Certified calibration and advanced ceramic protection for the helicopter industry.
Calibration
Certified Calibration Services
Canadian Air Parts specializes in the calibration and repair of Chadwick-Helmuth vibration analysis and balancing equipment. While Honeywell has declared the majority of this equipment obsolete, CAP continues to calibrate and support most units — keeping your equipment operational long after OEM support has ended.
CAP is one of the only shops certified to calibrate both Honeywell Chadwick and DSS MicroVib track and balance systems — two completely different manufacturers and two distinct styles of unit. Whichever platform your fleet runs on, we support it under one roof.
Normal turnaround is 7–10 working days, with expedited AOG service available. Our team provides personalized service including monitoring accelerometers approaching tolerance limits, so you're never caught off guard.

Ceramic Protection
SystemX Aviation Ceramic Coating
The high-altitude environment is unforgiving. SystemX is the latest in ceramic nanotechnology — not a clear bra, wax, polish, or paint sealant. This advanced coating bonds to all painted aircraft surfaces, including composites, acting as a protective barrier with outstanding resistance to friction, heat, and solvents.
Canadian Air Parts is SystemX Aeronautical Coating's exclusive authorized Canadian distributor and installer. Led by Jordan Rendle, CAP has completed ceramic protection applications on more than 30 aircraft to date.

Long-Lasting Beauty, Minimal Maintenance
The unique formula of SystemX coating brings out the full lustre and sheen of your aircraft's finish while extending exterior paint life. The end result greatly reduces cleaning efforts and future repainting expenses.
Enhanced Performance
SystemX Aviation Ceramic protection is super-slick, improving laminar flow and reducing drag for increased fuel efficiency. Ultra-hydrophobic, extremely slick, and glossier than the original paint and brightwork.
Proven Protection
Passed rigid Boeing approval testing with temperature tolerances exceeding 1,000°F. Outstanding resistance to de-icing fluids, UV rays, acid rain, bird droppings, exhaust fumes, solvents, and minor scratches.

Consignment Management
Turn Surplus Inventory Into Value
