FSC 2620: Tires and Tubes, Pneumatic, Aircraft
Federal Supply Class (FSC) 2620 covers pneumatic tires and tubes for aircraft. These flight-safety items are stocked under NSN and built to airworthiness standards.
Aircraft tires support the aircraft on the ground and withstand the high loads and heat of landing and takeoff. Reliable tires are essential to safe runway and carrier operations.
Common types include bias-ply and radial aircraft tires and matching tubes. Tires are constructed from specialized rubber compounds and high-strength reinforcing plies rated for aircraft speeds and loads.
