How is tightening of the fluid line and fitting achieved (flare less)? A. Until distinct torque is felt and turn and further turn 2 flat. B. Turn to further 3 flat. C. Until distinct torque is felt and further turn 1 flat.
Understand the Problem
The question is asking about the methods used for tightening fluid lines and fittings in a flare less manner. It provides multiple options indicating different techniques or steps to achieve the desired result.
Answer
C. Until distinct torque is felt and further turn 1 flat.
The final answer is C. Until distinct torque is felt and further turn 1 flat.
Answer for screen readers
The final answer is C. Until distinct torque is felt and further turn 1 flat.
More Information
In aircraft hydraulic systems, fittings are typically tightened until distinct torque is felt, which ensures there is enough resistance to indicate a proper seal, and then further turned for one additional flat to secure the connection.
Tips
A common mistake is over-tightening, which can damage the fitting or line. Ensure you follow the specific torque and turning instructions.
