Aircraft Spruce Canada assumes no responsibility or liability for any issue or problem which may arise from any repair, modification or other work done from this knowledge base. Any product eligibility information provided here is based on general application guides and we recommend always referring to your specific aircraft parts manual, the parts manufacturer or consulting with a qualified mechanic.

Q: Is there supposed to be a gap between the pitot tube and protector when it's closed?

Yes, that is part of normal operation. When its closed the gap will be small like the first image on this page. Then, when you are in motion and the wind hits the circular part near the hinge, it opens so the pitot system will operate (second image shows open). The opening and closing of the device happens inside of the nut area of the protector, not by the hinged part contacting the opening. It is difficult to explain but makes sense once you use the device.

Q: Is P/N 10-02000 the pitot protector made of stainless steel?

The Pitot Tube Protectors are made from aluminum.

Q: Diameter of hole opening or diameter of the tube you attach it to?

Fits pitot tube with 1/4" O.D.
