Tail wheel identification help.

Hello folks,

I have seen a tail wheel which I am looking to identify. Unfortunately, I have no photos at present.

The tyre is stamped “Aero” with static conductivety and 4.00 3 1/2.

The hub appears to have AHO DG 23299

Any help would be gratefully received.

Thank you,
TEC

I know they were bought from WW2 stock in large numbers by Slingsby Sailplanes and re-used in sailplanes. The T.30, for one, has them.

I don’t have access to Dunlop drawing numbers I’m afraid.

However the AHO… number is a sub assembly drawing. The actual number for the whole wheel will only have two prefix letters, ie AH…, AC…, AD..

I just thought if you could find that it might help identification.
