The Floor Protector panels are constructed of high density, impact resistant aerospace grade polycarbonate that will not warp or crack from extremes of heat or cold that are securely attached into existing nutplates.

Baggage Compartment Trim Protector Kit

The DAS Baggage Compartment Trim Protector Kit consists of two stainless steel scuff plates that are installed into existing screws on the left and/or right hand side of the lower edge of the baggage compartment to protect it from damage.

The DAS Anti-Rotation Blocks are fabricated from durable Teflon and install on the lead lag dampers to prevent costly damage to the main rotor head.  Each kit includes 5 blocks.
