Study Notes
Aircraft Hardware Importance
- The safe and effective operation of aircraft depends heavily on the selection and use of aircraft hardware.
Aircraft Hardware Standards
- Specifications and standards for aircraft hardware are often identified by their originating organization.
- Common examples include - AMS, AN, AND, AS, ASA, ASTM, MS, NAF, NAS, SAE.
- Standards dictate quality and materials, ensuring uniformity for aircraft production.
Quick-Release Fasteners
- Quick-release fasteners allow rapid installation and removal of parts without needing tools.
- Examples include: detent pins, double-acting pins, and Camloc fasteners.
Detent Pins
- These are basic non-threaded fasteners offering a simple locating function.
- Examples:
- Ring pull detent pin - simple location, no lock, pushed to insert and pulled to remove.
- Double acting steel pin - features a ball lock mechanism released by pushing or pulling a ring handle. Offers vibration resistance and instant self-locking.
Camloc Fasteners
- Consist of four main parts:
- Receptacle
- Grommet
- Retaining ring
- Stud assembly
