Floats are produced in sizes from 550 - 1500lbs. Basic dimensions are mentioned on sketches on the right side column. Floats size 1500 straight and amphibians, are under development in cooperation with Harbor Sport Aviation. Semi-finished rigging is available upon request.
Floats are made from 6061T6 aluminium alloy sheets and designed for ultralight and LSA.
On the top and side skins of floats are used solid rivets, closed blind rivets on bottom. Floats are water sealed by polyurethan mastic.
Each float is separated into waterproofed sections (1200lbs
into 6, 1500lbs has 7sections), so if there is any leackage or damage, water will not penetrate
into other sections. On the front each float has fiberglass aerodynamical cover, which can be easily changed if damaged.
On the back side are installed water rudders that help to control aircraft movement on the water. Delivered set includes
2 floats with rudder installed on each of them. Cables and pulleys for
rudder control are not included.
