As the leader in firewall forward STC products for Cessna™ single aircraft Air Plains is all too familiar with customers "airbox woes".  Until now customers had to choose between temporary repairing their airbox or purchasing a new airbox from Cessna™.  The problem is that both options can be very expensive, and the final product is still an airbox susceptible to several common issues.

Air Plains now offers customers a third option; our FAA-PMA approved APS0750144-33 airbox provides MORE DURABILIY and MORE VALUE over previous options for 180, 182, and 188 owners. 

Adhesive Bonded Top Skin

Our airbox features structural adhesive reinforcement in the highest stress areas, this distributes the stress between the skins and prevents the common cracking in the riveted areas. Also, it reduces the collar separation issues seen all too often.

321 Stainless Steel

The upper airbox skin is fabricated out of 321 stainless steel to provide fatigue strength. Also, it is bonded with structural adhesive to the collar and the sides of the airbox.

Crimped Duct with Adhesive

Our airbox features structural adhesive reinforcement in the highest stress areas, this distributes the stress between the skins and prevents the common cracking and collar separation issues seen all too often.​ The duct crimp to the airbox is improved significantly.

Increased Bearing Area

The shaft is made from corrosion resistant steel and the troublesome needle bearing is replaced by a more robust oil-impregnated bronze bushing which eliminates the risk of needle ingestion by the engine. The bearing area on the bronze bushing is increase to distribute the forces.

One Piece Billet Machined Arm

This airbox also features Air Plains improved carburetor heat arm which is manufactured from hardened steel and has a larger bearing area for the clamp; this significantly reduces the wear from the cable clamp.

 

It is important that your carburetor airbox rigging is set correctly. There should be a cushion gap of 1/16 of an inch between the cable knob and panel stop. If the gap is too small the valve assembly will rattle due to vibration and air loads.
