NOSE WHEEL ASSEMBLY, P/N 3-1481
1. The 3-1481 nose wheel is a split-type assembly made of cast aluminum. The tire size of
the wheel is 22 X 6.75-10. eight-ply rated. It is a nylon tubeless tire or 6.50-10, Type III,
six ply rated, nylon tubeless tire.
2. A tubeless tire inflation valve assembly (15), installed in the outer wheel half assembly
(120). A rubber grommet (40) installed on the valve stem (45) seals the valve stem in
the outer wheel half assembly.
3. The bearing cone (10), seal assemblies (5) and bearing cups (110, 160) hold the wheel
and tire assembly on the axle. The bearing cone and seal assemblies protect the
bearings from dirt and moisture.
Performance code 629 bearing parts are recommended for use in aircraft wheels. The
inspection code, which includes the performance code, is a number that follows the base
part number.
Example: Item 10, part number 19150-2_629 - The "base part number" is 19150. The
"inspection code" is 2_629.
NOTE: The inspection code is not shown on bearing parts that have a "2_024"
inspection or no inspection code.
The (-) after the base part number separates the base part number and the inspection
code. An asterisk (*) can appear in that location on the bearing cups and bearing cones.
The first digit of the inspection code can be a "2" or an "N". A "2" identifies the bearing
class for bearings that are sized in English units. An "N" identifies the bearing class for
bearings that are sized in metric units.
The second digit is assigned by Timken and has no effect on the fit, function, or quality
of the part. Because the second digit can randomly change, it is shown as:
The 3rd - 5th digits "629" show the performance code that identifies bearing cups and
cones that are manufactured to a higher standard.
4. Eight equally-spaced tie bolts (60), sixteen washers (55), and eight nuts (50) hold the
inner and outer wheel half assemblies together.
5. Each inner (70) and outer (120) wheel half assembly is statically balanced at the factory
to 1 ounce-inch (72 grams-centimeters). Balance weights (180, 130) are attached to the
wheel halves by screws (90, 140) and nuts (75, 125). Washers (80, 135) are to be
installed when a balance weight is not necessary.

6. A preformed packing (65) that is mounted on the mating surface of the inner wheel half
assembly (70), seals the inner and outer wheel half assemblies (70, 120).
7. An "L" is impression stamped on the flange of each wheel half to show the light side.
Assemble the wheel halves with the “L” on each wheel half, as near to 180 degrees
apart as possible.
8. Identification (95, 145) and instruction plates (105, 155, 150, 155) are attached with
rivets (90, 140) to the outer surfaces of each wheel half (115, 165).

(6) Scored Bearing Cone - Discard the bearing cone if it has turned sufficiently on
the axle to cause wear on the inner diameter of the bearing cone & seal
assembly.
(7) Cage Damage - Discard the bearing cone if the cage is dented, bent, or has
too much wear in the roller pockets. Also, discard the cone if it has a polished
or worn surface on the cage arm. Do not straighten a bent cage.
(8) If the bearing cone damaged in service and is replaced, examine the mating
bearing cup for damage. Replace a damaged bearing cup.
(9) Examine each bearing cup (110, 160) for movement in the wheel half
assemblies (70, 120). If a 0.002 inch (0,051 mm) feeler gauge can be put into
a clearance between the bearing cup and the bottom of the bearing bore,
remove the bearing cup to permit inspection and possible repair of the bearing
bore (refer to the REPAIR section).
(10) Immediately fill satisfactory bearing cone and cups with bearing grease
(Mobil Aviation Grease SHC 100, Mobil 28, or AeroShell grease 5). Wrap them
in oil-proof paper until they are installed in the wheel. When bearing parts are
examined or filled with grease, use the recommended procedures that follow:
(a) Keep a clean work area. Wrap clean bearing cone in new oil-proof paper
or plastic film to prevent the collection of contamination.

B. Keep the rubber parts in a cool (104 °F (40 °C) MAX.), dark, dry, no-dust area. Also
keep parts away from air flow, radiation, ozone (made by electric arcs, fluorescent
lamps, and other electrical equipment), and other contamination.
C. If wheel and tire assemblies are kept in storage for long periods of time, decrease
the inflation pressure to 25% (1/4) of usual operation pressure or 40 p.s.i. (2.8 bar),
whichever is less. Install the valve cap (20) and dry torque it to 5 - 10 pound-inches
(0,6 - 1,1 Nm).

1. PURPOSE:
This section gives illustrations and parts breakdown of all parts of the assembly(ies)
shown on the title page which can be disassembled, repaired or replaced, and
assembled.
Any modification, addition, or deletion in the parts list table is shown by an “R” at the left
of the item number.
A. Item Numbers:
The item number gives positive identification of the part throughout the manual by
making the part easy to find in the parts list. The item number for a part usually does
not change, except for alpha variants explained below.
NOTE: An "Alpha Variant" is an alphabetic letter which follows the item number, and
which "varies" (changes) each time the item number is repeated in the parts
list.
The letters "A" through "Z" (except "I" and "O") follow copies of item numbers when
necessary to show:
Alpha variant item numbers are not shown on the exploded view when the
appearance and location of the alpha variant item is the same as the basic item.
Items that are not illustrated are indicated by a dash (-) ahead of the item number in
the FIGURE & ITEM NUMBER column.
The Indenture System used in the parts list (NOMENCLATURE column) shows the
relationship of one part to another. For a given item, the number of indentures shown
the relationship of the item to the associated next higher assembly as follows:
(1) Subassemblies and detail parts that are used on assemblies that show the
pre- or post-Service Bulletin notation will not show the same notation if the EFF.
CODE column clearly shows their pre- or post-Service Bulletin status.
(2) End-item assemblies that are modified by a Service Bulletin without assignment
of a new part number (no production equivalent of the modified assembly) will
not show pre- or post-Service Bulletin notation.
G. Effectivity Code:
Reference Letters (A, B, C, etc.) are assigned in the EFF. CODE column to each
end-item. The reference letter of the applicable end item assembly is also shown for
each detail part and subassembly. If the EFF. CODE column is blank, the detail or
subassemblies can be used on all assemblies in this manual.
The UNITS PER ASSY column usually shows the total number of parts required per
assembly, subassembly, or sub-subassembly as applicable.
The letters “AR” identify parts that are “as required” (for bulk items).
The letters “RF” identify parts that are given for reference purposes.
3. VENDOR CODES:
NOTE: If a part has a vendor code number (V56878, for example) in the
“NOMENCLATURE” column of the ILLUSTRATED PARTS LIST, that part is FAA
approved as part of the Goodrich Quality Assurance System. Sources of these
parts, other than Goodrich, must have alternate FAA approval under Federal
Aviation Regulations (14 CFR Part 21)
