Aircraft hydraulic/pneumatic fitting removal tool and associated technique of use for disengaging the locking collars of such fittings. In a particular embodiment, the fitting removal tool has a proper cylindrical housing obtaining a 1st and second end. Proximate to the second finish is an internal circumferential pocket.
Modem aircraft, especially commercial aircraft, often utilize high pressure fluid circuits typically referred to as pneumatic or hydraulic systems to manage and operate a wide range of aircraft systems. From flight control systems such as flaps and ailerons to engine systems such as thrust reversers and safety systems such as door latches, hydraulic/pneumatic systems have confirmed very trustworthy and usually superior to other systems. It is therefore not surprising that a modem commercial aircraft may have a lot of miles of hydraulic pathways.
Although a typical and usually desirable characteristic of hydraulic/pneumatic systems is that the piping may be versatile and or formed into a variety of shapes, substantially rigid fittings are generally utilized to connect the ends of piping to housings or other structures. Throughout operation, an aircraft might be topic to a number of vibration forces. In some situations these vibrations might be adequate to loosen fittings. To combat this loosening tendency, fittings have been created with locking systems intended to keep them in location and resist loosening more than time, regardless of whether due to vibration or other stresses.
