463L Air Cargo Nets
Air Cargo Solutions
The Material Handling System 463L is the backbone of global air cargo operations for the United States Air Force, allied air forces, and many commercial operators. With standardized 463L pallets, this system enables efficient, secure, and scalable air transport capabilities. Critical to its functionality are Top Cargo Net HCU 15/C, Side Cargo Net HCU 7/E or Low Profile Side Cargo Net HCU 7 A/E, and other 463L equipment that support safe and effective cargo handling. We also provide TSO C90c air cargo nets for operators of commercial aircraft who are handling 463L pallets.
Why 463L Air Cargo Nets are Essential
463L air cargo nets are specially designed to secure cargo onto 463L pallets during transport on C-type aircraft such as the C-130 Hercules, C-17 Globemaster III, and other military cargo planes. Designed and engineered in the late 1950’s and early 1960’s by USAF to provide efficient intermodal cargo transfer for the United States military, these nets provide high-tensile strength and reliability, ensuring that cargo stays firmly in place even during long-haul flights with complex flight paths. Additionally, operators should be aware 463L air cargo nets are the only air cargo nets permitted for use on USAF aircraft.
