FAA approved Laminar Flow Speed Pants will add up to 10.5 mph over bare wheels and up to 8 mph over stock wheel pants for all Piper PA-28 and PA-32 aircraft models. A special pressure recovery design improves rate of climb with most installations.
At 10 pounds, these second generation Speed Pants are lighter and up to 5 times stronger than conventional Piper wheel pants. They are made of three layers of hand-laid, 10 ounce fiberglass which is oven cured with a high strength resin. Additional layers of cloth are applied to stress areas. A removable panel allows easy access to brakes. Wing to wheel fairing improve the aesthetics of the main gear.
