PPG announced it is offering a longer three-year warranty on rebuilt windshields for Beechcraft King Air models due to demonstrating excellent field performance for operators. The three-year warranty, which was previously 24 months, applies to PPG-rebuilt windshields purchased on or after June 1, 2016.
The company says, “As the manufacturer of the certified original-equipment windshields for the
King Air and spares for both the King Air and 1900 models, PPG rebuilds parts to the latest Beechcraft-approved design configuration. Aircraft operators have lower-cost alternatives to buying new spares without compromising performance or quality, and now PPG supports that with an even longer warranty.”
The proven performance of the PPG-rebuilt windshields and OEM parts is attributed to proprietary robust heating systems and moisture seals that protect the windshields from environmental degradation.
PPG is certified by the Federal Aviation Administration to rebuild windshields and uses the same materials and processes it does for new parts. Rebuilt windshields for King Air airplanes are supplied with SURFACE SEAL® hydrophobic coating, as are new and spare windshields. Parts are manufactured and rebuilt at PPG’s Huntsville, Alabama, factory, where it operates an FAA-certified Repair Station.
For more information and to purchase PPG-rebuilt windshields for the King Air, operators should contact the PPG sales team member at their nearest application support center listed at www.ppgaerospace.com. Operators also can exchange a windshield for an already-rebuilt PPG windshield.
