70358-06600-046 Main Rotor Pitch Control Rod Assembly – Sikorsky H?60 Flight?Control Component

Description

The 70358-06600-046 Pitch Control Rod Assembly is a precision?engineered flight control linkage designed for Sikorsky H?60/S?70 series helicopters. Classified as a critical rotor?control component, this assembly transfers pilot inputs from the flight controls to the main rotor system, enabling accurate pitch changes and stable aerodynamic performance. Manufactured with high?strength alloys and corrosion?resistant hardware, it is built to withstand vibration, tensile loading, and continuous cyclic motion during demanding operational conditions. The assembly typically includes rod ends, bearings, and adjustable fittings to ensure proper alignment and smooth control response throughout the helicopter’s flight envelope.
