NBWBCT – Wheel & Brake Change Trailers

The NBWBCT trailer family enables safe, efficient aircraft wheel and brake change operations on the ramp, in hangars, and around airports. Designed by Newbow Aerospace, each trailer accommodates up to two wheels (including A380 size), a brake change dolly, an axle jack, and tooling. Fully enclosed or open-top models feature a low-gradient spring-assisted ramp door for one-person loading. Nitrogen-equipped variants integrate modular, weatherproof charging systems with hose reels and stowage.
