WICK (P/N 5169) - New Surplus

Part 5169 is a static discharge wick designed to dissipate precipitation static electricity from aircraft structures. Installed on wing trailing edges, this component provides a controlled discharge path that reduces radio and navigation interference caused by static buildup during flight. The wick channels accumulated charge safely away from avionics and communication systems.

Installation follows aircraft maintenance manual specifications and FAA AC 43.13-1B grounding and bonding guidance. Verify bonding continuity before returning the aircraft to service.
