Frangible Couplings & Flanges

Frangible Couplings & Flanges - Airport Lighting Equipment and Replacement Parts 

Frangible couplings for airport lighting fixtures

Frangible couplings are designed to provide a safer and more reliable solution for aircraft applications. These specialized components are engineered to break away cleanly upon impact, minimizing damage incurred in an accident. This technology helps protect the safety of passengers, crew members, and other personnel on board while also helping preserve the integrity of aircrafts’ structural components.

Applications include use for runway lighting, taxiway lighting and heliport flood lights

Common applications for frangible couplings include support for runway/taxiway lights, heliport flood lights, and masts. While these products can offer great advantages over traditional coupling solutions when used correctly; it is important that customers carefully review their product manual before ordering a frangible coupling to ensure they order the correct type with appropriate specifications according to their application needs.

Frangible couplings should only be used for approved applications.

Used for L-860/L-861/L-862 runway lights and taxiway edge lights.
