The F116 Nozzle is a medium weight Whittaker standard size nozzle designed for regular duty at commercial airports worldwide. The F116 provides positive leak tight connection to the aircraft adapter during fueling operations. In the basic configuration it is furnished standard with a 6-bolt mounting flanged inlet compatible with any one of several Whittaker swivels and HECV's. It has full length, high strength, solid bicycle-type handles, a man-size flow control handle that is fully interlocked to prevent inadvertent spills, and a dust cap; all as standard equipment. When combined with a swivel and/or HECV it becomes a complete unit. The F116 is therefore a family of nozzles out of which can be obtained the correct nozzle for the application.
The Whittaker F116 is available with two different inlet coupling-strainer sizes (diameter) and various inlet threads.
