SAN MARINO, Calif., Oct 10, 2011 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Trans-Pacific Aerospace Company, Inc. /quotes/zigman/589862 TPAC -9.17% reported today that the U.S. Navy has begun testing spherical bearings from its China subsidiary under SAE Aerospace Standard 81820. "We are delighted to see that testing has finally commenced, and are confident that the Navy will find the performance of our bearings to spec," said Bill McKay, Trans-Pacific Aerospace CEO. "Should everything proceed as expected, it means we're roughly four weeks away from our Guangzhou facility becoming the first and only manufacturer in China qualified to produce SAE-AS81820 aerospace quality bearings," McKay added. Bearings made by Godfrey Guangzhou Aerospace Bearings, the wholly owned foreign entity of Godfrey (China) Limited, Trans-Pacific Aerospace Company's 25%-owned subsidiary, were submitted to the U.S. Navy for official qualification testing in June after rigorous independent third-party testing. At that time, results demonstrated bearing performance beyond SAE specifications. "Our sales team is ready to follow-through with pre-sale calls immediately upon qualification," said McKay. About Trans-Pacific Aerospace (TPAC) Trans-Pacific Aerospace is in the business of designing, engineering and manufacturing self-lubricating spherical bearings for commercial aircraft, with planned product extensions using similar proprietary technology into maritime, power plant and space applications. To date, Trans-Pacific Aerospace's operations have focused on assisting its 25%-owned Chinese subsidiary, Godfrey (China) Limited, in the development of its production facility in Guangzhou, China and the design and engineering of Godfrey's initial product line of spherical bearings. Godfrey has a special operating license granted by China's Ministry of Science and Technology. Godfrey has completed prototype manufacturing and testing in China and the United States and is pursuing SAE parts qualification of its facility in Guangzhou, China.
