Woodward 3211-068, Thrust Race Bearing - Tempest PMA
Tempest AG3211-068-PMA
The Tempest AG3211-068 (Woodward OEM 3211-068) is an FAA-PMA replacement thrust race bearing for Woodward applications.
- Provides a stable thrust surface to reduce friction and wear in the governor’s rotating and load carrying interfaces.
- Supports consistent governor response by maintaining proper internal alignment and minimizing drag that can affect RPM stability.
- Common overhaul replacement when bearings show wear, brinelling, or surface damage from contamination or inadequate lubrication.
Thrust races are critical to constant speed propeller governor performance because small changes in friction and end play can translate into noticeable RPM hunting or slow prop response.
Installation notes
These notes are general guidance only; always refer to the approved maintenance and overhaul manual for complete installation procedures.
- Keep bearing surfaces clean and protected. Do not install if there is any scoring, pitting, or handling damage.
- Confirm end play and assembly stack up per the approved Woodward overhaul data.
Applications and fitment
Used on Woodward propeller governors where OEM 3211-068 is specified. Confirm eligibility by matching the OEM part number and using the approved governor and aircraft installation data.
Tempest AG3211-068 is the direct replacement for OEM 3211-068. Match the OEM part number and confirm applicability by governor model and serial number in the approved maintenance data.
