Landing gear plays a critical role in ensuring a safe flight, absorbing impact forces during landing to protect the aircraft and passengers. Engineers must design systems that handle extreme loads while ensuring smooth takeoffs and landings. Failures can lead to costly damage and safety risks. To enhance reliability and longevity, self-lubricating, corrosion-resistant solutions replace traditional greased bearings, reducing maintenance, downtime, and overall weight. These innovations improve aircraft efficiency and passenger confidence while extending service life.
