Carlisle Interconnect Technologies (CarlisleIT) has developed
an innovative line of lightweight ARINC trays that are 20%
lighter than standard trays.
All of our trays are designed and fabricated using top quality
aerospace-grade materials that meet or exceed ARINC
specifications, as well as all civil and military aircraft application
criteria.
Our special lightweight designs stand up to the most rigorous
environmental hazards for in-flight and on-the-ground
operations. Each tray is fully warrantied, ensuring that your
avionics systems equipment will fit securely and operate safely.
