McFarlane FLP-KT-2U Flap Roller Upgrade Kit is an FAA-approved replacement upgrade kit designed to improve the reliability and service life of aircraft flap roller systems on compatible Cessna aircraft. This complete kit addresses common flap arm wear issues by replacing worn rollers, bushings, and related hardware with improved components designed for smoother flap operation.

The flap roller system provides guided movement between the wing flap structure and flap tracks, allowing accurate extension and retraction of the aircraft flaps. Excessive wear in the original roller and bushing components can lead to increased play, uneven flap movement, and accelerated wear of surrounding components. The FLP-KT-2U upgrade kit restores proper alignment and reduces friction within the flap mechanism.

The upgrade kit includes replacement rollers, bushings, shims, spacers where required, wear washers, flap service components, and installation hardware to provide a comprehensive solution for flap system refurbishment. The improved configuration helps simplify maintenance while enhancing durability and long-term operational reliability.

Proper flap operation is critical for safe aircraft performance during takeoff, approach, and landing. During installation and scheduled inspections, technicians should verify correct roller alignment, hardware security, lubrication requirements, and overall flap travel to ensure continued airworthiness.
