Bogert Aviation 06-BBOXPC-BLACK Black Powder Coat Finish Piper Battery Box

Increased customer concerns led Bogert Aviation to address corrosion problems found in aging Piper metal slope-top battery boxes. At the same time, providing a solution for aircraft with plastic style boxes which are prone to broken vent tubes, warped lids and cracking.

Bogert’s Battery Box is a bolt in replacement for most Piper Aircraft regardless of original metal or plastic box installation. It is similar to Piper’s metal sloped top box, but with several improvements.

First, the box construction is welded stainless steel with stainless steel drain tube instead of soldered seams and copper drain tube. Secondly, if a vent tube becomes damaged, the screw in vent tube design allows for a quick and inexpensive change. Bogert also incorporated a previous STC, SA4008NM, The Battery Box Modification into this box. The modification’s u-shaped nylon flanges offer extra protection against shorting, greater access to the battery and cleaner electrical connections resulting in reliable starting.

The boxes are available in bare stainless steel finish, but the powder coating looks great in both white and black!
