Bell Helicopter Tail Rotor Grips – P/N 205-011-711-101 | FAA 8130 Included | Inspected & Serviceable

Bell Helicopter Tail Grips. Enhance the reliability and safety of your rotor system with these Bell Helicopter Tail Rotor Grips,

part number 205-011-711-101, offered in inspected and serviceable condition. These are critical dynamic components

within the tail rotor hub assembly, responsible for securely holding the tail rotor blades while allowing precise pitch change movement.

Properly maintained grips are essential for smooth yaw control, vibration management, and overall tail rotor performance.

This set includes FAA Form 8130 Airworthiness Approval documentation, providing traceability and confidence for certified

aircraft installation. For maintenance facilities, fleet operators, and helicopter owners, having tagged, serviceable tail rotor components helps streamline return-to-service procedures and supports compliance with airworthiness requirements.

Bell Helicopter Tail Grips

Designed for Bell Helicopter Platforms

These grips are specified for the Bell 205 series and may be compatible with related models that share tail rotor system

architecture (fitment must always be verified against the applicable Illustrated Parts Catalog and maintenance manuals).

The Bell 205 platform, widely recognized for its rugged utility performance, relies heavily on dependable tail rotor components

to maintain directional stability in demanding operational environments.

Tail rotor grips experience continuous centrifugal loads, pitch change forces, and vibration cycles during flight. Installing

properly inspected and approved components ensures the tail rotor hub assembly can perform as designed across a wide

range of mission profiles, including utility operations, external load work, training, and general rotorcraft transport roles.

Condition & Documentation

• Condition: Inspected and confirmed serviceable
• Certification: FAA Form 8130 Airworthiness Tag included
• Status: Ready for installation

The inclusion of an 8130 tag indicates the component has been evaluated in accordance with approved procedures, making it suitable for installation on eligible certified aircraft when installed per applicable data. This documentation is particularly valuable for repair stations, maintenance shops, and operators maintaining strict record-keeping standards.

Bell Helicopter Tail Grips

Critical Role in the Tail Rotor System

Tail rotor grips serve several vital functions:

• Securely attach tail rotor blades to the hub
• Transmit pitch control inputs from the pitch change links
• Withstand high centrifugal and aerodynamic loads
• Maintain alignment and structural integrity during operation

Because these parts are directly involved in anti-torque and yaw control, their condition has a direct influence on handling quality, vibration levels, and overall flight safety. Serviceable, properly documented grips are an important element of maintaining system reliability.

Ideal For

These tail rotor grips are well suited for:

• Helicopter maintenance facilities
• Fleet support operations
• Operators maintaining Bell utility helicopters
• Spare parts inventory for scheduled maintenance
• Component replacement during hub or tail rotor servicing
