Sesame Technologies KPC3-625-35 Pitot Probe Cover – Cessna, Bombardier, Piper, & Hawker Aircraft

The KPC3-625-35 is designed for compatibility with a wide range of commercial, business, and military aircraft. Its secure fit and tested pull-off resistance ensure proper coverage for different pitot probe designs. Because it is constructed from DuPont™ Kevlar® with universal features like installation loops and NAS1756-approved warning streamers, it adapts well to diverse fleet requirements. This flexibility makes it an essential protective tool for operators managing mixed aircraft environments.

Pitot probes are vital to an aircraft’s pitot-static system, providing accurate airspeed data to the cockpit. During ground operations, these probes can easily be contaminated by dust, insects, water, or deicing fluids. Using a protective cover like the KPC3-625-35 helps prevent blockages that could compromise flight safety. Consistent use reduces maintenance downtime and ensures reliable flight performance.

DuPont™ Kevlar® is a high-strength, heat-resistant material that offers both durability and lightweight performance. In the KPC3-625-35, Kevlar ensures the cover will not melt, degrade, or scratch delicate probe surfaces. Its flame-retardant properties make it ideal for high-heat environments found on ramps and hangars. The result is long service life and dependable probe protection under demanding conditions.

Yes, this pitot probe cover incorporates a water-repellent lamina to shield probes from rain, snow, and other environmental contaminants. Unlike generic covers, it allows condensation and moisture to escape, reducing the risk of trapped water that could freeze at altitude. This dual protection ensures probes stay both clean and functional, supporting safe and accurate flight operations.

Every KPC3-625-35 pitot probe cover is manufactured in an ISO Class 8 cleanroom, which minimizes the introduction of particulate matter or contaminants. The cover itself is metal-free and low-particulate by design, further reducing the chance of FOD. This meticulous production process makes it especially suitable for operators who prioritize FOD prevention as part of their safety protocols.

The KPC3-625-35 is tested to operate continuously at temperatures up to 800°F (427°C) and has passed heat tests at 1,050°F (566°C). This makes it highly effective in environments where jet blast or high ramp temperatures are present. Unlike many other covers, it does not melt under these conditions, ensuring ongoing protection for sensitive pitot probes.

The KPC3-625-35 includes a NAS1756-approved warning streamer with clear part number identification, ensuring visibility and compliance with aviation standards. Installation and removal loops make handling straightforward, reducing the risk of improper installation. These features enhance both usability and safety, helping technicians avoid errors during preflight or post-maintenance inspections.

The KPC3-625-35 is manufactured under ISO 9001 and AS9100D quality assurance standards, ensuring rigorous oversight of production processes. It also meets CFR 25.853 flammability requirements, which are critical for aviation safety compliance. Operators who use Sesame Technologies covers can be confident that their protective equipment aligns with regulatory expectations.

Yes, the KPC3-625-35 is designed for versatility across both hangar and ramp settings. Its rugged Kevlar construction resists abrasion and chemical exposure, while its flame-retardant and water-repellent properties make it suitable for outdoor use. Whether an aircraft is stored indoors or parked on a busy ramp, this cover provides dependable probe protection.

Unlike many generic covers, Sesame Technologies designs its pitot probe covers with aerospace-specific materials like Kevlar, ensuring unmatched durability and performance. Each cover is factory-tested for pull-off resistance and manufactured in a controlled cleanroom environment. Features like moisture-venting lamina and non-melting construction go beyond basic coverage, offering advanced protection trusted by airlines, MROs, and OEMs.

The KPC3-625-35 is equipped with installation and removal loops to simplify handling, even when technicians are working in tight or low-light conditions. Its factory-set pull-off resistance ensures a snug fit that won’t loosen unintentionally, but still allows for efficient removal before flight. This user-friendly design minimizes the chance of errors during installation or preflight checks.
