McCauley A-3150-12 / A-20158-1, SS Unfeathering Split Roll Pin - Tempest PMA
Tempest AGA-3150-12-PMA
The Tempest AGA-3150-12 (McCauley OEM A-3150-12 / A-20158-1) is an FAA-PMA replacement ss unfeathering split roll pin for McCauley applications.
- Provides positive retention for unfeathering linkage hardware by using a spring-pin design that resists loosening in service.
- Supports reliable unfeather function by keeping pivot and pin joints properly located, reducing the risk of inconsistent engagement.
- Typically replaced during overhaul because roll pins can lose tension, deform, or show corrosion and wear from repeated disassembly.
Retention hardware may look simple, but it is critical to consistent unfeather operation in many aircraft governor installations.
Installation notes
These notes are general guidance only; always refer to the approved maintenance and overhaul manual for complete installation procedures.
- Use the approved pin installation method to avoid deforming the pin or damaging the mating bore.
- Inspect mating holes and the retained pin for wear that could reduce retention and create play in the linkage.
