CREEDMOOR, N.C. —Aircraft Belts, Inc. (ABI) is pleased to announce that it is now offering non-dynamic, complete OEM substitute restraint systems for Bell, Piper, BeechcraftBonanza, and Cessna, including Caravan aircraft. The ABI restraints are TSO-approved and considered functionally similar substitute equipment sufficient to replace the original equipment as minor repair/alteration.

“We are very happy to offer alternative, lower-cost choices for the customer and are excited about bringing additional standard catalog restraint choices to the market,” said Brian Harbaugh, Business Unit Director. “One of the things that separates ABI from the competition is our ability to serve the single aircraft customer, as well as the fleet provider and Major Air framers. We cover the complete spectrum. Our lead times of two to five days are unsurpassed, and when you call ABI, a highly trained professional is on the other end.”

Catalog restraints are available in black, tan, and gray. ABI offers very competitive pricing and immediate availability.

ABI offers uncompromising reliability and unparalleled safety and is dedicated to developing and manufacturing gold-standard products for its customers and delivering them time and time again. “If your aircraft is not a current catalog offering, don’t worry,” Harbaugh said.

In addition to standard catalog products, ABI works with each customer directly, to customize restraint systems for your specific needs and create an attractive system that’s right for them and their aircraft.

“Our unique part number scheme allows us to customize each aspect of the restraint system,” he said.

There are an infinite amount of restraint configuration, orientation, color, design, and style possibilities, which is why ABI prides itself in working closely with each customer as a restraint solution provider and partner. Not only can ABI custom-fit and tailor a unique aircraft seat belt solution to your needs, but ABI can also refurbish existing systems — all within a tight time frame. When lead times are critical, you can depend on ABI to turn-around your restraints on time and on budget every time!
