Dear Editor,
Black Hawk aircraft vibration
chafes the tail rotor pylon between
the antenna cover and the right side
attaching receptacles on the fairing
assembly.
We remembered reading an article in
PS 442 that solved this chafing prob-
lem. It suggested applying a rubber strip,
antenna cover makes contact.
•
Trim the rubber strips to fit and
lay them aside.
•
Apply a thin coat of adhesive,
NSN 8040-00-097-6524, along
the chafed area of the pylon.
•
Firmly press the rubber strips onto the
adhesive.
•
Let the adhesive cure at room
temperature for 24 hours.
Because the rubber strip is only 1/16 inch
thick, it will
not
prevent you from latching
the cover to the pylon.
