50-300010-141 – Goodrich 8.5 x 10 Tubeless 10-Ply Aircraft Tire

Available now on the Airparts.aero Marketplace.

The Goodrich 50-300010-141 is a high-performance, tubeless main landing gear tire engineered specifically for the rigorous operational demands of high-performance turboprop and light jet aircraft. As a primary interface between the airframe and the runway, this tire is designed to manage extreme kinetic energy during landing rollouts while providing superior ground handling and stability during high-speed taxi operations. Constructed with a focus on carcass integrity and thermal dissipation, the 50-300010-141 ensures consistent performance across a wide range of environmental conditions and pavement types.

This tire utilizes an advanced 10-ply rating architecture, which provides the necessary load-bearing capacity required for the MTOW (Maximum Takeoff Weight) of modern utility and corporate aircraft. The tubeless design significantly reduces the overall weight of the wheel assembly and simplifies maintenance by eliminating tube-related failures such as chafing or "cold-flow" issues. For operators, the 50-300010-141 represents a critical investment in safety and dispatch reliability, offering an optimized balance of wear resistance and impact absorption.

Key Features

• High-Tenacity Nylon Carcass: Constructed with premium nylon cords to provide exceptional dimensional stability and resistance to bruising and impact damage.

• Specialized Rubber Compound: Features a proprietary tread compound designed for high-abrasion resistance and optimized wet-weather traction.

• Tubeless Configuration: Reduces assembly weight and lowers internal operating temperatures by eliminating the friction generated between a tube and the tire casing.

• Advanced Bead Design: Engineered for a precise, airtight fit on the wheel rim, ensuring pressure retention and preventing tire slippage during heavy braking.

• Optimized Tread Pattern: Designed with circumferential grooves to facilitate effective water evacuation, reducing the risk of hydroplaning on contaminated runways.

Applications

The 50-300010-141 is primarily utilized as a Main Landing Gear (MLG) tire. Its role is to provide the primary support for the aircraft's weight during ground operations, absorb the vertical energy of landing (sink rate), and provide the necessary friction for braking and directional control during the landing roll and taxi.

Why Choose 50-300010-141?

Choosing the Goodrich 50-300010-141 ensures that your aircraft maintains its original type-certified performance standards. Non-certified or lower-ply-rated tires can lead to premature carcass failure, bead unseating, or catastrophic blowouts during high-energy braking events. With Goodrich’s decades of experience in aviation elastomer technology, this tire provides the structural margin required for safe operations in demanding short-field or high-cycle environments.

The engineering of the Goodrich 50-300010-141 centers on the management of viscoelastic deformation and heat generation. During the landing phase, the tire undergoes rapid deflection, which generates internal heat through hysteresis. The 10-ply nylon carcass is specifically designed to minimize this heat buildup while maintaining structural rigidity under high-load factors. The "8.5 x 10" designation refers to the section width and rim diameter, but the internal architecture is where the science lies: the carcass uses a biased-ply construction where the nylon cords are laid at opposing acute angles to the direction of rotation. This creates a robust, anisotropic structure that excels at absorbing side-loads and shear forces encountered during crosswind landings. Furthermore, the tubeless inner liner is composed of a low-permeability halobutyl rubber, ensuring long-term inflation stability and preventing the oxidative degradation of the internal nylon plies.

Note: This is a flight-critical component. Tire pressure must be checked and maintained in accordance with the Aircraft Maintenance Manual (AMM). Installation, mounting, and balancing must be performed by a certified A&P mechanic using appropriate bead-seating equipment and calibrated pressure gauges. Always inspect tires for flat spots, tread depth limits, and weather-checking/cracking before flight.
