Adaptors for Ground Based Testing
Aerospace Testing Adaptors
Everyday, engineers are confronted with a test where the relevant adaptor required to connect the testing apparatus to the engine is not available, so the problem may be resolved by making the connection with a multitude of adaptors, and in many cases expensive flight parts, multiplying the possibility of galling the thread on the engine, and having an expensive adaptation or too many adaptors and an unacceptable amount of leak points..
Custom Fittings are highly regarded as a supplier to the Aerospace Industry, for 316 Stainless steel ground based adaptors for testing applications, whether from our stock range or manufactured to our clients specifications.

"I have witnessed expensive flight parts being used unnecessarily for testing. An adaptor for testing needs to be every bit identical and conform to the Aerospace standards. This was the challenge for Custom Fittings, to manufacture affordable ‘not for flight’ aerospace adaptors that are suitable for testing. It has been over 16 years since our first Aerospace order, and over the years we have amassed hundreds of standards and thousands of drawings, and now with some of the most reputable companies in the Aerospace industry having dedicated stocks of our aerospace testing adaptors."
