European operators of Cessna, Piper, Beechcraft, and Grumman aircraft trust Barry's proven performance for protecting their investments and ensuring smooth, reliable operations.

Grumman Aircraft Barry Mount Applications

Note: All Grumman AA-5 series aircraft utilize a four-mount configuration for optimal load distribution and vibration isolation. Both NEW and factory REBUILT options maintain identical performance specifications and FAA/PMA certification.

Why Choose Barry Mounts for Your Grumman Aircraft?

Grumman-Specific Vibration Isolation Engineering

Barry Mounts are specifically calibrated for the unique structural characteristics of Grumman's bonded aluminum construction. The AA-5 series' distinctive airframe design requires precise vibration isolation to protect the integrity of bonded joints and maintain structural longevity. Our mounts provide optimal dampening characteristics specifically matched to Lycoming O-320 (150 HP) and O-360 (180 HP) engine configurations, ensuring smooth operation across the entire power range from taxi to cruise.

Dublin Warehouse – Your European Advantage

Our Dublin, Ireland warehouse provides Grumman operators throughout Europe with significant advantages over traditional UK suppliers. With Ireland remaining in the EU customs union, you benefit from streamlined VAT processing, no customs delays, and faster delivery times to continental destinations. Whether you're operating from France, Germany, Spain, or anywhere across the EU, our Dublin location ensures your parts arrive quickly and without administrative complications.

FAA/PMA and EASA Certification Compliance

All Barry Mounts carry FAA Parts Manufacturer Approval (PMA) certification, ensuring compliance with stringent aviation safety standards. For European operators, this FAA approval translates seamlessly to EASA acceptance under bilateral airworthiness agreements, simplifying your maintenance documentation and inspection processes. Our technical support team in Dublin understands European regulatory requirements and can assist with certification questions specific to EASA-registered Grumman aircraft.

Four-Point Mounting System Optimization

Grumman AA-5 series aircraft employ a sophisticated four-mount configuration that distributes engine loads evenly across the firewall structure. Each Barry Mount in the system is precision-engineered to work as part of this integrated assembly, maintaining proper engine alignment while isolating vibration frequencies across all operating conditions. This balanced system protects avionics, reduces pilot fatigue, and extends airframe service life by minimizing metal fatigue in critical structural components.

Lycoming O-320 and O-360 Application Expertise

Our Barry Mounts are specifically designed for the Lycoming O-320-E2G (Cheetah) and O-360-A4K (Tiger) engines installed in Grumman aircraft. These four-cylinder, horizontally-opposed engines generate characteristic vibration patterns that require specialized dampening characteristics. Barry's proprietary elastomeric compounds provide optimal isolation across the complete RPM range, from idle through maximum continuous power, protecting both engine accessories and airframe-mounted equipment. Our Dublin-based technical team maintains comprehensive Lycoming parts and cylinder kit inventory to support your complete powerplant needs.

Factory Rebuilt Option – OEM Quality at Reduced Cost

For cost-conscious operators, Barry's factory rebuilt mounts offer an exceptional value proposition without compromising safety or performance. Each rebuilt mount undergoes complete disassembly, inspection, and remanufacturing to original specifications using genuine OEM components. The result is a product that meets identical performance standards as new mounts while providing significant cost savings—particularly valuable for flight schools and commercial operators managing multiple Grumman aircraft in their training fleet.

Training and Personal Aircraft Reliability

Whether you operate a Cheetah for primary training or a Tiger for personal cross-country flying, reliable engine mounts are critical for safe operations. Barry Mounts' proven track record across thousands of Grumman aircraft worldwide provides confidence for both commercial training operations and private owners. The distinctive smooth flying characteristics that made Grumman aircraft popular depend heavily on effective vibration isolation—Barry Mounts ensure your aircraft continues to deliver the comfortable, responsive handling that defines the AA-5 series experience.
