Abstract:

The purpose of this study is to determine a method of coating the external surfaces of the Model 55 Hydraulic System, which will be compatible with the low emissivity values. Any surface coating which is applied to the system must be capable of withstanding these environmental and temperature conditions without peeling or flaking. Another area to be considered is the internal surfaces of the Hydraulic Tank Assy. Part 55-85301. Since this unit incorporates a number of moving pistons and O Ring Seals, it will, therefore, be necessary to provide a hard wearable surface on the internal cylinder walls of these units. Author
