DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
TASK 32-41-50-870-801-A01
1. General Characteristics
A. Wheel Material
(1) To optimize weight while providing required strength, the inner and outer wheel half
forgings are made from different alloys.
(2) The inboard wheel half is die forged from 2014-T6 aluminum alloy and offers higher
strength at elevated temperatures than does the 7050-T74 alloy.
(3) The outboard wheel half is die forged from 7050-T74 aluminum alloy to provide
greater strength for roll-on-rim performance than the 2014-T6 alloy.
B. Wheel Width: 54,9 cm (21.620 inches)
C. Wheel Diameter: 69,1 cm (27.190 inches)
TASK 32-41-50-870-802-A01
2. Description and Operation
A. The main landing-gear wheel is a split-type assembly that uses only tubeless tires. The
materials and processes chosen for the wheel halves were selected for high strength and
long service life. Torque bar holes are through-drilled and ventilated to minimize entrapped
fluid. A sulfuric acid anodize, epoxy primer, and polyurethane paint system ensure
protection from corrosion to maintain serviceability throughout airline usage. Wheel
service life is enhanced by compressive stress rolling of the beadseat and tubewell outside
diameters. In contrast, the tubewell inside diameter, hub, and web sections are shot-
peened to increase fatigue life.
B. Rework provisions exist in all areas of the wheel halves. Rework capability of the wheel
includes:
(1) Tie bolt and torque bar hole rework.
(2) Counter bore washer face rework.
(3) Multiple stages of bearing bore rework.
(4) Localized blending/rework in all other areas of the wheel halves.
C. The wheel is designed to optimize cooling and thermal compatibility with the brake. The
wheel utilizes a torque bar design. Heat shields reduce heat transfer to the wheel. Large
web windows are incorporated for improved convective cooling.
32-41-50
Page 1
Apr 19/04
D. Twenty-two Inconel tie bolts and steel nuts hold the inner and outer wheel half assemblies
together. A preformed packing at the wheel half mating surfaces seals the tubewell joint.
A phenolic spacer at the hub mating surfaces transmits axial loads and keeps out dirt and
moisture.
E. A retaining ring in each wheel half holds the two seals and the bearing cones in place when
the wheel is removed from the axle. The seals keep bearing grease in the hub and keep
dirt and moisture out. A grease retainer behind each bearing cup prevents the flow of
grease into the hub center area.
F. Tapered roller bearing cones and cups in the wheel hub hold the wheel on the machined
surfaces of an axle sleeve.
NOTE: Operators must use Timken Performance Code 629 aircraft wheel bearings.
Refer to Goodrich Service Letter 1633 for a discussion of properties, applications,
and identification of Timken Performance Code 629 aircraft wheel bearings.
G. A tubeless tire inflation valve assembly is installed in a threaded port in the web of the inner
wheel half. A grommet below the valve assembly seals the valve stem in the wheel half.
H. On the inboard wheel half, four thermal relief plugs are optimally located for accurate
response to beadseat and tubewell temperatures. The thermal relief plugs are a one-piece
design with a fusible eutectic core. The naval brass body ensures reliable bonding of the
eutectic material and accurate thermal representation of the surrounding wheel material.
The thermal relief plug eutectic core provides reliable release of tire pressure at elevated
temperatures.
I. An overinflation plug is installed in a threaded port in the web of the inner wheel half. This
plug is designed to rupture at 26 - 31 bar (375 - 450 psi) and release tire pressure. A
preformed packing below the head of the overinflation plug, seals this plug in the wheel
half. Two additional preformed packings, visible on the body of the overinflation plug,
prevent entry of dirt or other contaminants.
J. A bleeder plug and preformed packing are factory-installed in a threaded port in the web
of the inner wheel half in place of the customer-supplied Tire Pressure Indicating System
(TPIS) sensor holder. A preformed packing seals the bleeder plug or TPIS sensor holder
in the wheel half.
K. Eleven Inconel torque bars are installed in the inner wheel half assembly. These engage
slots in the brake rotors to turn the rotors with the wheel assembly.
L. A corrosion-resistant steel heat shield assembly is located in the inner wheel half and is
designed to reduce the transfer of heat from the brake assembly to the tubewell of the inner
wheel half.
M. Each wheel half assembly is individually balanced. The inner wheel half assembly is
balanced with the inflation valve, TPIS plug, and overinflation plug installed.

TASK 32-41-50-200-801-A01
1. Examination of Wheel Halves
NOTE: If the thermal relief plugs (155) have released the tire pressure, check the parts for
overheat damage (refer to paragraph 5) before doing any other check procedures.
A. Visually examine the wheel half assemblies (105, 145) for damage. Discard a wheel half
that shows signs of rolling contact with the runway. Visually examine wheel half surfaces
for nicks, dents, and scratches. Repair damaged areas (refer to paragraph 3 in the
REPAIR section).
B. Visually examine the wheel half assemblies for corrosion. Corrosion is most likely to occur
in the tubewell and the bead seat areas (where the tire touches the wheel), and in holes
or other areas where moisture and contamination can collect. Repair all corroded areas
(refer to paragraph 3 in the REPAIR section).
WARNING: DO NOT LET PENETRANT FLUID (ASTM E1417 TYPE I) TOUCH THE SKIN,
EYES, OR RESPIRATORY TRACT. SKIN AND EYE PROTECTION IS
NECESSARY. GOOD GENERAL AIR FLOW USUALLY GIVES SUFFICIENT
VENTILATION.
C. Eddy current or penetrant (ASTM E1417 Type I) examine the wheel half assemblies for
cracks. Refer to Figure 5007 and paragraph 6 of this section for specified examination
areas and recommended examination schedules. At each tire change, eddy current
examine the beadseat of each wheel half (refer to Figure 5001). Reject cracked wheel
halves.
NOTE: If a contoured, differential-coil, beadseat probe is used, the same probe can be
used for eddy current examination of bead seats of the inner and outer wheel

the following procedures to determine the level of damage.
CAUTION: DO NOT LET CONVERSION COATING (MIL-C-5541) TOUCH THE

PROTECTION IS NECESSARY. GOOD GENERAL AIRFLOW USUALLY
(1) Level one damage – small dents and dings
(a) If damage does not lift material more than 6,4 mm (0.25 inch), blend any sharp
edges to the adjacent chin surface (refer to Figure 6008B).
NOTE: A "blend" repair is done with hand tools to remove damaged material. The
repair is done with a very slow and continuous change in contour from the
repaired surface to the adjacent initial surface.
(b) Apply conversion coating, primer, and paint to the repaired areas (refer to
paragraphs 5 and 7).
(2) Level two damage – cracks and missing chin material
(a) Repair damage of less than 127 mm (5.0 inches) in length by blending and
smoothing the damaged area (refer to Figure 6008B).
NOTE: This repair can occur only once on the wheel half.
(b) Apply conversion coating, primer, and paint to the repaired areas (refer to
paragraphs 5 and 7).
(3) Level three damage – much damage to wheel chin material
Damage that is more than 127,0 mm (5.00 inches) in length requires removal of the
entire wheel chin and replacement with a removable stainless chin ring (900).
(a) Remove the thin part of the chin from the damaged inner wheel half (refer to Figure
6008B). Blend any remaining sharp edges.
NOTE: Do not machine the torque bar seat area.
(b) Reidentify the repaired inner wheel half by obliterating and overstamping the
existing part number "10-1545-1" to make it read "10-1545-2." Impression stamp in
3,2 mm
(1/8 inch) high numbers.
(c) Apply conversion coating, primer, and paint to the repaired and impression
stamped areas (refer to paragraphs 5 and 7).
(d) Refer to the ASSEMBLY section for chin ring (900) installation procedure.

STORAGE (INCLUDING TRANSPORTATION)
TASK 32-41-50-550-801-A01
1. Wheels Put Into Storage with Tires Installed
A. The length of time that you can store a wheel assembly is limited by the storage life of its
rubber and polymer components. The life of these parts can be decreased by exposure to
sunlight, ozone, extreme temperatures, or contamination by fluids and foreign particles.
B. Put the wheel / tire assembly into storage in a clean, cool and dry location, out of direct
sunlight at a temperature range of 0 - 24 °C (32 - 75 °F). Temperatures as high as 52 °C
(125 °F) are permitted for a short time, but some damage to rubber or polymer parts is
possible.
C. Recommended storage pressure for tires is 2,7 bar (40 psi).
TASK 32-41-50-550-802-A01
2. Wheels Put Into Storage Without Tires Installed
Put the wheel assembly into storage without the preformed packing (100) installed between
the two wheel halves.
TASK 32-41-50-550-803-A01
3. Shelf-Life Limits and Storage Recommendations for Elastomeric Seals
Put elastomeric seals and seal assemblies into storage in a dark and dry area that is usually
not more than 38 °C (100 °F). Keep these parts in their initial packaging. Also, keep these parts
away from air flow, radiation, ozone, and contamination.
NOTE: Refer to Goodrich Service Letter No.1854 for limits on storage life of grommets,
performed packings, grease seals, and grease retainers that are not installed
(reference SAE ARP5316).
TASK 32-41-50-550-804-A01
4. Removal from Storage
A. Remove the wheel assembly from storage just before it is to be installed on the aircraft.
Use a first-in, first-out storage procedure.
B. Before a wheel assembly is installed on the aircraft, or during a scheduled inspection of

the stored assemblies, do a visual inspection of the assembly.

INTRODUCTION TO ILLUSTRATED PARTS LIST
1. Purpose
WARNING: GOODRICH-MESSIER, INC. OR MESSIER-GOODRICH, S.A. ASSUME NO

LIABILITY WHATSOVER, WHETHER CONTRACTUAL, WARRANTY, TORT
OR OTHERWISE, FOR FEDERAL AVIATION ADMINISTRATION (FAA)
SANCTIONS, PRODUCT MALFUNCTIONS, PROPERTY DAMAGE,
PERSONAL INJURIES, OR SIMILAR INCIDENTS THAT OCCUR AFTER
INSTALLATION OF PARTS THAT ARE NOT APPROVED BY GOODRICH-
MESSIER, INC. OR MESSIER-GOODRICH, S.A., OR INSTALLATION OF
PARTS WITH CHANGES THAT ARE NOT APPROVED BY GOODRICH-
MESSIER, INC OR MESSIER-GOODRICH, S.A. MANUALS OR OTHER
WRITTEN PROCEDURES ISSUED BY GOODRICH-MESSIER, INC. OR
MESSIER-GOODRICH, S.A.
A. This section gives illustrations and a parts breakdown for all parts of the assembly or
assemblies shown on the title page of this manual.
B. A modification, addition, or deletion of a line in the parts list is shown by an "R" at the
beginning of the line.
2. Explanation and Use of the Section
A. Item Numbers
The item number identifies a part in the parts list and in all other sections of the manual.
The item number for a part does not change, but alpha variants are used as follows.
NOTE: A figure number is shown before an item number, to help find the part, only if more
than one figure number is used in the Illustrated Parts List.
B. Alpha Variant Item Numbers
The letter “A” follows item numbers to identify parts that are used on the initial end-item
assembly. Alpha variants “B” through “Z” (but not I and O) follow duplicate item numbers
(and replace the letter “A”) when it is necessary to show:
• Added items
• Items modified by a Service Bulletin
• Configuration differences
• Alternate or Optional parts
• Product improvement parts (not introduced by a Service Bulletin)
Alpha variant item numbers are not shown on the exploded view when the appearance and
location of each alpha variant item is the same as the initial item.

Apr 19/04
C. Items Not Illustrated
Items that are not illustrated are identified by a dash (-) before the item number in the FIG-
ITEM column.
D. Indentation to Show the Order of Assembly
On each IPL figure, the top assembly, detail parts, attaching parts, subassembly, and
detail parts relationships are indicated by indenture and prefix dots. Top assemblies have
no indenture or dot. Detail parts and subassemblies are indented one space and have one
prefix dot. Detail parts of subassemblies are listed immediately after the attaching parts for
the subassembly. They are indented one additional space and have two prefix dots.
Further parts breakdowns follow this pattern.
E. Parts Replacement Data
Parts can be interchanged only as permitted by the terms that follow. These terms are
given when necessary in the NOMENCLATURE column of the parts list.

F. Service Bulletins That are Included
A Service Bulletin can cause assemblies, subassemblies, and detail parts to be added,
removed, modified, or replaced.The DESCRIPTION column of the detailed parts list shows
"PRE SB XXX" (pre-Service Bulletin) when it is necessary to identify the initial
configuration. "POST SB XXX" (post-Service Bulletin) is shown to identify assemblies,
subassemblies, or detail parts that are affected by the Service Bulletin.
"PRE SB XXX" or "POST SB XXX" are not shown when:
• The "EFF CODE" column clearly shows the "pre" or "post" Service Bulletin condition
of the assemblies or subassemblies.
• The end-item assembly is modified by a Service Bulletin and has no change to its part
number (with no production equivalent of the modified assembly).
"PRE SB XXX" is not shown, and "POST SB XXX" is shown, when a subassembly or detail
part is modified by a Service Bulletin and has no change to its part number. An alpha
variant letter is also added to the item number.
G. Effectivity Code
If more than one end-item assembly is shown in the parts list, a reference letter (A,B,C,
etc.) is given in the EFF. CODE column for each end-item assembly. This reference letter
is also used in the EFF. CODE column for each detail part or subassembly that can be
used only in the end-item assembly with the same reference letter. Detail parts and
subassemblies can be used in all end-item assemblies if no reference letter is shown.
H. Quantity For Each Assembly
The UNITS PER ASSY column usually shows the total number of parts that are required
for each assembly, subassembly, or sub-subassembly. The letters “AR” identify parts that
are used “as required” parts (for bulk quantity parts such as lockwire). The letters “REF”
identify parts that are given only for reference purposes.
