02-7823-0110 - Tronair 02-7823C0110 – 5-Ton Tripod Jack

The Tronair 02-7823C0110 aircraft tripod jack is commonly used for landing gear servicing, wheel and brake maintenance, aircraft weighing, structural inspections, and shock strut repairs. Its 5-ton lifting capacity makes it well-suited for regional aircraft and lighter commercial platforms, such as the Fokker 27. Aircraft tripod jacks are also frequently used during gear swing checks and maintenance procedures that require the aircraft to remain elevated for extended periods.

OEM approval indicates that the aircraft jack has been evaluated and approved for use on specific aircraft platforms in accordance with the manufacturer's requirements. For the Fokker 27, this helps maintenance teams ensure compatibility with approved jacking points, load requirements, and maintenance procedures. Using OEM-approved aircraft tripod jacks can also help support regulatory compliance and reduce the risk of improper lifting practices.

The quick-rising center extension allows technicians to rapidly position the tripod jack near the aircraft jacking point before engaging the hydraulic system. This reduces setup time and minimizes manual pumping during initial lift operations. Faster positioning can improve workflow efficiency during scheduled inspections and high-volume maintenance events.

The threaded ram lock nut provides a positive mechanical lock to help prevent unintended lowering while the aircraft is elevated. This added safeguard reduces reliance on hydraulic pressure alone and improves safety during maintenance operations. Mechanical locking systems are especially valuable when technicians are working beneath or around the aircraft for long periods.

The spherical radius cup jack pad helps maintain proper alignment between the aircraft tripod jack and the aircraft’s approved lifting point. This design promotes more even load distribution while helping reduce stress on structural contact areas. Proper engagement between the jack pad and aircraft can also improve overall stability during lifting procedures.

The built-in pressure relief valve helps protect the aircraft tripod jack from overload conditions during lifting operations. If hydraulic pressure exceeds the designed limit, the relief valve activates to reduce excessive system pressure. This safety feature helps protect both maintenance personnel and aircraft structures from unsafe loading conditions.

The Tronair Blue powder-coat finish helps protect the aircraft tripod jack from corrosion, exposure to hydraulic fluid, moisture, and everyday wear in demanding aviation environments. A durable finish can extend the jack's service life and reduce maintenance requirements over time. This protective coating is particularly useful in hangar and ramp environments where equipment is exposed to harsh operating conditions.

Heavy-duty wheels make it easier to move and position the tripod jack around maintenance facilities, hangars, and ramps. Improved mobility helps reduce setup time and minimizes physical strain on technicians handling heavy ground support equipment. Easier maneuverability can also improve safety when repositioning aircraft jacks in confined maintenance areas.

CE certification confirms that the aircraft tripod jack complies with recognized European safety and quality standards for industrial equipment. This can help international operators standardize their ground support equipment across multiple facilities and regulatory environments. CE-marked aircraft jacks also demonstrate adherence to established engineering and safety requirements for aviation maintenance equipment.
