RAPCO Fleet Support brake parts

Rapco Fleet Support, Inc. (rfsbrakes.com), which gives the same Hartland phone number, (262) 367-6210, manufactures and distributes FAA PMA brake parts. Its site has a page dedicated to the Cirrus SR22 that describes Rapco Fleet Support as a manufacturer and distributor of PMA approved replacement brake parts for the SR22, including drive key replacements for wheel and brake assemblies. The SR22 page is the only part of rfsbrakes.com our tools could read; the rest of the site sits behind an anti-bot block, so the full SR22 parts list and any SR20 coverage could not be confirmed. Contact the company for part numbers and pricing.
