraft components requires extreme precision to prevent damage to the airframe and ensure personnel safety. The 9C1017G02 fixture boasts a robust maximum load capacity of 2,500 lbs (1,134 kg), making it ideal for substantial structural or mechanical components. Its variable CG mechanism ensures that loads remain perfectly balanced during lifting, positioning, and mating processes.
Key Advantages for MRO Operations:
Variable CG Adjustment: Allows mechanics to easily dial in the exact center of gravity, preventing component swinging, binding, or structural stress during installation.
Heavy-Duty Capacity: Safely supports and maneuvers aircraft components weighing up to 2,500 lbs, significantly expanding its utility in the hangar.
Enhanced Operational Efficiency: Streamlines complex removal and installation tasks, reducing labor requirements and minimizing Aircraft on Ground (AOG) time.
