Clamar Technologies
Inc and Flight Design announced recently a joint venture to introduce
a new float system that will be on display in the Flight Design
booth at Airventure (OSH) in July of 2010.
The Flight design CTLS will have a new Clamar Model 1400 Amphibious
float system installed that will meet all the LSA rules. This float
system has been specifically designed for the CT.
Clamar has been successfully selling larger floats for some years
using Kevlar, Carbon fiber and their unique infusion process. Currently
Clamar have their floats on 17 different types of aircraft.
Both Clamar and Flight Design’s booths at OSH are at the main
entrance next to the Cessna booth.
Clamar is offering a similar float system to other LSA and experimental
aircraft and will be showing that version in its own booth #120
at the show.

For Immediate Release
LSA Float systems
Clamar Technologies Inc. announced today the introduction of its
Model
1400 series amphibious and straight floats for the LSA category
at Oshkosh,
Wisconsin’s EAA AirVenture 2009.
The new LSA line is an extension of Clamar composite floats and
will
incorporate many of the unique features now available for larger
aircraft into
the new offering for the LSA line of aircraft. Clamar presently
has its float
systems on 16 different types of aircraft in North America and Australia.
Clamar will be partnering with LSA manufacturers to create a product
that
will enhance their ability to meet the needs of a growing demand
for a float
plane option in the LSA market place.
In addition to the LSA product certified under the ASTM standards,
Clamar
will have a product in the 1400 to 1600 pound category for the LSA-E
experimental and kit markets. For the first time customers will
be offered a
complete composite kit for a quadricycle float system. In addition
to the
amphibious systems, Clamar will also offer these floats in a straight
float
version.
Using the latest technology in advanced composites, Clamar incorporates
epoxy by infusion through a unique vacuum system. Carbon fiber,
Kevlar
and S- glass are used to make the Glaslite float systems a premier
product.
Advanced composite materials like Aramid/Kevlar can be used because
of
this specialized infusion process.
The amphibious version of the Model 1400 float will displace 1430
lbs of
fresh water or 1588 lbs with the 80 % rule and the total system
will have a
target exchange weight of less than 225 pounds for most LSA float
capable
aircraft. Delivery positions for all 3 versions of the float system
will be
available after October 15, 2009.
