Barry Engine Mounts for Cirrus Aircraft

Authorised European Distributor for Hutchinson Aerospace Barry Mounts - SR20 & SR22 Series

Premium Vibration Isolation for Cirrus SR Series Aircraft

Airpart Supply is an authorised European distributor for Hutchinson Aerospace Barry Engine Mounts, providing superior vibration isolation solutions for Cirrus SR20 and SR22 aircraft operating across Europe. The Cirrus SR Series represents a significant advancement in general aviation aircraft design. The SR20, introduced in 1999, was the first production general aviation aircraft equipped with the Cirrus Airframe Parachute System (CAPS) and featured all-composite construction. The Continental-powered SR22 followed in 2001 and has been the best-selling general aviation aircraft since 2003. These innovative aircraft require precision-engineered engine mounts to maintain optimal performance and passenger comfort. Barry Mounts utilise proprietary elastomeric compounds developed by Hutchinson Aerospace to provide exceptional vibration damping and shock attenuation. These FAA/PMA-approved mounts protect critical avionics, reduce pilot and passenger fatigue, and extend the service life of aircraft components by isolating harmful engine vibrations from the airframe. Our Dublin-based EU warehouse ensures fast delivery to customers throughout the European Union with simplified customs procedures, competitive pricing in Euros, and full EASA compliance documentation. Whether you operate a Cirrus for flight training, personal transport, or business aviation, we stock the correct engine parts and accessories for your aircraft.

About Cirrus Aircraft

Cirrus Aircraft, headquartered in Duluth, Minnesota, was founded by brothers Alan and Dale Klapmeier. The company revolutionised general aviation with innovative safety features and modern composite construction. The SR Series introduced several industry firsts including side-yoke flight controls, flat-panel avionics, and the groundbreaking Cirrus Airframe Parachute System (CAPS) - a whole-aircraft recovery parachute that has saved numerous lives since its introduction.

The Cirrus SR20 and SR22 are low-wing cantilever monoplanes featuring fixed tricycle landing gear. Both models are constructed primarily from composite materials, offering excellent strength-to-weight ratios and aerodynamic efficiency. The aircraft are powered by horizontally opposed piston engines from Lycoming (SR20) and Continental Motors (SR22), requiring precisely engineered engine mounting systems to ensure smooth operation.

With over 9,000 SR-series aircraft delivered since 1999, Cirrus is a leading manufacturer in general aviation. European operators benefit from our comprehensive stock of aircraft hardware, oils and lubricants, and maintenance consumables specifically suited to Cirrus aircraft requirements.

Note: Always verify part numbers against your aircraft's specific configuration and serial number. Contact our technical team for assistance with part identification.

Why Choose Barry Mounts for Your Cirrus Aircraft?

Superior Vibration Isolation Technology

Hutchinson Aerospace (formerly Barry Controls) has over 80 years of experience in developing world-class shock and vibration isolation solutions. Barry Mounts for piston-powered aircraft use specially formulated elastomeric compounds bonded to precision-machined metal components. This design absorbs engine vibration while maintaining structural integrity and providing a fail-safe in case of elastomer degradation. Unlike some competitors' products, Barry piston isolators do not require silicone-filled "jelly bags" that can leak and cause premature replacement.

FAA/PMA and EASA Approved

All Barry Engine Mounts are manufactured to exacting aviation standards and carry FAA/PMA approval. For European operators, our products meet EASA requirements, ensuring full compliance with regulatory authorities across the EU. Hutchinson Aerospace has received FAA/PMA certification for numerous general aviation applications, allowing operators to maintain their aircraft with confidence using quality replacement parts from our comprehensive inventory.

Enhanced Aircraft Performance and Comfort

Properly functioning engine mounts are essential for Cirrus aircraft performance. Worn or degraded mounts can cause excessive vibration that affects avionics accuracy, accelerates metal fatigue in the airframe, and creates uncomfortable cabin noise. Barry Mounts effectively isolate the Lycoming or Continental engine from the composite airframe, protecting sensitive electronics including the Garmin Perspective avionics suite fitted to modern Cirrus aircraft.

Proprietary Elastomer Compounds

Hutchinson's chemists develop and produce proprietary blends of elastomeric materials specifically formulated for aircraft engine isolation applications. These include highly-damped elastomers optimised for piston engine frequencies, natural rubber for tear resistance, silicone for high-temperature resistance, and other specialised compounds. The company uses a wide variety of materials to suit the varying requirements of different aircraft applications, ensuring optimal performance across diverse operating conditions.

Reduced Maintenance Costs

Quality engine mounts contribute to lower overall maintenance costs by protecting critical components from vibration-induced wear. Several Barry Mount part numbers are FAA/PMA approved to replace multiple competitor part numbers, reducing inventory requirements for maintenance facilities. This consolidated part number strategy allows operators and maintenance organisations to stock fewer individual parts while still servicing a wide variety of aircraft. Combined with our competitive European pricing and fast delivery from our Dublin warehouse, Barry Mounts represent excellent value for Cirrus operators.

European Distribution Advantages

Airpart Supply operates a dedicated EU warehouse in Dublin, Ireland, ensuring efficient distribution of Barry Engine Mounts and other aviation parts throughout the European Union. Our EU presence provides significant benefits for European Cirrus operators:

Simplified Customs: Orders shipped from our Dublin facility benefit from streamlined EU customs procedures, eliminating the delays and additional paperwork associated with importing from outside the EU. This is particularly important for time-critical parts needed to return aircraft to service.

VAT-Inclusive Pricing: Our Euro pricing includes VAT where applicable, simplifying accounting for EU-based maintenance organisations and aircraft operators. Trade account customers benefit from VAT exemption on qualifying purchases.

Fast Delivery: Stock items typically ship same-day for next-business-day delivery to most EU destinations. This reduces aircraft downtime and helps maintenance facilities meet scheduled service requirements. We also stock related consumables including aircraft oils, hardware, and cleaning products.

EASA Documentation: All products supplied include appropriate documentation for EASA-regulated aircraft. Our team understands European aviation regulatory requirements and can assist with documentation queries for general aviation and commercial operations.
