2-10. REPLACE OR SUBSTITUTE BOLTS FOR
SCREWS.
a.
AN standard hex head or clevis bolts can
replace or substitute screws AN525.
b.
No AN standard hex head or clevis bolts can be
replaced or substituted by screws.
c.
Aluminum alloy bolts must not replace or
substitute steel screws.
2-11. BOLT HOLE STANDARDS.
a.
Before replacing fitting installed with bolts,
check holes in fitting and structure for oversize or oval.
b.
Bolts 0.0625-inches larger in diameter than
original bolts can be used. Only one oversize bolt is
allowed for each fitting.
c.
Edge distance and hole sizes must be as follows
on Table 2-2.
2-12. USE OF NUTS. WASHERS, OR COTTER PIN .
a.
Use nut and bolt as follows:
(1)
Both nut and bolt are same material.
(2)
When damaged, replace with same size,
material, and hardness as original nut or bolt
b
Use aluminum alloy washers under aluminum
alloy nuts and bolts.
c.
Use aluminum alloy washers under steel nut on
bolt heads, attaching aluminum parts when not under
tension forces, or a controlled torque is not required.
d.
Use cadmium plated steel washers under steel
nuts or bolt heads attaching steel parts.
e.
Use cadmium plated steel washers under steel
nuts or bolt heads, attaching aluminum alloy parts when
bolt is under tension forces, or a controlled torque is
required.
f.
Steel spring washers may be used a second
time if replacements are not available.
g.
Cotter pin must not be used a second time.
SECTION III. MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR PROCEDURES
2-13. ADHESIVE BONDING.
a.
General.
Subsequent
paragraphs
contain
procedures for the mixing and application of bonding
agents. These procedures should be used only when
referenced in this manual. For non-critical applications
the procedures may be used without specific reference.
To obtain optimum benefit from the information and
tables, select the proper adhesive as follows:
(1)
Determine the type of the material to be
bonded. Cross reference trade names to the type of
material.
(2)
Determine
the
appropriate
adhesive
systems by matching materials in Table 2-3. An
adhesive system may include more than one type of
adhesive, since several adhesives may be identical in
physical properties and use.
(3)
Determine which adhesive system is most
suitable. Table 2-4 lists the criteria for each system.
(4)
Select the adhesive. Table 2-5 lists the
adhesive system numbers and the corresponding
acceptable adhesives. Refer to the task number given
in the column APPLICATION AND CURE for the
acceptable method of bonding.
b.
Criteria for Application of Adhesive Systems.
This information is applicable to all adhesives and must
be strictly adhered to.
(1)
If the adhesive or individual components
of adhesive have been stored under refrigeration allow
adhesive or components to reach 70° F (21.1 °C), prior
to blending or use.
