This specification covers metric aircraft quality spacers for use as positioners for tubes, flat washers for use as load spreaders, galling protection of adjacent surfaces and or material compatibility, and key or tab washers for use as locks for bolts, nuts, and screws
ABSTRACT In this paper a new bolt attachment method was explored, where the attaching bolts were divided into two sets. The first set of bolts was tightened and was used to connect the underbody plate to the hull under ordinary operations. The second set of bolts connecting the plate and the hull were not tightened and had some extra axial freedom. Under blast loading, the first set of bolts would break due to high tensile and shear loads, but the second set of bolts would survive due to extra axial freedom which allows the plate and the hull vibrate and separate from each other to a certain extent. A simulation model was developed to verify this concept. Three underbody plate-hull connection approaches were simulated and analyzed: 1) all tightened bolts, 2) some bolts not fully seated, 3) all bolts not fully seated. The simulation results show that with option 1), 100% of the bolts broke under the blast loading. With option 2) the not fully seated bolts survived and continued to
This SAE Aerospace Recommended Practice establishes the requirements and procedures for eddy current inspection of open fastener holes in aluminum aircraft structures
This specification covers closely-wound helical coil, screw thread inserts made from an age hardenable nickel base alloy formed wire of the type identified under the Unified Numbering System as UNS N07750. The inner surface of the insert coil, after assembly into a screw thread tapped hole, provides internal threads of standard 60° Unified Form
This specification establishes the requirements for the following types of self-locking nuts in thread diameter sizes 0.1380 through 0.6250 inches: a Wrenching Nuts: i.e., hexagon, double hexagon and spline nuts. b Anchor Nuts: i.e., plate nuts, gang channel nuts, and shank nuts. The wrenching nuts, shank nuts, and nut elements of plate and gang channel nuts are made of a corrosion and heat resistant nickel-base alloy of the type identified under the Unified Numbering System as UNS N07001 and of 180,000 psi axial tensile strength at room temperature, with maximum conditioning of parts at 1400 °F prior to room temperature testing
This procurement specification covers aircraft-quality solid rivets and tubular end rivets made from a corrosion-resistant steel of the type identified under the Unified Numbering System as UNS S34700
Imagine a portable 3D printer you could hold in the palm of your hand. The tiny device could enable a user to rapidly create customized, low-cost objects on the go, like a fastener to repair a wobbly bicycle wheel or a component for a critical medical operation
Conventional drug delivery is often like cracking a nut with a sledgehammer. Whether the drug is swallowed, injected, inhaled, or absorbed through the skin, it ultimately diffuses to most parts of the body, including those where it isn’t needed — or where it even might cause harm
This specification covers a corrosion-resistant steel in the form of wire
