KESTREL ENGINEERING LIMITED

Kestrel Engineering Limited is a specialist aerospace engineering firm dedicated to improving the safety and efficiency of aircraft tyre handling. Their core offering is a range of pressure‑reduction and deflation solutions that lower wheel‑assembly pressure for storage or air‑freight, while dramatically cutting the noise generated during the process.

The company’s flagship products are the Model 1 and Model 2 wheel‑valve adapters, each fitted with a bronze silencer to ensure quiet operation. Model 1 serves the large‑bore valves found on aircraft such as the Airbus A330‑A380 family and Boeing 747, 767, 777 and 787 Dreamliner, whereas Model 2 caters to standard‑bore valves on smaller types including the Airbus A320 series, Boeing 737 Classic and NG, Embraer E‑170/190, Bombardier CSeries, CRJ, and ATR 42/72/600 families. These adapters can be screwed onto any Schrader wheel valve worldwide, providing a reliable, low‑noise deflation method for airlines, maintenance organisations and ground‑handling providers.

By combining a proven valve‑core release mechanism with a robust threaded fitting, Kestrel Engineering delivers dependable, fast and safe tyre‑deflation tools that meet the exacting demands of the global aviation industry.
