MLG Tension Strut – RH
The MLG Tension Strut – RH is a vital structural component of the F-16’s Main Landing Gear (MLG) system, specifically installed on the aircraft’s right-hand side. Engineered from ultra-durable, corrosion-resistant alloy steel, this strut is designed to withstand extreme axial and lateral forces during taxiing, takeoff, and landing. Its sleek, cylindrical design features precision-forged ends that connect to the shock absorber and torque arm, enabling smooth retraction and extension of the landing gear assembly.
It incorporates internal bushings and high-load spherical bearings to ensure reduced wear during high-frequency landings. The strut’s load-transmitting capability helps manage the aircraft’s dynamic stress by distributing impact forces from the wheels into the fuselage structure. The surface is coated with aerospace-grade anti-friction plating for long-term durability and smoother mechanical articulation. Each unit is tested to meet exacting tolerances that align with the aircraft’s flight safety requirements.
The MLG Tension Strut – RH is positioned as a support beam between the MLG trunnion and the wheel assembly. It plays a pivotal role in absorbing landing energy, keeping the gear geometry intact, and preventing deformation during high-speed runway contact. Its function is essential for ensuring safe recovery and launch cycles, especially during carrier or rough-field operations in hostile environments.
Trusted by Tactical Supply Pakistan, this part is compliant with all F-16 OEM and depot-level maintenance protocols. It’s a critical spare for extending the life of aging fleets and maintaining structural integrity under operational stress.
What causes premature wear in an MLG tension strut?
Excessive landing impact, irregular gear alignment, or lack of lubrication can accelerate wear in bushings or bearings within the tension strut assembly.
