FluidTran's Commitment to Quality

  • FLIGHTMASTER® equipment is designed utilizing our in-house engineering expertise to be compatible with all commercial, military and private aircraft service ports and can be custom designed to meet any customer specific requirements.
  • FLIGHTMASTER® equipment uses translucent, high density polyethylene containers making fluid levels easily visible. Unlike metal fluid containers, the thick wall HDPE construction protects against interior moisture condensation to reduce fluid contamination (or eliminate moisture contamination when used in a closed containment configuration).
  • FLIGHTMASTER® equipment uses color-coded placards for easy fluid identification and integrates compatible seals and hoses based on fluid specifications.
  • FLIGHTMASTER® equipment includes machined aluminum parts that are anodized for added protection, which are sourced to US based and where possible, ISO certified third party vendors.
  • FLIGHTMASTER® equipment is hand assembled and tested prior to shipping to ensure each unit delivered is ready for immediate use.
