The V2500 engine family powers the Airbus A320ceo family and the MD-90; this stand is listed for the -A1 and -A5 variants. It tows the engine at up to 3 MPH on shock-absorbing casters, and bilateral forklift access gives a second handling option. Once parked, the stand rests on retractable support legs, and a document storage compartment keeps the paperwork with the unit. With an engine mounted the stand measures 154 x 96 x 92 in (391 x 244 x 234 cm) and weighs 10,750 lbs (4,876 kg); empty it stands 61 in (155 cm) tall at 4,850 lbs (2,200 kg). Each polyurethane caster is rated at 5,000 lbs (2,268 kg).

For the A320neo generation, we also carry a LEAP-1A engine stand.

Leasing may be the better fit where V2500 support is an ongoing requirement; anything with a fixed end date – a shop induction, an AOG change – is simpler as a rental. Pricing is quoted per enquiry against term and delivery point – request availability and we will come back with dates.

Which V2500 variants does the stand accept?

Both the V2500-A1 and the V2500-A5, using the same base and cradle set (PN AM-2689).

Which aircraft are powered by the V2500?

The Airbus A320ceo family and the MD-90. The stand itself takes the V2500-A1 and V2500-A5 variants.

How is the stand moved around a facility?

It tows at up to 3 MPH (5 km/h) on polyurethane casters rated 5,000 lbs each, and forklift access from both sides gives a second handling option. Retractable support legs stabilize the stand once parked.

Can I rent short term instead of leasing?

Yes. Short-term rental is available alongside longer leases. Rates are provided on request.
