This tail pull handle kit is designed for use on Cessna A185F aircraft and is used to safely lift, maneuver, and reposition the aircraft by hand while on the ground. The assembly installs on the aft fuselage/tail section and provides a secure grip point to assist with ground handling operations, particularly useful for tailwheel aircraft operations in hangars, ramps, or maintenance environments.
This kit includes the handle, support tube, and mounting bracket, forming a complete assembly ready for installation. The components are manufactured from durable aircraft-grade metal designed to withstand repeated handling loads while maintaining structural integrity.
The tail lift handle helps prevent damage to the empennage structure by providing a proper lifting point, reducing stress on skins and structural components during aircraft movement.
This item is used and sold as removed, in good condition, showing normal cosmetic wear consistent with previous installation and use. No major structural damage observed. Ideal replacement component for worn, damaged, or missing original tail lift handle assemblies.
