P.M. Research, Inc. is a small business concern. P.M. Research, Inc. manufactures a line of radome and leading edge protective masks (sometimes referred to as boots) and leading edge tapes. These products are a commercial item. These products are manufactured as our off-the-shelf products only. We can make most sizes and shapes that you require. We do not manufacture your products to your specifications under contract or subcontract. Your drawings should simply specify our Product ID for our off-the-shelf items.

Our products are considered as paint or tape since they are in reality tape whether two dimensional or formed into a three dimensional shape. Since our products are not structural in nature, but more of a cosmetic nature and are of the nature of paint and tape, they are not required to be FAA approved. We are not required to have a STC and we are not required to be PMA approved.

Therefore, we do not fall into the normal category of vendor you are used to dealing with and for whom your terms and conditions may be written. For this reason, we offer these terms of sale to make both of our jobs easier and to facilitate a fast response to your needs.

We are approved by many leading aerospace companies.
