Product Description

The vc-5 is a metal valve cap for aircraft wheel and service ports. This threaded cap protects Schrader-type valve stems and sealing surfaces from dirt, moisture, and contamination during storage and operation. Installed by threading onto the valve stem, it maintains pressure retention at the cap-to-stem interface on tire service valves and maintenance access ports.

Commonly used on general aviation wheel assemblies and pneumatic system service points. Verify thread compatibility with your specific valve stem and follow torque specifications in the aircraft maintenance manual during installation.

Please note: Product descriptions are provided for informational purposes. Always refer to your aircraft's Illustrated Parts Catalog (IPC) to verify part compatibility and specifications.
