William from SoCal. Aircraft: PA28R-200 Rating: ★★★★★
“Product is quite durable and looks great. Easy to install.”
Charlie from SoCal. Aircraft: PA28-180 Rating: ★★★★★
“Very high quality construction. An upgrade in terms of airflow, a slight upgrade in terms of ease of changing the direction of the airflow. Very high cost of ownership, but what in aviation isn't? A very cool mod for putting the finishing touches on an already nice interior.”
Ben from Texas. Aircraft: PA28R-201T Rating: ★★★★★
“The new vents arrived on time and are as advertised. They were easy to install and function as well or better than the OEM vents. Cost is commensurate with quality.”
Marty from Minnesota . Aircraft: PA28R-200 Rating: ★★★★★
“They look really good and they fit great. The vents seem very durable, and they have just the right amount of friction and grip to adjust the air flow easily.”
Paul from Iowa . Aircraft: PA28R-200 Rating: ★★★★★
“Perfect fit. Seems almost indestructible.”
Anonymous Rating: ★★★★★
“Excellent product. Solves the interference problem. Well built-strong.”
Dan from Carrol, Ohio. Aircraft: PA28R-200 Rating: ★★★★★
“Well made product, easy to install. Important to use long enough fasteners so pressure on outer cover won’t prevent inter air deflection from moving”
We created over 100 prototypes to arrive at the optimal design.
Occupies almost 50% less space.
Your ankles will thank you.
They can take a beating, but we designed them to so they won't have to.
The 60’s called - they do NOT want their vent covers back
Polyethyl who?
Industrial Nylon is not like the cheap plastics you’re familiar with.
Nylon absorbs impact energy and stays in one piece
A tensile strength of 6,960 psi means you can lift an F-350 with a 1” square nylon rod
10x the impact strength of ABS
Nylon 12 absorbs very little moisture meaning it maintains its mechanical properties whether you’re in Florida or Nevada
UV Resistant and stable across a broad temperature range
| Nylon 12 | ABS | Polyethylene-LD | Test Method | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Tensile Strength (PSI) | 6,960 | 6,100 | 1,400 | ASTM D638 |
| Flexural Modulus (PSI) | 101,500 | 380,000 | 34,000 | ASTM D790 |
| Izod Notched Impact Strength (J/m2) | 3,600 | 370 | 1,000 | ASTM D256 |
| Heat Deflection Temp @ 66 PSI (°F) | 347 | 211 | 98 | ASTM D648 |
