Product Description
The Tanis Aircraft Engine Preserving Kit is designed to help aircraft owners and operators protect their engines during periods of inactivity. When an aircraft engine is not flown for more than 30 days, it is essential to take preventive measures to avoid potential damage. The Tanis Preserving Kit makes this process simpler and more convenient by providing all the necessary components based on engine manufacturers’ recommendations.
Available in two options for 4 and 6 cylinder engines, each kit includes high-quality materials and detailed instructions to ensure thorough preservation. The kits use MIL-C-6529C Type I concentrate, which is mixed with mineral oil (MIL-L-6082C (SAE J1966), Grade 1100, mineral aircraft engine oil) to produce an oil that conforms to MIL-C-6529C Type II. Please note that the mineral oil must be acquired separately by the customer.
