Landing Gear Dolly

Hydraulic Dolly for Wheel and Brake Handling

The WTA500AP is a flexible, ergonomic landing gear dolly engineered for safe removal, transport, and installation of aircraft wheels and brake drums. Manufactured by AC Hydraulic, it supersedes the WTA500 model and incorporates four steerable castors for improved maneuverability. Designed for both wide- and narrow-body fleets except the B737 and A220, it provides controlled lifting, accurate alignment, and secure transport during maintenance operations. Skydrol-resistant coatings ensure long-term reliability in harsh hangar and ramp environments.
