Aviapool makes every effort to offer the very lowest prices possible for the best quality aviation maintenance tools. As part of this goal, we intentionally require customers requesting specific quote information to provide their requests via our online portal at
https://www.aviapool.com/request.php.
If requesting information in general, please email
sales@aviapool.com. Please note that all requests for specific part numbers should be submitted via the online portal.
All quotes are provided within an email for documentation purposes. We are not able to provide your quote as a separate pdf at this time, but we are looking into adding this feature in the future.
Our lead-time indicates the number of days after an order is placed (and paid for in the case if Cash in Advance Terms) that an item should be available for shipment from one of Aviapool’s contracted production centers. Please allow up to five additional days for processing, plus standard transit time. Items marked with an asterisk (*) next to the lead-time may require extended processing of up to ten days due to local warehouse procedures. Items listed with a one-day lead-time are subject to prior sale and are not confirmed until an order acknowledgment is issued or, for proforma invoice customers, payment is received.
Our lead-time calculation excludes Saturdays, Sundays, USA Bank Holidays and UK Bank Holidays.
We strive to provide quotes as quickly as possible, and our extensive database often enables us to respond the same business day when current product information is readily available.
For products without up-to-date information, we may need to research options or confirm pricing, lead times, and availability with our manufacturing partners, distributors, or stockholders. In these cases, you can expect to receive your quote within an average of three business days.

Aviapool makes every effort to provide the fastest possible service on all requests for quote. However we are not able to provide “aircraft on the ground – AOG” service in the traditional airline industry capacity as ongoing stocking is not feasible for most tools (due to the nature of tooling being expensive with a limited market and subject to ongoing aircraft manufacturer revision). However, we make every effort to expedite when possible, and if you note extra urgency when requesting your quote, we will prioritize your request.
If you have not received your quote, one of the following has occurred: we are still investigating a solution, we are unable to quote, we do not recognize the item, or your item is not tooling. On each of these occasions we will send a response to you within three to five business days.
If it is after five business days and you still have not received answer, please check your spam/junk folder prior to reaching out to
sales@aviapool.com.
Currently all orders must be submitted by email to the sales representative whose name and email is on the quote you have received from Aviapool. To place your order, please reply to the quote email presented to you from Aviapool. You will need to confirm your items needed, pricing, delivery and billing addresses, shipping method and account number. If all these details are on your own documents (I.e. Your own purchase order), simply attach that to your email reply and send it to us.
Given the complexity of the tooling we sell, the high value, risk of mistakes, need for many details such as billing contacts and shipping addresses, we are unable to take any orders by telephone. Currently all orders must be submitted by email to the sales representative whose name and email is on the quote you have received from Aviapool. We expect to have the ability to convert your quote to an order online in the near future.

Aviapool makes every effort to provide the fastest possible service on all tool requests. We prioritize efficiency and work to expedite orders whenever possible. If your request is time-sensitive, please indicate the urgency when placing your order, and we will do our best to accommodate your timeline. However, please be aware that many tools are made to order, and ongoing stocking is not feasible for most items, which means we are often unable to improve upon the originally quoted lead time.
Given the complex nature of sourcing and processing of maintenance tooling, no Purchase Order that has been accepted by Aviapool (via
marketing@aviapool.com delivery of either a pro-forma invoice or order acknowledgement from Aviapool), may be cancelled by you (the customer) except at Aviapool’s sole and absolute discretion. If Aviapool agrees to cancel such a PO, you shall pay Aviapool a restocking fee determined on a case by case basis as a percentage of the sales price.
Aviapool partners with manufacturers worldwide, each of whom maintains its own internal procedures regarding documentation, including product photographs.
During the quoting process, we can often provide a generic stock photo upon request. In many cases, we are also able to supply actual product photos during shipment preparation. However, we cannot guarantee the availability of photographs for every transaction.
Aviapool can often accommodate the use of your company’s documentation, depending on the specific circumstances. To ensure the best opportunity for successful inclusion, this request should be made at the time the order is placed.
Aviapool accepts checks, domestic USA ACH transfers, UK payments, international wire transfers, and most credit cards. All transactions are subject to a $45 processing fee. For credit card charges over $5,000 USD, an additional 3% fee will be applied to any amount over $5,000 USD.
Aviapool requires that all first-time customers operate on a Cash in Advance basis on the first order.
Subsequently, the customer can request terms with us by contacting
credit@aviapool.com. During the credit approval review process, Aviapool, on an order by order consideration, may be able to allow for partial deposit and final remittance at time of delivery. Please ask for this consideration at the time of order negotiation and placement.
Aviapool makes every effort to present the most competitive pricing on all quotes. However, a further discount is considered on a case-by-case basis, especially where large orders or multiple quantities are being ordered. Please send any price discount request to the quoting representative named on your emailed quotation.
Given the wide range and volume of aircraft maintenance tools, Aviapool works with supply and manufacturing partners around the world, which can result in price changes throughout the year. Some partners adjust pricing annually, while others maintain stable pricing. Currency exchange rate fluctuations may also affect pricing.
Aviapool makes every effort to hold pricing for as long as possible. However, all quotations clearly state a validity period of 30 days. If this period expires, you will need to re-enquire to confirm current pricing, should any changes have occurred.
Banking instructions will be included on the face of your order acknowledgement or pro forma invoice.
If you have any issues with your order, please contact by email the same sales representative who received your purchase order. They will review the situation and initiate Aviapool Quality procedures to work to resolve the matter to your satisfaction as quickly as possible.
