Tempest AG3053-042-PMA
The Tempest AG3053-042 (Woodward OEM 3053-042) is an FAA-PMA overhaul cover gasket for Woodward applications.
- Helps prevent external oil leakage at the cover interface when installed on properly prepared mating surfaces.
- Supports consistent internal assembly loading that helps preserve governor clearances and response characteristics.
- Commonly replaced during overhaul or whenever the cover is removed to reduce the likelihood of seepage on return to service.
This cover gasket is intended for aviation constant speed governor service where correct sealing contributes to reliability and clean operation.
Installation notes
Refer to your aircraft and governor maintenance manual for complete installation procedures and torque values.
- Do not reuse a compressed gasket. Replace with a new gasket whenever the cover joint is opened.
- Torque the cover hardware using the sequence and specification in the governor maintenance manual to avoid warping and uneven compression.
Applications and fitment
Confirm compatibility by matching OEM 3053-042 and reviewing approved maintenance data for the applicable Woodward governor model and configuration. Selecting the correct gasket part number is important because cover and sealing designs vary by model.
Tempest AG3053-042 is the direct replacement for OEM 3053-042. Verify applicability by governor model and serial number in approved data before ordering.
