E01Passenger & crew seats

Support and restrain occupants.

Manufacturers & products

Passenger seats are approved installation assemblies with airline-specific pitch, options and restraint configurations. A seat family name alone is not an eligible replacement part.

Program applicability is stated for each listing. 737NG, 737 MAX, and other aircraft examples are distinct configurations; listed products are not automatically interchangeable or approved for installation.

What remains unverified

Public seat weights rarely include an identical option baseline.
Track-load envelopes, crash-test reports and configuration-specific prices require program inquiry.

Where it comes from

A company address is shown separately from a published factory location. Request the manufacturing site and lot traceability for the exact part when sourcing.

What to compare

Aircraft effectivity and seat tracks
Match approved installation, track geometry and floor loads before comparing comfort.
Mass per passenger place · kg / passenger place
Compare the same cushions, armrests, power, IFE and restraint options.
Pitch and usable knee clearance · in or mm
Equal row pitch can yield different usable space; verify emergency-exit layouts.
Seat width · in or mm
Use width between armrests and the actual aisle/window installation.
Recline and mechanisms
Fixed back and recline options change mass, upkeep and the space behind the seat.
Crashworthiness and head-strike assessment
Certification of a seat article does not approve every cabin installation.
Maintainability
Compare covers, spare modules, mechanism access and repair turnaround.
Passenger power and IFE integration
Account for wiring, cooling and option weight as installed.

Selection & integration notes

Begin with airline layout-of-passenger-accommodation approval, then normalize mass and comfort to the same options.
The cited contracts identify selections, not a current aircraft-by-aircraft installed-base inventory.
