REPLACEMENT TIP TANKS - for the deHavilland Beaver ------------------------------

In conjunction with our ongoing development of modifications to the deHavilland Beaver, we realized there was a need for replacement tip tanks. The existing tanks are no longer in production, difficult to locate and expensive. Sealand has developed a cost-effective replacement tip tank that improves the appearance of the aircraft. Because of the change in the shape of the wing tip, there is a decrease in stall speed and an increase in performance.

--

 The tank is the same shape as the airfoil, has the same fuel capacity as the original, and has a Hoerner-style composite tip.
--
 The construction is of 0.032 2024 T3 aluminum sheet riveted over hydro-formed 0.032 2024 T3 aluminum ribs and stiffeners.
--
 It is assembled using fuel tank sealant and fuel-resistant coating.
--
 It connects directly to the existing plumbing.
--
 The sump allows complete draining of accumulated water, even when the aircraft is on amphibious floats.
--
 Locking gas caps made of anodized aluminum are standard equipment.
--
 A nav/strobe light is an optional accessory.
--
 Sealand can supply a conversion plumbing package if your wings do not presently have tip tanks.
