(2) Oversize and Alternative Fasteners
(a) When a fastener hole is damaged or out of tolerance refer to Chapter 51-43-00, Fastener
Oversize and Alternatives.
(b) When the correct fastener is not available refer to Chapter 51-43-00, Fastener Oversize
and Alternatives.

CAUTION: DO NOT USE CADMIUM PLATED TOOLS ON PARTS MADE FROM TITANIUM.
CADMIUM PARTICLES CAN CAUSE BRITTLENESS AND CRACKS IN TITANIUM.
LEAD, SILVER, ZINC AND TIN, CAN CAUSE THE SAME EFFECT IF THE TITANIUM
IS HEATED ABOVE 120 °C (250 °F).
(3) Special Tools
Where special tools are referred to in this chapter these must be used to install and remove the
applicable fastener. These tools must be kept in good condition, and the fastener contact area of
the tool must be clean and smooth.
(4) Loose Fasteners
(a) The conditions that follow can indicate a loose fastener:
- the fastener moves in relation to the attached material. Deflection of thin skins can
be seen,
- the head of a fastener is rolled upwards at its periphery,
- a black or dark grey stain adjacent to or around the fastener head. The stain usually
takes the shape of a streak of dirt or oil behind the loose fastener,
- broken or disrupted paint finish over fastener heads.
(b) If the indications do not clearly show that a fastener is loose mark a red line across the
head and the adjacent material. Check this line at the next inspection. A loose fastener is
shown when the line on the fastener head does not agree with the line on the material
(Refer to Figure 001).
(c) In general loose fasteners must be replaced, except for some fasteners in the wing skins,
which may be re-torqued. Refer to paragraph

(b) One washer 1.6 mm (0.063 in) thick, or two washers 0.8 mm (0.031 in) thick, can be used.
The use of one washer is preferred.
(c) A suitable standard washer is, e.g. NAS1149 (aluminum and steel material) or NAS1252
(aluminum material only). A washer with an inner diameter close to the fastener diameter
should be selected. For the correct material refer to the Table 1 that follows:

NOTE: For Bullnose Fasteners refer to Table 18 and 19.

(7) At the appropriate stage of a repair or re-assembly, the correct sealing/jointing compound must
be applied if it is required (Refer to Chapter 51-24-00).
(8) Lubricated Fasteners
(a) Fasteners that are supplied lubricated with lubricant (CA) must not be cleaned before they
are installed. The torque values for these fasteners has been calculated for the lubricated
condition. After installation the visible parts of the fastener must be fully cleaned to ensure
that the paint coating or sealant adheres correctly.
(b) It is a requirement that fasteners to be painted are cleaned with cleaning agent's
'SOCOMOR DN 108' or industrial alcohol, after they have been installed.
(c) It is a requirement that within the fuel tanks the visible parts of these fasteners are
cleaned with cleaning agents 'ARDROX PST 108' or 'SOCOSOLVE 446' after they have
been installed. This will ensure that the encapsulating sealant adheres correctly.
(9) Chapter 51-42-00 gives a list of other chapters that are related to this task.
(10) Cleanliness
(a) It is important that all unwanted materials and tools are removed from the inside of the
structure when a repair is completed. When necessary this must be done before the final
repair step.
(b) Failure to remove unwanted materials and tools could cause:
- physical obstruction of moving parts,
- blocked drain holes, this could cause a build-up of waste fluids and corrosion,
- corrosion caused by the effect of contact between dissimilar materials, this
corrosion cannot always be seen at an early stage.

Where due to the accumulation of tolerances, the required fastener grip length is not
compatible with that given on the drawing, the inspection function may allow substitution
of an alternative grip length subject to the following limitations:
- fastener grip length variations shall not exceed ±1 of that given on the drawing or
AIPC,
- fastener protrusion and geometric installation parameters shall conform to the
requirements of the SRM,
- required clearance allowances shall be maintained to prevent fouling of parts.
B. Fastener Selection
(1) For the selection of fasteners refer to the type, material, protection, diameter, length and, if
necessary, to the oversize diameter. A specified selection of the fasteners that are used on this
aircraft is given in this task in the fastener type paragraphs. Usually, fasteners are given an
identification number that show its type, material, protection, diameter and length. The
identification numbers of the different types of fasteners are given in Chapter 51-40-12,
Fasteners - Call-up and Designation.
(2) The dash numbering system that is given in Chapter 51-40-12 is not applicable to all fasteners. It
is sometimes necessary to physically measure the required fastener.

Do a visual check to make sure that the parts have a layer of lubricant all over
them. A white film or a frosty aspect can be a result of the lubrication and is no
cause to reject the part.
(c) Service Life of the Solution
When a bath of lubricant is in permanent use, it is necessary to replace the solution after
30 days of continuous use. This is necessary because of the possible contamination of
the bath within this time. Contamination can have an adverse effect on the solution. If
used intermittently, replace the solution after 50 hours or 60 days.
D. Bolts, Screws and Nuts

NOTE: For oversize installation, always use a washer under the nut to prevent clashing of the nut
with the shank of the bolt, unless the nut has the capability to be used with oversized bolt.
(1) You may use power and/or hand tools to install and remove bolts, screws and nuts. If a specific
type of tool is required this will be given in this task where relevant.
(2) Install bolts and screws, where practical, with the head either uppermost or foremost; as
appropriate. In this position there is less risk of the bolt/screw falling out if it becomes unsecured.
(3) If not specified in a repair procedure, or by the original position of the fastener, install nuts so
that not less than 1/32 in (0.8 mm) of the bolt or screw extends through the nut. If the bolts or
screws are chamfered, the full chamfer must extend through the nut.
(4) The torque values for fasteners are given in Chapter 51-49-00.
(5) Reuse of Fasteners (Nuts, Bolts and Washers)
It is recommended that nuts and bolts that were installed to a specific torque value are not
reused. However, when it is necessary to reuse such nuts and bolts apply the rules that follow:
(a) Do not reuse aluminum alloy nuts.
(b) Nuts and bolts made from metallic materials other than aluminum, can be reused if:
- the surface protection of the nut/bolt is not damaged
- the original lubrication can be renewed
- the applicable torque can be achieved.
(c) A plain washer can be re-used on a permanent basis provided it is not damaged and
relevant protection is applied as required.
(d) A lock nut washer / tab washer has several tabs and only one tab can be used to lock the
nut. The re-use of a lock nut washer / tab washer is acceptable on a permanent basis
provided that:
- Lock washer has not been damaged during removal and relevant protection is
applied as required.
- A previously un-used tab is utilized to secure the lock nut after installation.
E. Rivets (Solid Rivets)
(1) General
(a) For the installation of rivets the subsequent methods apply:
- the continuous squeeze riveting process,
- hammering with a pneumatic rivet gun,

- hand hammering.
The continuous squeeze method is recommended, but if this method is not available then
pneumatic hammering is the next recommended method. The hand hammering method is
used primarily for small repairs that include very few rivets. It can also be used if other
methods are not available.
(b) A squeeze riveting tool makes the upset head of a rivet in a single continuous action. For
this effect the tools given below are necessary:
- a hydraulically operated tool,
- or a pneumatically operated tool.
Static and portable types of tools are available.
(c) The rivet gun, used with a back-up dolly (bucking bar), forms the upset head. This is
known as reaction riveting. A correctly shaped rivet set (rivet snap) is held in the gun and
located on the manufactured head end of the rivet. At the same time the dolly is held
against the end of the rivet to be upset. When the gun operates, the dolly reaction to the
pneumatic hammering of the gun forms the upset head.
(d) Hand hammering is the basic method used to make the upset head of a rivet. For this
method do the subsequent steps:
1 Support the manufactured head with a correctly shaped rivet set,
2 Hold a dolly against the end of the rivet and hit it until the upset head has the
correct shape.

NOTE: Make sure that the hammer blows are heavy and as few as possible
because a large number of light blows work-hardens the rivet. This can
result in cracks in the upset head.
(e) Make sure that the tools are sufficiently large to quickly form the upset head. The
subsequent times for the formation of the upset head are recommended:
- three or four seconds is the optimum time,
- seven seconds is the maximum time.
Hold the back-up dolly in position until the rivet is fully installed.
(f) Before you install rivets in the aircraft structure, make some testpieces to check the rivet
and tool precision. These test-pieces must have the subsequent properties:
- for testpieces, the same type of material and thickness as the part to be riveted,
- for rivets, the same type of material, length and diameter as the rivets to be used.
(g) Visually check rivets before they are installed. If a rivet appears defective, for example,
deep scores or indication of wire drawing, reject it. Some apparent defects, for example,
isolated nicks, abrasions, die marks or fins, are acceptable up to a maximum depth of
0.10 mm (0.004 in).
(h) Rivets made from 2017A, 3.1324 and 2024 materials must be kept in a refrigerator after
they have been heat-treated. Refer to Chapter 51-25-00 for further information.
(i) For the minimum part thickness on the upset head side of 7050 rivets refer to Table 2.

(2) Installation (Refer to Figure 003 and Figure 004)
(a) Select the required rivet. If for any reason the dimensions of the required rivet are not
known proceed as follows:
1 Accurately measure the diameter of the hole. If the diameter of the hole is within the
tolerances for a standard rivet (Refer to Chapter 51-44-00), select a rivet of this
diameter. If the diameter of the hole is not within the tolerances, increase the
diameter of the hole to suit an oversize rivet if applicable, or the next standard size.
2 To find the required rivet length, accurately measure the total thickness of the
materials to be joined. Refer to Figure 003 to find the correct length that is relevant
to the rivet diameter found above.

NOTE: If necessary, the rivet can be cut by shearing to the required length. This
does not apply to titanium rivets.
(b) Get the correct rivet set and back-up dolly for the rivet type and dimensions (Refer to
Figure 004).
(c) Make sure that the hole, and if applicable, the countersunk portion is in a satisfactory
condition. This includes clean and free from burrs.
(d) Clean the parts as necessary. Apply sealant or jointing compound if it is called for:
- in the related repair drawing,
- in the related assembly drawing,
or is normally used in the area concerned (external surfaces, fuel tank areas), refer to
Chapter 51-76-11 or Chapter 51-76-12 (fuel tank) for wet installation of rivets.

NOTE: Install the rivets before the work life of the sealant or jointing compound ends.
(e) Make sure that the contact surfaces of the parts are fully together and that there are no
gaps between them. Gaps will prevent the correct forming of the rivet and reduce the joint
strength.
(f) Align the holes as necessary and attach the parts together temporarily. Take care not to
cause damage to the local area with tools.
(g) Put the rivet fully in the hole. For this operation make sure that the parts are correctly
supported if necessary.
(h) Form the upset head. To do this, use one of the methods given in paragraph
2.

General. Hold the tools at right angles to the surfaces do not compress the rivet too much.
If the upset head is over compressed, it is possible that the material will crack (Refer to
Figure 007). Refer to Figure 004 for the recommended back-up dolly dimensions.
(3) Inspection (Refer to Figure 005, Figure 006, Figure 007 and Figure 008)
(a) General
1 This section gives information about the general inspection limits for solid rivets.
2 Make an inspection of the rivets after they are installed. This is necessary to make
sure that the joint is tight, and that the rivets are fully seated and correctly formed.
Make sure that the adjacent area has no damage and distortions.

NOTE: For additional data relating to Figure 003, refer to Table 3,Table 4, Table 5

are applicable to those rivets that become part of the structural strength after
installation. For example, rivets that fasten the skin, formed and extruded sections.
The acceptance limits of rivets that are not so important shall be the decision of the
inspector. Example of such rivets are those used to fasten identification tags and
instruction/information labels.
4 A large number of cracks found in a high percentage of installed rivets indicates
that the rivets have not been correctly heattreated. It can also mean that the
installation time allowed for heat-treated rivets has been exceeded. It is necessary
to scrap and replace all of these rivets, including those which are not used, from the
batch concerned, or have them heat-treated again (Refer to Chapter 51-25-00).
5 Deformation or buckling of the plating is only permitted within the limits given in
Chapter 51-10-00. This type of damage is a result of:
- too much tool pressure,
- rivets expanded between the sheets,
- trapped foreign material.
6 Make sure that the head of a countersunk rivet is level with or slightly above the
surface of the material. Refer to Chapter 51-10-00 for the rivet head protrusion
limits.
(b) Acceptance Limits
1 Ovality of the upset head is permitted if the dimensions are within the upset
diameter limits. These limits together with the applicable rivet material are given in
Figure 005.
2 Eccentricity of the upset head is permitted if the rivet shank cannot be seen (Refer
to Figure 006).
3 Malformation of the upset head is permitted (Refer to Figure 006) if the shape is
within the dimension limits given in Figure 005.
4 Tool impact damage around the two heads is permitted within the limits given in
Figure 006.
5 Cracks in the upset head of aluminum alloy 2017 and 2024 rivets are permitted
within the limits given in Figure 007. Cracks in the upset head of other aluminum
alloy rivets are not permitted. Cracks in the structure material under either head are
not permitted.
6 Cracks in the heads of titanium and monel rivets are not permitted.
7 Lack of head/material abutment (seating) is permitted within the limits given in
Figure 008.

NOTE: Cracks are not permitted in the upset heads of titanium or monel rivets.
NOTE: For additional data relating to Figure 007 refer to Table 15 that follow
below.

(4) Removal (Refer to Figure 009)

CAUTION: CAREFULLY REMOVE THE RIVET TO PREVENT DAMAGE TO THE RIVETED


MATERIAL. THIS IS SPECIALLY NECESSARY IF IT IS THIN SHEET. MAKE
SURE THAT YOU APPLY THE TOOLS CORRECTLY TO THE SURFACE
DURING USE.
(a) To remove a solid rivet, first remove one of its heads, then remove the rest of the rivet out
of its hole.
(b) Select which rivet head must be removed. It is better to remove the manufactured (set)
head (this head is on the center-line of the rivet shank). Hold a dolly or equivalent tool
against the upset head, and then centre-punch the rivet head. This will give a location for
the twist-drill tip (Refer to Figure 009).

CAUTION: MAKE SURE THAT THE RIVET DOES NOT TURN WHEN YOU DO STEP,
SPECIALLY IF IT IS LOOSE. GRIP THE RIVET UPSET HEAD WITH PLIERS
OR EQUIVALENT TOOL TO HOLD IT IF NECESSARY. MAKE SURE THAT
YOU DO NOT DAMAGE THE MATERIAL.
(c) Use a twist-drill with a slightly smaller diameter than the rivet shank. Put the twist-drill in
the center punch indentation and drill the head to the depth as shown in Figure 009.

NOTE: Make an estimate of the drilling-depth and use, if possible, a mechanical stop to
make sure that the drilling-depth is correct.
NOTE: Titanium rivets can be drilled with a standard high-speed twistdrill if the tip of the
twist-drill is:
- reground to an angle of 80°,
- and given a point clearance of 5°.
(d) Put a tight-fitting parallel punch into the drilled hole and move the punch at an angle to
break off the rivet head.

(e) Support the material around the rivet and with a punch remove the rivet shank out of its
hole.

NOTE: It is permitted to drill a hole in the rivet shank to make the removal of a tight-
fitting rivet easy.
F. Pin (Threaded) Fasteners (HI-LOK and HI-LITE)

NOTE: For oversize installation, always use a washer under the nut to prevent clashing of the nut
with the shank of the bolt, unless the nut has the capability to be used with oversized bolt.
(1) General
(a) There are two parts of the pin (Threaded) fastener:
- a threaded pin with a head (universal or countersunk),
- a collar with an internal thread and an external shear groove.
The pin has an hexagonal recess in the threaded end. This recess permits the use of an
Allen wrench to hold the pin during the installation. The hexagonal drive-end of the collar
breaks off at the shear groove when the collar is installed to its correct torque value (Refer
to Figure 010).
(b) In some areas with a limited clearance self-locking nuts and washers are used instead of
collars (Refer to Figure 010). In this situation on the wings, a washer is not used, this
reduces the risk of a fuel leak.
(c) When pin (Threaded) fasteners are used to join structure with outer surfaces that are not
parallel (Refer to Figure 010), the conditions that follow are applicable:
1 When standard aluminum alloy collars (ASNA2028, DAN11, NSA5075 and
NSA5075W) are used, an out of parallel condition up to 3.0 degrees is acceptable.
2 When standard CRS collars (ABS0258, ASNA2036, DAN12, HL73, HL86 and and
HL87) are used, an out of parallel condition up to 0.5 degree only is acceptable.

above are not applicable to the wing structure. For the wing structure the
conditions that follow are applicable:
4 When standard steel nuts are used spot facing (Refer to Chapter 51-46-12) is
necessary when the outer surfaces are more than 0.5 degree out of parallel.
5 When standard aluminum alloy nuts are used spot facing (Refer to Chapter 51-46-
12) is necessary as follows:
- for 5/16 in (8.0 mm) diameter pin (Threaded) and the outer surfaces are more
than 1.5 degrees out of parallel.
- for 3/8 in (9.5 mm) and larger diameter pin (Threaded) and the outer surfaces
are more than 1.0 degree out of parallel.
(d) Pins (Threaded) and collars are usually supplied lubricated and this lubricant must not be
removed.
(e) Pin (Threaded) fasteners are HI-LOK (HL) type are used for installation in clearance and
transition fit holes unless otherwise specified in a repair procedure. A clearance fit hole is
used (unless otherwise specified) if one or more of the structural members to be attached
are made of:
- steel,
- stainless steel,
- titanium.
For installation in interference fit holes Pin (Threaded) HI-LITE (HST) and HI-TIGUE
(HLT) are used.
(f) Before the installation of pin (Threaded) fasteners, make sure that:
- all the necessary pins and collars or nuts are of the correct type,
- the pins and collars or nuts are made of the correct material,
- the pins and collars or nuts have the correct surface protection and/or lubrication,
- the pins have the correct grip length,
- the thread of the pin has the same diameter as the collar or nut applicable to the pin.
(g) Install the pin (Threaded) fasteners with power or hand tools (Refer to Figure 011, Figure
012 and Figure 013).
(h) The correct hand tools are available from the various manufacturers of pins (threaded), an
example is shown in Figure 012. But a hand tool can be made locally with a ratchet
handle tool made of hardened steel. It is necessary to modify this tool as follows:
- remove the ball in the square drive,
- drill a hole, necessary for the Allen wrench, of the correct size through the ratchet
handle (Refer to Figure 011).

(2) Installation
(a) General
1 Before the installation of pin (Threaded) fasteners, make sure that all holes are
clean, smooth and deburred (Refer to Chapter 51-44-00).

NOTE: Use the next oversize fastener to repair a damaged or oversized hole
(Refer to Chapters Chapter 51-43-00 and Chapter 51-43-11).
2 There are four types of pin (Threaded) fasteners. These types are:
- pin (Threaded) with protruding head, for shear application only,
- pin (Threaded) with 100 ° countersunk head, for shear application only,
- pin (Threaded) with protruding head, for tension and shear application,
- pin (Threaded) with 100 ° countersunk head, for tension and shear
application.
3 The part number or the pin (Threaded) is indented on the head. Details of the
complete identification number are given in Chapter 51-40-12.
4 A pin (Threaded) collar is fully identified with the subsequent data:
- the part number,
- the material code,
- the material finish code,
- the color,
- the washer type (if applicable),
- the washer material (if applicable),
- the washer material finish (if applicable).
There are many different types of collars used with pins (Threaded). There is no
part number on these collars, thus they must be kept in separate containers. The
containers must be marked with the applicable part numbers.

NOTE: Some oversize collars are also identified by a groove. This groove can be
around the hexagonal or near the collar seat.
(b) Installation with Hand Tools and Power Tools (Clearance Fit)
1 Make sure that all fastener holes in the repair are correctly prepared (Refer to
Chapter 51-44-00, Chapter 51-46-00, Chapter 51-48-00).
2 Measure the total thickness of the items to be riveted. This gives you the correct
grip length of the pin (Refer to Figure 014).
3 Install the correct pin/collar assembly as shown in Figure 013. For a wet installation,
refer to Chapter 51-76-11.

NOTE: Before you use a pneumatic tool make sure that the accessibility and the
position of the pin (Threaded) fastener assembly to be installed, and the
overall dimensions of the tool permits the use of the pneumatic tool. The
types of tools and their different possibilities are shown in Figure 015.
(c) Installation with Hand Tools and Power Tools (Interference Fit)

1 Make sure that all fastener holes in the repair are correctly prepared (Refer to
Chapter 51-44-00, Chapter 51-46-00, Chapter 51-48-00).
2 Measure the total thickness of the items to be riveted. This gives you the correct
grip length of the pin (Refer to Figure 014).
3 To install pins in prepared interference-fit holes, do the steps that follow:
a Carefully put the threaded portion of the pin in the prepared hole and make
sure that the pin is aligned correctly.

CAUTION: MAKE SURE THAT THE CORRECT BACK-UP DOLLY (IT MUST
HAVE THE NECESSARY RECESS TO ACCEPT THE THREADED
PORTION OF THE PIN) IS PUT BEHIND THE WORK AREA TO
PREVENT DISTORTION OF THE STRUCTURE.
b Carefully hit the pin into the hole until it is fully seated. Do this with a
pneumatic hammer or composite head mallet.
4 Install the correct collar as shown in Figure 013. For a wet installation, refer to
Chapter 51-76-11.

NOTE: Before you use a pneumatic tool make sure that the accessibility and the
position of the pin (Threaded) and the overall dimensions of the tool
permits the use of the pneumatic tool. The types of tools and their
different possibilities are shown in Figure 015.
(d) Where it is necessary (for example, because of limited access) to install a self-locking nut
and a washer on the pin, do the steps that follow:
1 Put the washer and the nut on the pin.
2 Hold the pin with an Allen wrench (Refer to Figure 011 and Figure 012).
3 Tighten the nut. Do this until the nut is fully seated and the gaps between the parts
are closed and apply the correct torque value (Refer to Chapter 51-49-00).
(3) Inspection after Installation of Pin (Threaded) Fasteners
(a) Visual Inspection
1 Examine the pin head and the local area surface around the head for signs of the
subsequent damage:
- scoring and dents,
- damage, caused when the head is hit (dishing),
- peripheral cracks and condition of the cadmium plating on the head, where
applicable,
- an incorrect seat of the head and/or collar.
2 Scoring and dents are permitted if they are within the limits given below:
- no sharp edges or corners are permitted,
- the depth of damage must not be more than 0.1 mm (0.004 in).
3 A slight separation of the pin head seat is permitted, if it is within in the subsequent
limits:

(4) Pin (Threaded) Fastener - Removal

CAUTION: TAKE CARE NOT TO CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE SURFACE OF THE


MATERIAL, OR THE HOLE, WHEN YOU DO THE PROCEDURES THAT
FOLLOW.
(a) Removal from Clearance Fit Holes (Refer to Figure 021)
1 Only use hand tools to remove these fasteners from clearance fit holes. Use the
procedure that follows to remove the fasteners:
a Insert the correct Allen wrench into the hexagonal recess in the pin end.
b Use the Allen wrench to prevent the pin turning, and with pliers (or similar
gripping tool), turn the collar counter-clockwise until it is removed.
c Remove the Allen wrench and push the pin out of the hole.
2 You can use the pin again if:
- the pin finish is not damaged,
- the threads and hexagonal recess are in good condition.
(b) Removal from Interference Fit Holes (Refer to Figure 021)

CAUTION: THE DIAMETER OF THE PIN PUNCH MUST BE LESS THAN THE
FASTENER DIAMETER.
1 Pin (Threaded) fasteners can be removed from interference fit holes using the
procedure in Paragraph
2.
.

2 An alternative procedure is given below:

NOTE: You are recommended to use the applicable power tools where possible
for this procedure, especially if many fasteners are to be removed.
a Loosen the collar until the fastener thread is in line with end of the collar.
b Support the structure around the fastener head.
c Hit the end of the collar with a composite headed mallet. This is to break the
bond between the fastener and the structure.
d Position the removal tool over the collar. Apply a steady hand pressure and
operate the tool to remove the collar. Discard the collar.

CAUTION: THE DIAMETER OF THE PIN PUNCH MUST BE LESS THAN THE
FASTENER DIAMETER.
e Support the structure around the fastener head and hit the fastener out with a
parallel pin punch and hammer. Discard the fastener.
(c) In some cases (for example, limited access or a damaged collar), it may be necessary to
remove Pin (Threaded) Fasteners by drilling the head off and removing the shank and
collar. Use standard procedures to do this. If the fastener is made of titanium you will need
to make sure that:
- you use a slow drill speed,
- you apply a constant steady hand pressure to the drill.
This is to prevent the twist-drill tip overheating.

NOTE: You can use standard high-speed twist-drills to drill titanium fasteners. But the
tip of the twist-drill must be re-ground to an angle of 80°, and with a point
clearance of 5°.
(5) Re-torquing loose fasteners

NOTE: This procedure is only applicable to the wing fasteners listed.


(a) ASNA pins and ABS or NSA nuts.
1 Clearance fit fasteners
a Apply sealant around the fastener head.
b Re-torque tighten the fastener (for ABS nuts refer to Chapter 51-49-00 Table
12 and for NSA nuts refer to Chapter 51-49-00 Table 9)
c Check the bolt protrusion to the dimensions in Table 16. A gauge, obtained
from the manufacturer, may be used in accordance with the procedure
shown in Figure 020. If the protrusion exceeds the maximum limit, wet install
an additional washer with a new nut (Refer to

G. Pin (Threaded) (Bullnose)
(1) General
(a) The pin (Threaded) (Bullnose) is a cylindrical pin fastener. It is available with a protruding
or countersunk head.
(b) The fastener has an hexagonal recess in the threaded end. This is used to assist you to
hold the fastener when you remove or install the nut/collar that is used with the fastener.
(c) The fastener is available in steel or titanium material.
(d) The Bull Nose feature of the fastener is shown in Figure 022.
(e) The fasteners are secured with standard self-locking nuts or collars.
(f) The fasteners are delivered pre-lubricated. Do not handle these fasteners more than is
necessary. Do not degrease them.
(g) These fasteners are installed in interference, transition or clearance fit holes.
(h) It is recommended that only trained operators prepare the holes and install these
fasteners.
(2) Hole Preparation
(a) General
1 The holes for these fasteners must be prepared to give the correct fit and to a good
standard. They are prepared in three stages, these are:
a Drill a pilot-hole (Refer to Chapter 51-44-00).
b First stage boring by twist-drill or reamer.
c Final boring by a reamer.

NOTE: These stages only apply to new holes, for example, when you do a
repair. For a hole that already exists it is only necessary to increase
it to the correct oversize diameter.

2 The Final Hole Diameter tolerances are given in Chapter 51-44-00.


(b) When you drill or ream the holes for these fasteners you are recommended to use a
drilling jig or an equivalent tool. This will help you to make sure that the hole is
perpendicular through the material.
(c) Only use twist-drills and reamers that are sharp and in good condition. This will make sure
that the holes are accurate and to a good condition.
(3) Hole Preparation Procedure
(a) You are recommended to use soluble oil or paraffin to lubricate the twist-drills and
reamers when you are preparing the holes.
(b) Refer to Chapter 51-44-00 (Hole and Drill data), and select the correct size twist-drill for
the pilot-hole. Drill the pilot-holes.

NOTE: In a repair procedure or other special circumstances, you can be given a pilot-
hole diameter that does not agree with the information in Chapter 51-44-00. In
this case use the alternative diameter.
(c) Do the first stage boring. You can use one of two methods to do this, these are:
1 With a twist-drill drill a hole that is approximately 0.05 mm (0.002 in) smaller than
the final hole.
2 With a reamer make a hole that is approximately 0.3 mm (0.012 in) smaller than the
final hole.

NOTE: After you have done this stage the entry to the hole must permit the use of
the final stage tool. You must be able to enter the final stage tool for at
least 1.0 mm (0.039 in).
(d) Carefully ream the holes to the final diameters that are given in Chapter 51-44-00.

NOTE: The surface roughness of the inner-face of the holes must be less than 1.6
micrometers (63 microinches).
(e) Deburr and radius or chamfer the entry and exit edges of the holes (Refer to Chapter 51-
44-00 ).
(f) Check the final diameter of the holes with the applicable limit plug gage.
(4) Selection of Fastener Length
(a) You can use one of two methods that follow to find the correct length of the fastener
required:
1 Method 1. Refer to Figure 023 for the information how to use a griplength gage and
the relevant fastener data.
2 Method 2.
a Measure the thickness of the materials that are to be fastened. Use suitable
precision tools to do this.

Refer to Figure 023 Sheet 3 and select a fastener of the correct length to fit
the tolerance given.
(5) Fastener Installation Procedure
The procedure that follows is applicable to steel or titanium fasteners.
(a) Put the repair pieces into their correct position. Secure them with temporary bolts or grip-
pins.

NOTE: Because the final fasteners will be hammered into position, you are
recommended to secure the materials through at least 50 % of the holes. This is
to stop a gap forming between the materials.

CAUTION: IT IS IMPORTANT THAT YOU MAKE SURE THAT THE FASTENER IS


PERPENDICULAR TO THE HOLE BEFORE YOU HAMMER IT IN.
(b) Put the fastener in the hole and hammer it in until the head is seated on the material. To
do this you can use a standard pneumatic hammer, either single or multi-hit. Use a rivet
set (snap) of a size that will not damage the fastener head or the material.

NOTE: Install all fasteners "wet" unless instructed differently in a repair procedure.
Refer to Chapter 51-76-11 for sealing information.
(c) If applicable refer to Table 17 and select the correct washer. Because of the Bull Nose
feature of this fastener it is important that you only use washers of the correct thickness
and internal diameter. If necessary two washers can be used to get the correct thickness,
but do not use washers of 0.4 mm (0.016 in) thickness or less.

NOTE: It is recommended that you only use aluminum alloy washers. But steel washers
can be used without special authorization if aluminum alloy washers are not
available. Do not use a mixture of washer materials on the same fastener.
(d) Put the applicable nut/collar on to the fastener. Tighten the nut to the correct torque value
(Refer to Chapter 51-49-00).

NOTE: If the type of nut/collar is not specified in the repair procedure select one that is
suitable from the list that follows:
ABS 0117 Nut, self-locking, counterbored ABS 0118 Nut, self-locking, self-sealing,
counterbored NSA 5050 Nut, self-locking) NSA 5472 Nut, self-locking ) with captive
washer NAS 1726 Nut, self-locking ) NSA 5474 Nut, self-locking, chamfered end) NSA
5151 Nut, self-locking, self-aligning) for use on non NAS 1727 Nut, self-locking, self-
aligning) parallel surfaces.
(6) Inspection After Installation (Refer to Figure 024)
(a) After you have installed Bull Nose fasteners examine them for signs of the conditions
which follow:
1 Dishing of the head (countersunk fasteners).
2 Incorrect seating of the fastener head and nut/collar.
3 Incorrect threaded end protrusion.

(7) Removal of Bull Nose Fasteners
(a) There are two methods that you can use to remove a Bull Nose fastener, these are:
1 If you have good access to the threaded end of the fastener use a Taper Knockout
Tool.
2 If you do not have good access use an extractor tool.
(b) Both of these methods are given in Paragraph
2.
.
H.
of this Chapter.

NOTE: The removed Bull Nose pin and nut or collar must be discarded. You are not
permitted to re-use them.
(8) Further Information
When a Bull Nose fastener is removed further action to the hole is necessary as follows:
(a) Interference Fit Hole. Prepare the hole for an oversize fastener (Refer to Chapter 51-44-00
). Two stages of oversize fastener are available (Refer to Chapter 51-43-00).
(b) Transition Fit Hole. Measure the hole diameter. If the diameter is within the permitted
tolerances (Refer to Chapter 51-44-00) and in good condition, a replacement standard
fastener can be used. If the diameter is outside the permitted tolerances, the hole must be
prepared for an oversize fastener (Refer to Chapter 51-43-00).
(c) Clearance Fit Hole. If the hole condition is good no further action is necessary. If the hole
condition is not acceptable it must be prepared for an oversize fastener (Refer to Chapter
51-43-00).
H. Taper Fasteners

NOTE: For oversize installation, always use a washer under the nut to prevent clashing of the nut
with the shank of the bolt, unless the nut has the capability to be used with oversized bolt.

(1) General
(a) A taper fastener is a tapered bolt with a threaded end and a selflocking nut. The nut is
also threaded and includes its own washer. The use of this fastener is almost the same as
that of a standard nut and bolt (Refer to Figure 034).
(b) The taper fasteners are used in those areas of the structure where a high fatigue
performance is required. The taper fastener helps to achieve this performance because it
has a constant interference-fit in the tapered hole in the structure. This causes a good
compression of the structure material around the fastener hole, and a balanced stress
pattern (Refer to Figure 025).
1 When a taper group is changed for a given diameter:
- the height of the head does not change,
- the diameter of the head changes,
- the diameter of the under-head radius changes.
2 Repair sizes of taper are one group higher than the nominal size:
- R1 # Group + 1
- R2 # Group + 2

NOTE: Diameter + measured grip # taper group number. There are five groups of
nominal sizes. Each group corresponds to a different reamer (reamers
can also be designed to cover several groups).
(c) An additional feature of the taper fastener is the good sealing effect that is given by the
tapered interference fit.

Table 20 - Relation Grip Length / Group Number for Nominal and Oversize Taper
(d) The taper of the bolt and the hole to which it is fitted, is small. It is only 6.35 mm (0.250 in)
for each linear 305 mm (12.008 in), a ratio of 1 in 48.
(e) The taper bolt is a light bolt with a good strength property. Bolts are available for tension
or shear uses.
(f) Taper bolts are usually supplied with a special lubricant on them. The special lubricant
must not be removed before the bolt is installed.
(g) Before the taper bolts are installed in a repair, make sure that:
- they are made of the correct material,
- they have the correct type of head,
- they are of the correct diameter,
- they are of the correct grip length,
- the nuts are of the correct type (Refer to Paragraph
2.
.

(u)
).
(h) It is very important to tightly clamp the parts together when they are prepared for the
installation of taper bolts.
(i) Taper bolts can be installed with hand or power tools.
(j) It is very important to prepare the hole for a taper bolt to the highest possible precision. If
this is not done, it could have a bad effect on the fatigue of the structure.

(k) It is recommended that only trained and approved personnel prepare the holes for taper
bolts.
(l) Special tools, for example, drill-reamers, hole/countersink gages and head protrusion
gages, are available. Only these tools should be used to ensure the necessary precision.
These tools must be kept in a satisfactory condition. Drill reamers must not be re-
sharpened by the operator; they must be returned to the manufacturer for re-sharpening.
(m) Before you install taper bolts, makes sure that all the holes are:
- clean,
- smooth,
- fully deburred at the nut end.
Protruding hole must have a relief radius where the head of the bolt will seat to prevent
damage to the under head radius of the bolt.

NOTE: If a hole, that has been used before, is found damaged or oversize, it must be
repaired to use the correct oversize bolt (Refer to Chapter 51-43-00).
(n) The information on the available types of taper bolts is given in Chapter 51-40-00.
(o) The data given in Figure 027 will help the operator to identify the correct bolt to fit in a hole
of specified dimensions (nominal diameter and grip length).
(p) The taper bolts of different nominal diameters are divided into grip length groups. Thus
bolts of the same nominal diameter can be found for use on materials of different
thicknesses. The part numbers, that are on the head and the end of the bolt, are used to
identify a bolt Figure 027 shows this in detail).
(q) Taper drill reamers are available to prepare a hole for a taper bolt (countersunk or
protruding head). The drill reamers are identified by a part number. This part number
gives the group number and nominal diameter of the bolt to which the drill reamer is
applicable (Refer to Table 22).

NOTE: A commercially available 1:48 hand taper pin reamer may be used hand to finish
or adjust a hole for a taper bolt (Refer to Figure 037).
(r) There are two different types of nuts available for use on taper bolts. They are:
1 Nuts with an attached washer. These are for use where the surfaces of the
materials, that must be fastened, are out of parallel up to 2°.
2 Nuts with a spherically dished washer that is not attached. These must be used
where the material surfaces are out of parallel up to 5° ( 125).

NOTE: On wing structure this limit is 5°.


(s) These nuts do not have their part number engraved on them, thus they must be kept in
different containers. The containers must be marked with the applicable number.
(t) The self-locking property of these nuts is caused by a small elliptical deformation of the nut
/body thread. When the nut is installed on a bolt, the threaded part of the bolt causes the
deformation to change shape. This causes the nut to tightly hold the bolt.

NOTE: These nuts must only be used once.

The correct drill speed for this step is approximately 600 revolutions per minute
(rpm).
(d) For taper drill reamers that have the part number TLD 2030AR or TLD 2040AR
(countersunk head bolts) cut the material in three continuous steps. These are:
- the pilot hole,
- the tapered hole of the correct taper and grip length,
- the correct countersink.
Drill reamers that have the part number TLD 2040BR or TLD 2040BR (protruding head
bolts) only make the pilot hole and the tapered hole of the correct grip length (Refer to
Figure 028).
(e) Put the correct drill reamer in an adjustable taper micro stop cage (Refer to Figure 029).
Adjust the cage to the necessary drill depth. Put the cage in a pneumatic drill machine.

NOTE: The drill machine must be a machine on which the speed can be adjusted from
200 thru 400 rpm. For example, the hole for a bolt of 1/4 in (6.4 mm) nominal
diameter, must be drilled at a speed of approximately 300 rpm.
(f) Do a test drill on a piece of material that is of the same type and thickness as the material
to be fastened. Repeat this step until you have found:
- the necessary drill speed (rpm),
- the necessary drill depth.

NOTE: This information helps to make sure that the hole is to a good finish.

. Make sure:
- that the pilot-hole end of the drill reamer is in the center of the hole,
- that the drill reamer is in line with the vertical axis of the hole.
(h) Start the drill machine and drill the hole. Use the cutting lubricant FREON TB-1, or ICI
ARCTON 113, during this step. Make sure that the drill reamer moves through the
material slowly, but with a constant hand pressure on it.
(i) Stop the drill machine when the drill reamer has reached the depth set on the adjustable
micro stop cage. Carefully remove the drill reamer from the hole.

NOTE: Because of the taper of the hole and the drill reamer, the drill reamer will move
apart from the hole easily.

Select the relevant countersink depth gauge. Put it into countersink hole to assess
the amount of material to be removed to ensure a flush installation. It will be
necessary to remove only a small amount of material for the next oversize.
2 Install the relevant tapered guide into the tapered hole (Refer to Figure 135).
3 Install the 100° countersink cutter in a pneumatic drill machine (Refer to Figure 159
). A low rotation speed for the pneumatic drill machine must be selected for quality
reasons (150-200 rpm).
4 Align the cutter pilot in the tapered guide bushing to control the cutter position.
5 Progressively machine the countersink to the required depth defined by the adapted
countersink depth gauge. Use a cutting lubricant. Machining must be stopped on a
regular basis to check the countersink dimension with the countersink depth gauge
(Refer to Figure 136).

NOTE: This step is essential to guarantee the correct final dimension of the
countersink. Take care not to exceed the required dimension.
(k) Under-Head Chamfer Machining (For Countersunk and Protruding Head Taper).
1 Manually machine the under-head chamfer slightly using the 60° or 90° countersink
cutter keeping a good alignment of the tool and hole axis.
2 Visual confirmation is considered as sufficient for approximate values specified in
Table 20. The objective of the chamfer is to avoid sharp edges and stress
concentration below fastener heads.
(l) Deburr all the edges of the holes.
(m) Do the steps that follow on all the prepared holes to make sure that they have the correct
interference fit.

NOTE: All steps must be done in conjunction with protrusion check (Refer to paragraph

.
(d)
).
1 Apply a layer of engineers blue or prussian blue to the face of the applicable plug
gage (Refer to Figure 031) or a taper fastener of proper dimensions.
2 Put the plug gage into the hole and lightly hit it (use a composite head mallet to do
this). Do this until only 25 % of the length of the shank is visible (measured from the
bottom face of the plug gage head to the top face of the material).
3 Carefully hit the end of the plug gage to free the plug gage from the hole.

Take care not to change the marks in the engineers blue on the plug gage
by rotating the gage when you do this step.
4 Look at the marks in the engineers blue on the shank of the plug gage. If the marks
show:
a That 60 % or more of the plug gage shank touched the face of the hole
(Refer to Figure 032), the hole is satisfactory.
b That less than 60 % of the plug gage shank touched the face of the hole, you
must hand ream the hole (Refer to Paragraph
2.

.
(3)
).

NOTE: Take care to ensure that the bolt protrusion limits are maintained
(Refer to Figure 033).
(3) Use of Hand Reamers
(a) The use of a hand reamer is permitted if it is necessary to improve the face of a hole or to
reduce the maximum protrusion.

NOTE: Hand reaming may be done using a commercially available 1:48 hand taper pin
reamer (Refer to Figure 037). For example, DORMER part number B301,
available in nominal inch sizes 1/16 to 7/8.
(b) When it is necessary to use a hand reamer, the subsequent steps must be done after
each use:
1 Deburr the edges of the hole.
2 If it is applicable, make sure that the countersink is correct (Refer to Paragraph
2.
.

(4) Oversize Taper Fasteners
(a) This procedure defines general operations to oversize taper to R1 or R2. If it is necessary
to create a tapered hole starting from a hole, then specific adaptations are required.
(b) Tools and Material

NOTE: Re-grinding of tools can only be handled by the tooling manufacturer. Tools
should not be re-ground by operators. Handle the tools carefully to prevent them
from falling.
NOTE: Contact the tooling manufacturer to order tooling with appropriate part numbers
and following data: - Original taper data (head-and bolt end marking), - Repair
taper data (head-and bolt end marking), - Access constrains (could influence
reamer length), - Tools part number last digit figure in tool designation, when
required, corresponds to an attachment code. It will be defined by the
manufacturer itself.

NOTE: This step will familiarize the operator with tools and method. A test specimen per
tool drawing 98D571030010000 can be used.
3 Progressive hole reaming with regular protrusion checking using the repair taper:
a Put the final repair taper into the original hole to assess the amount of
material to be reamed.
b Put the reamer accurately over the hole. Make sure that the reamer is in line
with the vertical axis of the hole.
c Progressively ream the hole. Use a cutting lubricant during this step. Make
sure that the drill reamer moves through the material slowly, but with a
constant hand pressure applied in the axis of the hole. Regularly stop
reaming to remove metallic chips and check the repair taper protrusion. To
do this check, install the repair taper in the cleaned hole. The measured
protrusion must be within the range indicated in Figure 133. That defines
when reaming is finished.

NOTE: Keep on rotating the reamer in the same direction when removing
the reamer from the hole for quality reasons.
d Deburr the edges of the hole (entry and exit side) then clean and dry the hole
to remove chips and grease that could affect next measurement.
e Do the steps that follow on all the prepared holes to make sure that they
have the correct interference fit.
- If available, install the plug gauge into the Blueing Gauge Holder BGH-
***.
- Attach the Blueing Gauge Holder BGH-*** to the hammering tool
HAMT-5.
- Apply a layer of engineers blue or prussian blue to the face of the
applicable plug gauge.
- Put the Blueing Gauge into the hole and lightly tap it with the
hammering tool.
- Carefully extract the plug gauge from the hole with the hammering tool.

NOTE: Take care not to change the marks in the engineers blue on the
plug gauge when you perform this step.
- Look at the marks in the engineers blue on the shank of the plug
gauge. If the marks show that:
60% or more of the plug gauge shank touched the face of the hole, the
hole is satisfactory,
less than 60% of the plug gauge shank touched the face of the hole,
slightly manually re-machine the hole to get the correct quality. The
minimum bolt protrusion must be fulfilled (Refer to Figure 032 and 127).
- If reading is difficult (too much Prussian Blue used for example), then
clean the hole and the gauge and perform the verification again.

(7) Taper Fastener - Removal Procedures
Before removing any taper, record locations and taper references (head and opposite side
marking) to assist in the selection of the repair taper.
One of two procedures can be used to remove taper fasteners; these procedures are given
below. Where possible, use procedure
2.

(a)
.
(a) Procedure 1
1 Remove and discard the nut. Do this with the correct socket tool.
2 Put the correct taper knock-out tool (Refer to Figure 038) on the thread of the bolt.
Make sure that the tool correctly engages the bolt thread and is fully turned onto the
bolt.
3 Hit out the bolt. To do this, hit the end of the knock-out tool with a hammer, this will
cause the bolt to move apart from the hole.

CAUTION: TAKE CARE NOT TO DAMAGE THE BOLT HEAD WHEN YOU DO THIS
STEP.
4 Hold the bolt head (if necessary, pliers can be used, but obey the caution given
above), remove the knock-out tool from the bolt.
5 Carefully remove the bolt from the hole.

NOTE: For bolt reuse, refer to Chapter 51-49-00.


(b) Procedure 2
In this procedure a locally made extraction tool is used. Figure 039 shows this tool. This
tool uses a standard bolt. The standard bolt must be correct for the dimensions of the
taper bolt that is to be removed.
1 Drill a hole of the correct dimensions into the shank of the taper bolt. Do this from
the head end of the bolt.
2 Cut a thread into the inner surface of the hole made in step
2.

socket tool.

CAUTION: MAKE SURE THAT THE BRIDGE OF THE EXTRACTION TOOL DOES
NOT DAMAGE THE STRUCTURE SURFACE.
5 Turn the nut on the standard bolt to remove the taper bolt from the structure.
6 Remove the taper bolt from the extraction bolt. Discard the taper bolt.
I. Rivet (Blind) (HUCK)
(1) General (Refer to Figure 040)
(a) In this paragraph the Rivet (Blind) (HUCK) is referred to as the HUCK rivet.
(b) The HUCK rivet consists of three parts. These are:
1 A tubular body that has a protruding or 100 ° countersunk head.
2 A mandrel (shank) that is retained in the tubular body. When the HUCK rivet is
installed, the mandrel is mechanically secured within the tubular body and is
sheared off level with the rivet head.
3 A locking collar that is retained on the mandrel before installation. The installation
tool pushes the collar into a locking groove during installation. This secures the
mandrel in the body.
(c) When installed the HUCK rivet is similar to a 'pop' rivet. But because the mandrel is
retained in the tubular body, this rivet has almost the same properties as a solid rivet. The
HUCK rivet can be installed from one side of a repair or surface.
(d) The HUCK rivet is identified by an identification number. This number and its specific
details are explained in Chapter 51-40-12.
(e) The HUCK rivet can be installed with hand or power operated tools.
(f) HUCK rivets must only be used to replace HUCK rivets, or when called up in a specific
repair procedure or other approved documents.
(g) Before you install HUCK rivets make sure that:
- you have the correct type of rivet,
- the rivets are made of the required material,
- the rivets have the specified surface protection, and that they are not corroded or
scratched,

- the rivets are the correct grip length and diameter,


- the holes for the rivets are correctly prepared (Refer to Chapter 51-44-00).
(h) Before you install HUCK rivets in the structure you are recommended to make a test
piece. This will check the rivet, tool and hole precision. The test materials and rivets must
have the same properties as those required for the repair.
(i) If the correct size for a replacement HUCK rivet is not known, do the steps that follow:
1 Accurately measure the diameter of the hole. Refer to Chapter 51-44-00, if the
diameter of the hole is within the tolerances for a standard rivet, use a rivet of this
diameter. If the diameter of the hole is not within the tolerances, increase the hole
diameter to suit an oversize rivet if applicable, or the next standard size.
2 Measure the total thickness of the material at the hole. Refer to Figure 041, Figure
042, Figure 043, Figure 044 and Figure 045 as applicable to find the rivet of the
correct grip-length to suit the material thickness.

NOTE: If the type of HUCK rivet can not be identified, contact AIRBUS.

(2) Installation
(a) The steps that follow give the general sequence for the installation of a HUCK rivet.
1 Put the rivet in its hole. Make sure that the locking collar is in its correct position.
2 Put the applicable installation tool onto the rivet mandrel. Make sure that the tool is
perpendicular to the surface of the material.

CAUTION: OBEY THE MANUFACTURER'S INSTRUCTIONS WHEN USING A


POWER OPERATED TOOL. SOME DOUBLE ACTION TOOLS HAVE A
SHIFT VALVE CARTRIDGE THAT MUST BE ADJUSTED TO A
SPECIFIC PRESSURE BEFORE USE.
3 Operate the installation tool. This:
- forms the upset head,
- seats the locking collar into the locking groove,
- shears the mandrel at the break-off groove.
4 Release the tool trigger and remove the tool from the rivet head. The broken off part
of the mandrel is automatically pushed out of the tool.
5 If required, mill the mandrel at the break-off groove to give a smooth finish.
6 Inspect the HUCK rivet for correct installation (Refer to Paragraph
2.
.
I.
.
(3)
).
(3) Inspection after the Installation of HUCK Rivets
(a) General
1 Carefully examine the installed rivets.
2 A visual inspection of the correct shape of the formed (blind) side with a probe light
and a mirror is necessary when the access is possible.
3 The installation of the HUCK rivet is correct when:

J. Rivet-Blind (AVDEL MBC)
(1) General (Refer to Figure 052)
(a) In this paragraph the Rivet - Blind (AVDEL MBC) is referred to as the AVDEL rivet.
(b) The AVDEL rivet consists of two parts. These are:
1 A tubular body that has a protruding or 100 ° countersunk head.
2 A mandrel (shank) that is retained in the tubular body. When the AVDEL rivet is
installed the mandrel is mechanically secured within the tubular body and is
sheared off level with rivet head.
(c) When installed the AVDEL rivet is similar to a 'pop' rivet. But because the mandrel is
retained in the tubular body this rivet has almost the same properties as a solid rivet. The
AVDEL rivet can be installed from one side.
(d) The AVDEL rivet is identified by an identification number. This number and its specific
details are explained in Chapter 51-40-12.
(e) AVDEL rivets can be installed with standard 'pop' rivet tools, or with AVDEL power or
hand operated tools.
(f) AVDEL rivets must only be used to replace AVDEL rivets, or when they are called up in a
specific repair procedure or other approved documents.

(g) AVDEL rivets are supplied already lubricated. Do not remove the lubricant or touch the
rivets more than is necessary.
(h) Before you install AVDEL rivets makes sure that:
- you have the correct type of rivet,
- the rivets are made of the required material,
- the rivets have the specified surface protection and/or lubrication,
- and that they are not corroded or scratched,
- the rivets are the correct length and diameter,
- the holes for the rivets are correctly prepared.
(i) Before you install AVDEL rivets in the structure you are recommended to make a test-
piece. This will check the rivet, tool and hole precision. The test materials and rivets must
have the same properties as those required for the repair.
(2) AVDEL Rivet Installation
(a) The procedure that follows is applicable to installation with hand or power operated tools.
(b) Make sure that the rivets are the correct dimensions (diameter and length). If these
dimensions are not known use the procedure that follows:
1 Accurately measure the diameter of the hole. Refer to Chapter 51-44-00, if the
diameter of the hole is within the tolerances for a standard rivet, use a rivet of this
diameter. If the diameter of the hole is not within the tolerances, increase the hole
diameter to suit an oversize rivet if applicable, or the next standard size.
2 Refer to Figure 053 to find the required length of the rivet.
(c) Make sure that the installation tool is correct for the rivet dimensions and head shape.
(d) Insert the rivet mandrel fully into the installation tool.
(e) Insert the rivet body fully into the hole. Make sure that the installation tool nose is
perpendicular to the material surface.
(f) Operate the tool to complete the installation of the rivet.
(g) Remove the installation tool and make sure that the rivet is installed correctly.

NOTE: If the mandrel protrudes from the rivet head the mandrel can be milled flush.
(3) Inspection after Installation
(a) General
1 Carefully examine the installed rivets as far as possible.

NOTE: You are recommended to use inspection aids, for example, probe light
and mirror, to examine the 'blind' head.
2 The AVDEL rivet is correctly installed when:
- the mandrel is correctly installed,
- the manufactured head is correctly seated,
- the 'blind' head is correctly shaped,
- the surrounding structure is free from damage and distortion.

K. Rivet-Blind (IMEX)
Refer to Figure 056
(1) General
(a) The IMEX blind rivet consists of two parts. These are:
1 A tubular body that has a protruding or 100 ° countersunk head.
2 A mandrel that is retained in the tubular body. When the rivetblind (IMEX) is
installed the mandrel is mechanically secured within the tubular body and is
sheared off at the break off groove (Refer to Figure 056).
(b) The IMEX blind rivet is similar to a 'pop' rivet. The only difference is that the sealed body
end completely encloses the head of the mandrel.
(c) Mandrels are available as short break or long break types. The long break type breaks off
above the level of the rivet head and must be milled flush. The short break type breaks off
internally in the tubular body.
(d) The IMEX blind rivet has an identification number. This number and its specific details are
explained in Chapter 51-40-12.

(b) Acceptance Limits
1 Due to the varying degrees of functional importance of installed IMEX blind rivets,
acceptance or rejection is mostly at the discretion of the inspector.
2 As a general guide, reject loose or cracked rivets.
(4) Removal of Rivets-Blind (IMEX) (Refer to Figure 060)
(a) The removal of IMEX blind rivets is achieved by first removing the manufactured head
then driving the remainder of the rivet out of its hole.
(b) If the rivet has a long break mandrel, support the rivet with dolly or similar. Then
accurately center punch the mandrel to provide location for the twist-drill tip (Refer to
Figure 060).
(c) Rivets with short break mandrels have a central cavity which can serve as a pilot hole for
the twist-drill.

CAUTION: TAKE CARE NOT TO CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE SURFACE OF THE


MATERIAL, OR THE HOLE, WHEN YOU DO THE PROCEDURES THAT
FOLLOW.

CAUTION: IF THE RIVET TURNS DURING DRILLING OPERATIONS, DAMAGE CAN BE


CAUSED TO THE SKIN/HOLE.
(d) With a twist-drill of the same nominal diameter as the rivet drill almost through the head. It
is recommended that a mechanical stop is used on the twist-drill to control the depth
drilled.
(e) With a parallel pin punch remove the rivet head.

(f) With a parallel pin punch and hammer hit out the remainder of the rivet body. The parallel
pin punch diameter must be slightly less than the nominal diameter of the rivet, but greater
than the rivet inner diameter. Support the structure on the underside during this step.
L. Rivet-Blind (CHERRYMAX)
(1) General (Refer to Figure 061)
(a) There are two types of these blind rivets that you can use for repair work on the aircraft.
These are:
- CHERRYMAX,
- Oversize CHERRYMAX.
(b) These blind rivets are supplied as one piece and consist of three parts:
1 A tubular body that has a head at one end. Two types of head are available: a 100 °
countersunk head and a protruding head.
2 A pin that goes through the body. The pin has a head opposite the body head. It
also has a lock-groove, a break-off groove and pullgrooves. There is also a driving
anvil on the pin. This makes sure that the lock-collar sits correctly, and that the pin
always breaks off at the break-off groove.
3 A lock-collar on the pin. When the blind-rivet is installed, the collar is swaged into
the lock-groove on the pin and in the head. This makes sure that the pin is locked
into the body.
(c) To identify the correct blind-rivet for a repair, or a replacment, refer to Chapter 51-40-12.
(d) These blind rivets are supplied with a layer of lubricant on them. Do not clean them, or
touch them more than is necessary, before they are installed.
(e) Do not install blind rivets that are not in a satisfactory condition. Discard any that are not.
(f) You can use hand or power operated tools to install blind rivets. These tools must have
the correct heads attached to them.
(g) It is recommended that you do a test procedure on some unwanted materials before you
install blind rivets. Do the test on materials that are the same (type and thickness) as the
repair materials. Use blind rivets that are the same (head type, diameter and grip-length),
as those for the repair.
(h) After you have installed a blind rivet, the end of the pin can be above the rivet head. You
can mill the pin until it is in line with the top of the rivet head.
(2) Hole Preparation
(a) The holes for blind rivets are only drill-finished. It is not necessary to ream them.
(b) Before you install a blind rivet, you must examine the hole to make sure that:
- it is clean,
- it has no burrs,
- it is not damaged.
(c) Refer to Chapter 51-44-00 to find the correct dimensions for the hole.
(d) Do these steps if a hole is damaged, or if a new hole is necessary.

1 Use grip-pins or clamps to make sure that the repair materials are correctly
clamped together.
2 Drill a pilot-hole in the correct position.
3 Drill the hole to the correct final dimension.
4 Deburr the hole.
(3) Selection of the Blind Rivet (Refer to Figure 062).
(a) Accurately measure the diameter of the hole. Refer to Chapter 51-44-00, if the diameter of
the hole is within the tolerances for a standard rivet, use a rivet of this diameter. If the
diameter if the hole is not within the tolerances, increase the hole diameter to suit an
oversize rivet if applicable, or the next standard size.
(b) Find the grip-length that is necessary for the total thickness of the materials to be
attached. Use one of the two subsequent procedures to do this:
- Use standard equipment to measure the total thickness of
- the materials. This will give you the second dash number of the blind rivet part
number (Refer to Figure 062).
- Use a CHERRYLOCK grip-length gauge. This will give you the second dash
number.
(4) Installation Procedure

CAUTION: IF THE RIVET TURNS DURING DRILLING OPERATIONS, DAMAGE CAN BE


CAUSED TO THE SKIN/HOLE.
(a) Get the correct installation tool. Make sure that the tool has the correct driving
attachments for the type and diameter of the blind rivet.

NOTE: A supply of air under pressure is necessary for power operated installation tools.
(b) Clamp the repair materials so that all the holes are aligned.
(c) Put the blind rivet in the hole.

NOTE: If a 'wet assembly' is necessary, or is specified, refer to Chapter 51-76-11.


(d) Put the installation tool on the blind rivet. Make sure that the blind rivet is correctly seated
on the material face. Operate the tool to install the blind rivet.

NOTE: The broken part of the pin is automatically pushed out of the tool when the
installation operation is completed.

N. Pin (Swaged) (LOCKBOLT)
(1) General
(a) A pin (swaged) fastener is a two piece assembly consisting of:
1 A pin with a protruding or countersunk head. The shank of the pin includes grooves
on to which a collar is swaged, a tension break-off groove and pull-grooves. The
pull-grooves are only used for installing the pin (swaged) (Refer to Figure 071).
2 A collar that is swaged on to the locking grooves on the pin shank to secure the pin
(swaged) when it is installed (Refer to Figure 072)

NOTE: It is important that the collars are put on the pins with the collar facing the
correct way.
(b) Only corrosion resistant steel (CRS) or titanium pins (swaged) are used for repair work.
(c) A correctly installed pin (swaged) gives a strong but light weight fastener, and they are
available for tension or shear requirements (Refer to Figure 071).

Pins (swaged) are installed in clearance and transition-fit holes when they are used to
repair steel or titanium structure.
(e) Pins (swaged) are installed in clearance-fit holes in structures that are a combination of
aluminum alloy and steel or titanium, unless otherwise specified in a repair procedure.

NOTE: If the hole size is only given for the steel or titanium in the combination above,
then the hole in the aluminum alloy part is an interference-fit.
(f) Pins (swaged) are supplied lubricated. This lubricant must not be removed before they are
intalled unless otherwise specified in an AIRBUS document.
(g) Repair parts must be temporarily secured with grip-pins or other suitable tools before pins
(swaged) are installed.
(h) Threaded pin fasteners are generally given as alternatives to swaged pin fasteners for the
reasons that follow:
- for swaged pins, special tooling is necessary for the installation,
- for swaged pins, good access is necessary.
When technically acceptable, the alternative part numbers will be called up in Chapter 51-
43-00, Fasteners Oversize and Alternative.
(i) Where pins (swaged) are installed in structure with surfaces that are not parallel, the limits
that follow apply:
- for CRS tension type pins (swaged), an angle up to 7 degrees is acceptable,
- for titanium tension type pins (swaged), an angle up to 5 degrees is acceptable,
except in the wing structure where the limit is 3 degrees,
- for titanium shear type pins (swaged), an angle up to 3 degrees is acceptable.
(j) All cutting tools (for example, drills, reamers and countersinks) used to prepare the hole
for a pin (swaged) must be in good condition. This is necessary to ensure that the surface
of the hole is smooth.
(k) Before installing pins (swaged) make sure that the pins and collars are as specified in the
repair procedure.

NOTE: If it is necessary to replace a pin (swaged) and the pin cannot be identified
contact AIRBUS.
(l) The shank of a pin (swaged) does not expand when the pin is installed, therefore the hole
for the pin must be prepared very accurately.
(m) The collar for pins (swaged) can only be swaged with a suitable power tool.
(n) The various manufacturer's of pins (swaged) and collars use different Part Numbering
methods. It is recommended that these items are stored in containers that show the
applicable part number and type of item.
(o) The identification number for pins (swaged) and collars is given in Chapter 51-40-12.
(p) Unless otherwise specified, pins (swaged) are 'wet installed' with sealant (Refer to
Chapter 51-76-11).

(a) Before you install pins (swaged), make sure that the holes are clean, smooth and
prepared in accordance with Chapter 51-44-00.
(b) When an existing hole is damaged or oversize, it is recommended to install the next
oversize threaded pin, if this is given as an alternative in Chapter 51-43-00. If it is
necessary to install a swaged pin, check access and tool requirements.
(c) If the grip-length is not specified for a pin (swaged) refer to Figure 073.
(3) Hole Preparation
(a) It is recommended that before installing pins (swaged) in the aircraft structure a test
installation is made on suitable test pieces. For this test use:
- materials of the same type and thickness as the repair parts and/or structure,
- pins (swaged) and collars of the same type as those required for the repair.
This test will help to make sure that the final fastener, tool and hole accuracy is obtained.
(b) Accurately mark the position for the pin (swaged) hole, make a mark with a centre punch
at this position.

NOTE: Only use a soft pencil to mark the position on aluminum alloy, and an approved
marker on titanium materials.
(c) Refer to Chapter 51-44-00 to find the applicable final hole diameter and fit required for the
pin (swaged). Use one of the methods that follows to cut the final hole.
1 Method 1.
a Drill an undersize hole with a suitable twist-drill. It is recommended that this
step is done with the drill machine mounted in a drilling jig or tripod. This is to
make sure that the centre-line of the hole is within 2 degrees of the
perpendicular.
b Ream the hole to the required final diameter with a reamer/arbor combination
tool shown in Figure 074.

NOTE: If the final hole is required to be countersunk, use a countersink bit


on the reamer.
c Deburr the hole edges, and cut a relief radius or chamfer as specified in
Chapter 51-44-00.

NOTE: Use cutting lubricant (FREON TB-1 or I.C.I. ARCTON-113) during


the drilling/reaming steps.
2 Method 2.
a Cut the hole in one step with a special drill reamer tool. Use a drilling jig or
tripod to make sure that the centre-line of the hole is within 2 degrees of the
perpendicular.
b If required, countersink the hole (Refer to Chapter 51-46-00).
c Do step of Method 1.
(d) Clean the repair area to remove unwanted lubricant and swarf.

(e) Examine the hole to check that it is clean, smooth and has a good surface finish.
(4) Installation of Pin (Swaged)

CAUTION: REFER TO THE TOOL MANUFACTURERS INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING


A POWER TOOL TO INSTALL/SWAGE THESE PINS AND COLLARS. MAKE
SURE THAT THE TOOL PRESSURE REGULATOR CONTROL IS SET
CORRECTLY (HIGH OR LOW PRESSURE). FAILURE TO DO THIS CAN
CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE PIN AND/OR STRUCTURE.
(a) Three different procedures are used to install pins (swaged). These procedures are
related to the type of fit (interference, transition or clearance) that is required, and the type
of structure (thick or thin) in which the pins (swaged) will be installed. The procedures are
given in Figure 075, Figure 076 and Figure 077 as follows:
1 Interference or transition fit in any structure, refer to Figure 075.
2 Clearance fit in thin structure, refer to Figure 076.
3 Clearance fit in thick structure, refer to Figure 077.
(5) Inspection after Installation of Pin (Swaged) Heads
(a) The limits that follow are applicable to protruding head (also Refer to Figure 078), and
countersunk head (also Refer to Figure 079).
1 More than 50 % of the pins (swaged) in a row or pattern must have fully seated
heads.

NOTE: Fully seated means full metal-to-metal contact between the head and the
fastened material.
2 Less than 50 % of the pins (swaged) in a row or pattern can have a small gap
between the head and the fastened material. In this case there must be a minimum
of 25 % of the head circumference in full contact, and the gap must be within the
limits given in the applicable figure.

NOTE: This gap is not permitted on any two adjacent pins (swaged).
3 It is not permitted to correct the head seating after the collar has been swaged.
4 When the head seating is outside these limits, replace the fastener. In this case, if it
is necessary to install an oversize fastener refer to Chapter 51-43-00 for the
applicable oversize pin.
(6) Inspection of Pin Position and Swaged Collar
(a) After the installation of a pin (swaged) is completed it must be inspected. This inspection
is done visually and with the use of special gages. Figure 081 shows examples of the use
of typical gages. The gage must be held vertical to the material surface and central over
the pin. Refer to Figure 080 if the pin (swaged) is installed through a surface that slopes.
(b) The inspection requires:
1 A visual check that the collar is correctly swaged (Refer to Figure 082).

2 A check (with the gages), that the correct length pin (swaged) has been installed,
and that the break length protrusion is correct.
(c) No cracks, scores or indentations caused by swaging are permitted in the collar.

NOTE: In the above examples, details A, B and C are read as follows:


- Example A This shows that the collar has remained totally unswaged (not
acceptable). Replace the fastener assembly.
- Example B This shows that the collar has not been fully swaged (not acceptable).
Replace the fastener assembly.
- Example C This shows a correctly swaged collar. When you have made the
inspection, make a mark on the fastener with inspection lacquer if the fastener is
correct.
(7) Pin (Swaged) Removal (Refer to Figure 083, Figure 084, Figure 085 and Figure 086)
(a) General
When it is necessary to remove a pin (swaged) use one of the methods that follow:

NOTE: It is recommended that Method 1 is used for a small number of pins, and
Methods 2 or 3 for a large number of pins.
(b) Removal Method 1 (Manual Splitter Tool)
1 To remove the collars, use the manual splitter tool to break them. This tool is of the
42-dash series, supplied by HUCK Manufacturing Co. (Refer to Figure 083).
2 Adjust the cutting jaws of the splitter tool to the applicable diameter of the pin (Refer
to Figure 083).
3 Cut the collar.
4 Remove the cut collar from the pin.
5 Examine the pin at the locking grooves for metal projections that are possibly
caused by the collar splitter tool.
6 If there are projections, remove them with a file to prevent damage to the structure
when the pin is removed.
7 Put the correct back-up dolly in position to support the structure around the pin
head.
8 Hit the pin out of its hole with a hammer and parallel punch of a smaller diameter
than the fastener shank.
9 Examine the hole for damage or distortion.

NOTE: If the hole condition is satisfactory, you can use another pin (swaged) of
the same diameter as the original pin.
(c) Removal Method 2 (Power Splitter Tool)
1 To remove the collars, use the power splitter tool to break them. This tool is of the
20034-dash series, supplied by BROWN LINE Manufacturing Co. (Refer to Figure
084).

O. Bolt-Blind (Jo-bolt/AVDEL/VISU-LOK)
(1) General (Refer to Figure 087)
(a) The Bolt-Blind is a three-part fastener assembly. The parts are:
1 A bolt with a plain head. The bolt shank has a left-hand thread along all of its length
(the reason for the left-hand thread is given in Paragraph ). There are two machined
flats along the shank on the end opposite the head. The length of the shank with
the flats is approximately 40 % of the total length of the shank. This part of the
shank is broken off when the Bolt-Blind is installed.

2 A hexagonal or countersunk headed nut. The nut has a shank that is tapered
externally at the end opposite the head. The Bolt-Blind (VISU-LOK) includes a
mechanical locking feature on the tapered face of the nut. There is an internal left-
hand thread along all the length of the nut.
3 A sleeve that is put on the bolt between the bolt head and the tapered end of the
nut.
(b) Bolts-Blind are high-strength fasteners. They are used:
- in locations that only have access from one side,
- where space prevents the use of a standard rivet or fastener,
- when they are specified in a repair procedure.
(c) The nut and the bolt are made of high-tensile steel, or stainless steel. The sleeve is made
of stainless steel.
(d) Do not install Bolts-Blind where the surfaces of the materials are more than 7° out of
parallel (3° on the wing structure).
(e) Bolts-Blind are supplied with a layer of lubricant on them (all parts). Do not clean or touch
them more than is necessary before they are installed.
(f) Do not install any parts of a Bolt-Blind that are not in a satisfactory condition. Discard any
parts that are not.
(g) To identify the correct Bolt-Blind necessary for a repair, refer to Chapter 51-40-00.
(h) You can use hand or power-operated tools, to install Bolts-Blind. The tool must have the
correct drive assembly attached to it.
(i) It is recommended that you do a test procedure on some unwanted material before you
install Bolts-Blind. Do the test on materials that are the same (type and thickness) as the
repair materials. Use Bolts-Blind for the test that are the same (head type, diameter and
grip-length) as those for the repair.
(j) The installation procedure for the Bolts-Blind is given in detail in paragraphs
2.

.The subsequent steps give, in general, the procedure (Refer to Figure 088):
- the fastener assembly is put in the prepared hole,
- the installation tool is put on the bolt end and the nut,
- the bolt is turned into the nut (this is why the bolt and the nut have left-hand
threads),
- the plain head of the bolt pushes the sleeve over the tapered end of the nut,

- at the correct torque, the part of the bolt shank with the flats breaks off,
- the installation tool is removed,
- the broken part of the bolt shank is pushed out of the installation tool automatically.

NOTE: When the sleeve is pushed over the tapered end of the nut, the shape of the
sleeve is changed. This causes two things:
- the tapered end of the nut is compressed, this causes a friction-lock between the
bolt and the nut,
- the end of the sleeve that is opposite the plain head of the bolt is pushed out. This
causes the sleeve to hold the fastener tight in the structure.
(2) Hole Preparation (Refer to Chapter 51-44-00)
(a) Holes for Bolts-Blind are drill-finished, or ream-finished. Refer to Chapter 51-44-00.
(b) Before a Bolt-Blind is installed you must examine the hole to make sure that:
- it is clean,
- it has no burrs,
- it is not damaged.
(c) Refer to Chapter 51-44-00 to find the correct dimension for the hole that is applicable to
the Bolt-Blind nominal diameter.
(d) Do the subsequent steps if a hole is damaged, or if a new hole is necessary.
1 Use grip-pins or clamps to make sure that the repair materials are correctly held
together.
2 Drill a pilot hole in the correct position.
3 Drill or ream the hole to the applicable dimension (Refer to Chapter 51-44-00).

CAUTION: DO NOT MAKE A CHAMFER AT THIS END OF THE HOLE. A


CHAMFER WOULD DECREASE THE AREA THAT THE SLEEVE
TOUCHES.
4 Deburr the hole carefully at the end where the sleeve will touch.
5 Make the relief radius, or the countersink and relief radius, as necessary, on the nut
end of the hole (Refer to Chapter 51-44-00).
(3) Selection of Bolt-Blind
(a) If the Bolt-Blind is not identified by a part number in the repair procedure, do the
subsequent steps to find the correct Bolt-Blind.
1 Measure the hole to find its diameter.
2 Refer to the subsequent table and find the first dash number necessary.

- use standard equipement to measure the total thickness of the materials
(Refer to Figure 089). This will give you the second dash number of a Bolt-
Blind part number,
- or use a Bolt-Blind grip-length gage (Refer to Figure 090). This will give you
the second dash number.
4 Refer to Chapter 51-40-12 to find the full data for the Bolt-Blind necessary for the
repair.
(4) Installation Procedure
(a) Get the correct installation tool (hexagonal or countersunk head) for the applicable Bolt-
Blind (Refer to Figure 091).
(b) Assemble a Bolt-Blind that is correct for the hole. Make sure that the nut is turned on to
the bolt finger tight only.
(c) Put the Bolt-Blind into the hole.
(d) Use the tool to hold the nut and turn the bolt. Do this until the shank of the bolt breaks off
at the special groove (Refer to Figure 092).

CAUTION: DO NOT USE MORE THAN THE APPLICABLE TORQUE IN THIS STEP.
3 Use the torque wrench and try to turn the bolt-blind in a counterclockwise direction.
If the bolt does not turn, it is correctly installed; if it does turn, replace it.
(6) Removal Procedure
(a) General
1 To remove a bolt-blind it is necessary to drill the head. A special tool is available to
help you to do this procedure. This tool is available for each type (hexagonal and
countersunk head) and diameter of bolts-blind. The tool has a drill guide at each
end. One guide is for a pilot-drill, the other guide is for a final dimension drill. The
guides are made to agree with the type of bolt-blind (Refer to Figure 096).
2 It is recommended that you use 18 % tungsten twist-drill for this procedure.
(b) Procedure (Refer to Figure 096).
1 Put the applicable twist-drill (in a drill-machine) into the hole in the pilot-drill guide
end of the special tool.

NOTE: The applicable twist-drill is that which agrees with the internal diameter of
the drill guide.
2 Put the drill guide on the nut head of the bolt-blind. Drill a hole only to the bottom of
the nut head, not the shank. Remove the twistdrill and the tool from the nut head.

P. Rivet-Blind (CHERRY PULL-THROUGH)
(Refer to Figure 097)
(1) General
(a) In this paragraph the Rivet (Blind) (CHERRY PULL-THROUGH) is referred to as Pull-
through rivet.
(b) The Pull-through rivet consists of two parts. These are:
1 A tubular body that has a protruding or 100° countersunk head.
2 A serrated mandrel that is retained in the tubular body. The mandrel has a conical
upsetting head. As the gun pulls this head into the rivet shank, a blind "tulip-head"
is formed. When this head is tightly formed against the sheet, the upsetting head of
the mandrel collapses and passes through the rivet, expanding the shank (Refer to
Figure 097).
(c) The Pull-through rivet has an identification number. This number and its specific details
are explained in Chapter 51-40-12.
(d) Pull-through rivets can be installed by pneumatic-hydraulic power or hand operated tools.
(e) Pull-through rivets must only be used when they are called up in a specific repair
procedure or other AIB approved documents.
(f) Before the installation of pull-through rivets make sure that:
- the rivet type is correct,
- the rivets are made of the required material,
- the rivets have the specified surface protection and/or lubrication, and that they are
not corroded or scratched,
- the rivets are of the correct length and diameter,
- the hole for the rivets are correctly prepared.
(2) Installation Procedure
(a) Make sure that the rivets are of the correct dimensions (diameter and length). If the length
is not known refer to Figure 098.
(b) Refer to Chapter 51-44-00 to find the correct dimension for the hole that is applicable to
the pull-through rivet nominal diameter.
(c) Drill the hole to the required diameter (Refer to Chapter 51-44-00 ).
(d) Make sure that the hole, including the countersunk, is in a satisfactory condition, clean
and free from burrs.

NOTE: How to use this data:


- 1. Measure the material thickness (T). For example = 0.315 in (8.0 mm).
- 2. Find in the table the grip-length range which includes this thickness. In this
example it is 0.313 in (7.95 mm) to 0.375 in (9.52 mm).
- 3. Thus the second dash number necessary, which is related to the grip
range found in step 2 is 6.
(b) Acceptance Limits
1 Due to the varying degrees of functional importance of installed pull-through rivets,
acceptance or rejection is mostly at the discretion of the inspector.
2 As general guide, reject loose or cracked rivets.
(4) Removal of Pull-Through Rivets

CAUTION: WHEN REMOVING RIVETS, TAKE CARE NOT TO CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE
STRUCTURE, ESPECIALLY WHEN THE SKIN IS THIN.

CAUTION: IF THE RIVET TURNS DURING DRILLING OPERATIONS, DAMAGE CAN BE


CAUSED TO THE SKIN/HOLE.
(a) The removal of pull-through rivets is achieved by first removing the manufactured head
then driving the remainder of the rivet out of its hole. With a twist-drill of the same nominal
diameter as the rivet drill almost through the head. It is recommended that a mechanical
stop is used on the twist-drill to control the depth drilled. With a parallel pin punch remove
the rivet head. With a parallel pin punch and hammer hit out the remainder of the rivet
body. The parallel pin punch diameter must be slightly less than the nominal diameter of

the rivet, but greater than the rivet inner diameter. Support the structure on the underside
during this step.
Q. Rivet (Solid) (CHERRYBUCK)
(1) General
(a) It is recommended that only suitably trained and approved personnel do the work
necessary to install CHERRYBUCK rivets.
(b) The CHERRYBUCK rivet is a one piece bimetallic solid rivet. The rivet is manufactured
from two materials to give a high strength stem with an easily formable tail (Refer to
Figure 100).
(c) The CHERRYBUCK rivet is especially suitable for installation in composite/metallic or
composite structure. In a composite/metallic combination the upset head is formed on the
metallic material side.
(d) The CHERRYBUCK rivet can be used when it is necessary to form a countersunk upset
head (Refer to Figure 101)
(e) Good access and clearance is necessary to both sides of the area where CHERRYBUCK
rivets will be installed. This will allow the necessary drilling, installation and inspection
procedures to be done.
(f) The CHERRYBUCK rivet can be used where the structure surface is at an angle to the
rivet axis up to a maximum of 105. This is only permitted when the upset head is a flat
head (Refer to Figure 102).
(g) The upset head of the CHERRYBUCK rivet can be formed by:
1 Hand hammer (in metallic structure only).
2 Single or multistroke pneumatic hammer (not on carbon fiber reinforced plastic
(CFRP) structure).
3 Rivet squeezer.
4 Automatic riveter.
(h) When a 'wet installation' of CHERRYBUCK rivets is required refer to Chapter 51-76-00.
(2) Pretreatment of CHERRYBUCK Rivets
(a) No pretreatment is necessary for CHERRYBUCK rivets before they are installed.
(b) Any existing surface protection and lubrication on CHERRYBUCK rivets must be
preserved until after they are installed.
(3) Hole Preparation
(a) Holes must be prepared in accordance with the information given in Chapter 51-44-11.
(b) If it is required that the holes be countersunk refer to Chapter 51-46-11.

1 To determine the correct grip length of the rivet required, measure the thickness of
the materials to be joined using a suitable tool (Refer To Figure 103).
2 In an application wher a countersunk upset head is to be used, the measured sheet
thickness minus the countersunk depth for the upset head gives the required length
of the rivet (Refer to Figure 101).
3 Refer to the relevant ABS number in the Standards Manual to find the dash number
for the required length.
4 The weld joining the two materials of the rivet must not be outside the minimum grip
(Refer to Figure 104).
5 If a countersunk upset head is to be formed the weld must be above the
countersunk depth (Refer to Figure 101).

NOTE: CHERRYBUCK rivets must not be shortened.


NOTE: It is not permitted to use a CHERRYBUCK rivet in a material thickness
that is less than the minimum allowable value for the rivet (Refer to

above). See also example 1 below.
Example 1: Material thickness to be joined = 5.537 mm (0.218 in).
Required grip length dash number = -4. A rivet with the dash number -4R
is not permitted because the grip range for this rivet is 5.562 mm (0.219
in) to 6.35 mm (0.250 in).
NOTE: The maximum allowable grip length may be exceeded by up to 0.78 mm
(0.031 in). AIRBUS must be contact for this concession that is only
applicable for -5, -6 and -8 diameter rivets. See also example 2 below.
Example 2: Material thickness to be joined = 6.32 mm (0.249 in).
Required grip length dash number = -4R. If this grip length rivet is not
available a -4 rivet may be used with a concession from AIRBUS.
(b) Diameter
1 To determine the correct diameter rivet, accurately measure the diameter of the
hole. If the hole diameter is within the tolerances for a standard rivet (Refer to
Chapter 51-44-11), select a rivet of that diameter. If the hole is not within the
tolerances it will be necessary to increase the hole to the next standard diameter.
2 If the hole diameter is larger than that required for a -8 rivet contact AIRBUS for
advice.
(5) Installation
(a) CHERRYBUCK rivets are initially placed in the hole as follows:

(2) Pretreatment of CHERRY E-Z BUCK rivets
(a) No pretreatment is necessary for CHERRY E-Z BUCK rivets before they are installed.
(b) Any existing surface protection and lubrication on CHERRY E-Z BUCK rivets must be
preserved until after they are installed.
(3) Hole Preparation
(a) Holes must be prepared in accordance with the information given in Chapter 51-44-11.
(b) If it is required that the holes be countersunk refer to Chapter 51-46-11.
(4) Rivet Selection
(a) Rivet length
1 To determine the correct length of the rivet required, measure the thickness of the
materials to be joined (grip length), using a suitable tool (Refer to Figure 114 and
115) and add the required backside protrusion (Refer to Figure 115).
2 In an application where a countersunk upset head is to be used, the measured
sheet thickness, plus an additional length 'X' to achieve optimal filling of the
countersunk hole gives the required length of the rivet, plus the required backside
protrusion (Refer to Figure 116).
(b) Diameter
1 To determine the correct diameter rivet, accurately measure the diameter of the
hole. If the hole diameter is within the tolerances for a standard rivet (Refer to
Chapter 51-44-11), select a rivet of that diameter. If the hole is not within the
tolerances it will be necessary to increase the hole to the next standard diameter.
2 If the hole diameter is larger than that required for a -6 rivet contact AIRBUS for
advice.
(5) Installation
(a) CHERRY E-Z BUCK rivets are initially placed in the clearance fit hole by hand.
(b) Use one of the methods that follow to form the upset head. The method used will depend
upon accessibility and the number of rivets to be installed.

recommended for this task.
(c) Milling of Countersunk Heads
When it is necessary to mill the heads of the CHERRY E-Z BUCK countersunk rivets care
must be taken to avoid damaging the structure. The heads of the countersunk rivets can
be milled using a plain cylindrical milling cutter with carbide cutting edges. The speed of
the milling cutter should be approximately 3000 rpm. The equipment must have a height
adjustment stop.

NOTE: A riveted sample must be used to verify the adjustment of the milling cutter and
to secure the correct setting. This is necessary to avoid damage to the structure
where the rivets to be milled are installed.

When it is necessary to remove CHERRY E-Z BUCK rivets care must be taken to avoid
damaging the rivet holes and surrounding structure. Where possible the rivet should be
removed by first removing the manufactured head. During the removal process take care
to ensure that debris from the rivet does not fall into inaccessible areas.
(b) Four basic steps are necessary to remove a rivet, these are:
1 Center-punch the rivet head. For thin-walled components use a dolly to support the
upset head. This will give a location for the twist drill tip, refer to Figure 150, step 1.
2 Drill to the depth of the head with a twist drill that is 0.2 mm (0.008 in) smaller than
the nominal diameter of the rivet, refer to Figure 150, step 2. Rivets that have a long
grip length may be drilled deeper.
3 Break off the drilled head with a parallel pin punch, refer to Figure 150, step 3.
4 Drive out the remaining rivet stem with a parallel pin punch, the diameter of the pin
punch must be slightly smaller than the rivet stem diameter, refer to Figure 150,

S. Drilling of Bolt Threads
(1) General
(a) Drilling of the bolt on installation is allowed provided all necessary precautions are taken
to prevent weakening screw strength (in particular, non off centered drilling, correct
perpendicularity, correct bore diameter, slight deburring) and risks of corrosion
(installation using grease in the case of steel screws, reprotection if required).
(b) It is recommended to use pre-drilled bolts, suppliers have automatic machines that
guarantee that this procedure will be performed correctly.
(c) Holes for split pins may be drilled in bolts and studs either in-situ or after disassembly,
depending on the accessibility or material from which the parts are made. The holes are
then deburred prior to fitting the split pins.
(2) Limitations

It is recommended that only trained and approved personnel perform shank drilling
procedure.
(a) Split Pin Holes
1 The split pin holes are to be protected by a jointing compound, that is the same
jointing compound as used for the assembly of the joint, unless stated otherwise in
the maintenance procedure.
2 Thin plain nuts and lightweight self-locking nuts are not to be locked with split pins,
unless stated otherwise in the repair or maintenance procedure.
(b) Split Pins and Associated Parts
1 Split pins are to be used once only.
2 Under no circumstances must split-pin holes be re-drilled to obtain alignment or be
opened up to accommodate a larger size split pin.
3 On assemblies where the bolt/stud has no split pin hole drilled but the maintenance
procedure calls for a split pin to be fitted, then the bolt/stud must only be drilled in
accordance with the following procedure.
4 Split pin hole centres must be a distance not less than twice the nominal diameter
of the split pin hole from the end of the bolt, or in the same position as the hole in
the removed bolt.
5 If not specified, requirements of the bolt standard must be respected for split pin
hole location and dimensions.
(3) Drilling Procedure of Bolt Shank Thread
(a) Install/screw the suitable drill guide on to the bolt/stud thread, positioning to enable the
split pin hole to be drilled to specific requirements and secure the bolt/stud and guide in a
vice, to carry out the drilling operation (Refer to Figure 122).
1 Where it is necessary to drill a hole in the bolt thread in-situ, a locally manufactured
drill guide may be used to locate the hole position.

NOTE: A suitable drill guide can be an home-made guide that allow to drill a hole
to the requirements of the present procedure and/or relevant bolt standard.
2 Where a bolt or stud can be removed, mark the hole location, remove the bolt/stud
from the assembly and install it in a drill guide. The bolt must preferably not be
drilled in-situ. When possible and especially for titanium bolts, the fastener should
preferably be routed to the machine shop for drilling and deburring, otherwise the
holes may be drilled using bench or pillar machines and suitable holding fixture.
3 Use of slotted nut or slave nut are not recommended because they offer inadequate
location during the drilling procedure.
(b) Set the drilling machine at a recommended cutting speed, ensuring that the machine and
the drill used for general purpose drilling (Refer to Chapter 51-44-11).

U. High Interference Fit Fasteners - Removal and Repair
(1) General
(a) This section describes the removal and repair of the following High Interference Fit
Fasteners:
- Hi-Lite Pull-In (ABS0925, ABS0876 and ABS0997),
- Hi-Lite Pull-Stem (ABS0907),
- Pull-Type Studs (Threaded Pin),
- XPL Pin swaged.
(b) Hi-Lite Pull-In and Hi-Lite Pull-Stem are part of the threaded pin family. This system is
designed to allow good installation for interference fit. As a difference, compared to
normal Hi-Lite, the pin use a stem and specific tooling to pull the fastener into position. Hi-
Lite Pull-In and Hi-Lite Pull-Stem are particular adapted to interference and very high
interference fits.
(c) XPL Pin swaged (or XPL Lockbolt) is part of the pin swaged family. As normal pin
swaged, a stern is used for installation. This design is adapted to interference up to very
high interference fits. There are also applications in composite (clearance fit). This system
has a double grip capability and high mechanical performances due to the fact that
material of the swaged collar is of titanium alloy.
(d) For further information about Hi-Lite Pull-In, Hi-Lite Pull-Stem and XPL Pin swaged refer
to Figure 138.
(2) Fastener Identification - Head Marking
(a) For information about the head marking on Hi-Lite Pull-In, Hi-Lite Pull-Stem and XPL Pin
swaged fasteners, refer to Figure 139.
(3) Fastener Applications and Repairs
(a) Hi-Lite Pull-In, Hi-Lite Pull-Stem and XPL Pin swaged systems are capable for the
installation with a very high interference level (up to 120-200 interference for diameter 1.0
in). This very high interference fit is used in some areas with high fatigue loads. These
areas are:
- Wing to fuselage junction,
- Wing rear spar.

(g) It is recommended that only trained operators prepare the holes and install these
fasteners.
(2) Hole Preparation
(a) The holes for these fasteners must be prepared to give the correct fit and to a good
standard. They are prepared in three stages, these are:
- 1. Drill a pilot-hole (Refer to Chapter 51-44-00),
- 2. First stage boring by twist drill or reamer,
- 3. Final boring by a reamer.

NOTE: These stages only apply to new holes, for example, when you do a repair. For a
hole that already exists, it is only necessary to increase it to the correct oversize
diameter.
(b) The final hole diameter tolerances are given in Chapter 51-44-00.
1 When you drill or ream the holes for these fasteners you are recommended to use a
drilling jig or equivalent tool. This will help you to make sure that the hole is
perpendicular with the material.
2 Only use twist drills and reamers that are sharp and in good condition. This will
make sure that the holes are accurate and to a good condition.
(3) Hole Preparation Procedure
(a) You are recommended to use soluble oil or praffin to lubricate the twist drills and reamers
when you are preparing the holes.
(b) Refer to Chapter 51-44-00 (Hole and Drill Data) and select the correct size twist drill for
the pilot hole. Drill the pilot hole.

NOTE: In a repair procedure or other special circumstances, you can given a pilot hole
diameter that does not agree with the information in Chapter 51-44-00. In this
case use the alternative diameter.
(c) Do the first stage boring. You can use one of two methods to do this, these are:
1 With a twist drill, drill a hole that is approximately 0.05 mm (0.002 in) smaller than
the final hole.
2 With a reamer make a hole that is approximately 0.3 mm (0.012 in) smaller than the
final hole.

NOTE: After you have done this stage the entry to this hole must permit the use
of the final stage tool. You must be able to enter the final stage tool for at
least 1.0 mm (0.039 in).
(d) Carefully ream the holes to the final diameters that are given in Chapter 51-44-00.

NOTE: The surface roughness of the inner face of the holes must be less than 1.6
micrometers (63 micro inches).
(e) Deburr and radius or chamfer the entry and exist edges of the holes (Refer to Chapter 51-
44-00).

(f) Check the final diameter of the holes with the applicable limit plug gage.
(4) Selection of Fastener Length
(a) You can use one of two methods that follow, to find the correct length of the fastener
required:
- Method 1: Refer to Figure 023 for the information how to use a grip length gage and
the relevant fastener data,
- Method 2: 1. Measure the thickness of the materials that are to be fastened. Use
suitable precision tools to do this. 2. Refer to Figure 023 (sheet 3) and select a
fastener of the correct length to fit the tolerance given.

NOTE: The diagram in Figure 023 (sheet 3) is for information only and is not an exact
feature of a typical Tension Bolt.
(5) Fastener Installation Procedure
The procedure that follows is applicable to steel, corrosion resistance or Inconel fasteners.
(a) Put the repair pieces into their correct position. Secure them with temporary bolts or Grip-
pins.

NOTE: Because the final fasteners will be hammered into position, you are
recommended to secure the materials through at least 50% of the holes. This is
to stop a gap forming between the materials.

CAUTION: IT IS IMPORTANT THAT YOU MAKE SURE THAT THE FASTENER IS


PERPENDICULAR TO THE HOLE BEFORE YOU DRIVE IT IN.
(b) Put the fastener in the hole and drive it in until the head is seated on the material. To do
this you can use a standard pneumatic hammer, either single or multi-hit. Use a rivet set
(snap) of a size that will not damage the fastener head or the material.

NOTE: Install all fasteners "wet" unless instructed differently in a repair procedure.
Refer to (Refer to Chapter 51-76-11) for sealing information.
(c) If applicable refer to Table 15, and and select the correct washer. It is important that you
only use washers of the correct thickness and internal diameter. If necessary two washers
may be used to get the correct thickness, but do not use washers of 0.4 mm (0.016 in)
thickness or less.

NOTE: It is recommended that you only use alloy steel or corrosion resistance washers.
Do not use a mixture of washer materials on the same fastener.
(d) Put the applicable nut on to the fastener. Tighten the nut to the correct torque value (Refer
to Chapter 51-49-00).

NOTE: If the type of nuts is not specified in the repair procedure select one that is
suitable from the list that follows: NSA5057 Nut, Self-locking 12 Point with
captive; NSA5373 Nut, Self-locking 12 Point Double durability; ASNA0094 Nut,
12 Point Self-locking; NSA5060 Nut, Castellated, Hexagon, Self-locking; SL4108
Nut, Castellated, Hexagon.

- the pin finish is not damaged,
The nuts must be discarded. You are not permitted to re-use them.
(8) Further Information
When a Tension Fastener is removed, further action to the hole is necessary as follows:
(a) Transition Fit Hole.
Measure the hole diameter and if the diameter is within the permitted tolerances (Refer to
Chapter 51-44-00) and in good condition, a replacement standard fastener can be used. If
the diameter is outside the permitted tolerances, the hole must be prepared for an
oversize fastener (Refer to Chapter 51-43-00).
(b) Clearance Fit Hole.
If the hole condition is good no further action is necessary. If the hole condition is not
acceptable, it must be prepared for an oversize fastener (Refer to Chapter 51-43-00).

(2) Surface Preparation
Before using the tool to cut fastener head, it is necessary to remove paint (or any other
insulating layer) from the head of the fasteners which are to be removed with this process so
that electrical conductivity through the head of the fastener is ensured. Since the surrounding
surface is also used to seal in the Dielectric Water, rough surfaces around the fastener head
should also be cleaned of any debris or smoothed by covering with tape. Removing any surface
paint must be conducted in accordance with the requirement of the SRM.

(c) Removal of Flush-Head Fasteners

NOTE: This task is only applicable for Countersunk (CSK) fasteners and their
alternatives given in Table 52. The process to remove flush-head fasteners is
different to the method for protruding fasteners.
1 Select the correct fastener type on the Hand Held Terminal. Identify from the screen
which Electrode and Electrode Guide are required and install the electrode, adapter
and guide on the hand tool.
2 Place the VFHL over the fastener head, using the sighting aperture to ensure the
VFHL is concentric. Once the locator is centralised to the fastener head, press the
airline button to secure in position, and re-check the VFHL is still central (Refer to
Figure 153).
3 Remove the sighting aperture and insert the e-drill (Refer to Figure 154).

and try again. If the e-drill is not placed centric over the fastener, the e-drill will cut
out of the pin and damage the airframe.
5 While holding the e-drill firmly but lightly against the fastener (Refer to Figure 151),
wrap fingers around the e-drill grip and squeeze the trigger with your second finger.
The device will then automatically go through the following sequence:
a The Vacuum Pump will turn on to purge the area.
b The cutting electrode will advance until it detects the electrically conductive
head to the fastener, whereupon it will calibrate itself.
c The cutting electrode will retract slightly, the system Water Pump will start
and cutting will be initiated.
d Cutting will proceed until the prescribed depth is achieved (as defined by the
fastener selection in the Hand Held Terminal), at which point the power will

be shut off, the system Water Pump will stop, and the light on the back of the
hand-tool will illuminate green. The system Vacuum Pump will continue to
operate until the trigger is released.
e Remove the e-drill from the fastener, revealing the circular groove cut in the
fastener head (Refer to Figure 156).
f If the light on the back of the e-drill does not show green at the completion of
the cut, then the cut may not have completed successfully to depth. If the
light is showing a solid red then the likely cause is either bad electrical
continuity resulting from paint or other coating, or the fastener material is not
the same as was selected from the library.
Ensure all paint or other coatings are removed, place the e-drill over the
fastener and try again. A flashing green light indicates the cutting electrode
must be replaced. A flashing red light indicates a system error, refer to
Operator hand Held Terminal for details.
g Upon completion of the cut, select a proper size hand punch and centre the
punch in the fastener head. Sever the fastener head with a sharp blow on the
punch with a hammer.
It may be necessary to strike the punch more than once. If the fastener head
does not separate, the fastener is most likely an oversize stem. Once this is
confirmed, select an oversize cutting electrode and setting. Re-cut the
fastener and attempt to sever the fastener head again with a punch and
hammer. Oversized cutting electrodes must only be subsequently used after
consultation and agreement with local engineering.
(4) Completion
Both a visual and diametric inspection of the holes are required following each fastener removal
as per existing specifications.
Damage or misaligned cuts caused due to electrode contact with the structure must be raised as
a defect report (Refer to Figure 155 and Figure 157)
Any exposed untreated aluminium surface must be thoroughly dried with either a lint-free cloth
or similar approved method as per SRM requirements to prevent corrosion due to exposure with
deionised water. If the surface will be exposed for any period of 24 hours or greater, temporary
protection must be applied as per SRM requirements.

(4) Pre-installation
(a) Grip Selection (Refer to Figure 165)
1 The specific ABS2322K Structural Blind Bolt gage part number is A22540. In
addition to grip selection it allows diameter and grip code identification of the
ABS2322K Structural Blind Bolt fastener.
2 ABS2322K Structural Blind Bolt has the same grip range as HI-LOK, HI-LITE or
LOCKBOLT fasteners. The Arconic 122666 GP/LGP grip gage will also provide a
direct reading of the ABS2322K Structural Blind Bolt grip code to be installed. It is
widely available and used.
(b) Grip Verification
Use grip scale on side of the gage to verify grip length of the fastener, refer to Figure 166.
(c) Inspection
Gages allows the bulb shape and protrusion to be checked with the part numbers
identified below:

(c) Use the appropriate installation gun with the required nose insert; ensure that the anti-
rotation feature engages the recess pattern on the sleeve head of the blind bolt by rotating
driver splined pintail.
(d) Rotation of the corebolt starts bulbing of the sleeve.
(e) Continued rotation completes bulb formation.
(f) Pintail is twisted off flush with the sleeve head and discard.
(g) Installation is complete.
(6) Post Installation (Refer to Figure 168)
(a) The breakneck must shear in torsion.
(b) The core bolt surface must be within ± 0.08 mm (0.003 in) of the sleeve and core bolt
reference points.
(c) Use a dial gauge to measure the flushness where required. It is recommended to use 0.8
mm (0.032 in) stylus tip with a tripod or quadpod or magnetic support for measurements.
1 Place the zero gauge against part surface as close as possible to the edge of the
bolt. Ensure that gauge feet/contact points are not touching fastener when zeroing.
2 Check measurement of fastener at least in 3 points (example: points A, B, C) of the
fastener head ensuring no contact with the recess or manufacturer identification
mark. Do not measure the corebolt.
3 The flushness is correct if each point measured in the previous step is inside the
flushness tolerance.
a Ensure the bulb is adequately formed at the back of the plate or structure by
checking for defect as shown in Figure 169.
b If there is no access on the other side, use appropriate NDT process to check
for adequate formation of the bulb.
(7) Removal Process
(a) Drill through the head of the corebolt 3 mm (0.12 in) depth approximately using a cutting
tool with 2.5 mm (0.098 in) diameter, refer to Figure 170 (Sheet 1).
(b) Use an easy-out tool to remove the corebolt by placing the tool into the hole drilled into
the corebolt and rotating in an anti-clockwise direction, refer to Figure 170 (Sheet 2).
(c) Drill in the center of sleeve using a cutting tool with 3.9 mm (0.154 in) diameter. Use a
micro stop tool to control the depth to avoid damaging the hole, refer to Figure 170 (Sheet
3).
(d) Remove the sleeve by using a "pin hunting" tool: place a center punch inside of sleeve
head inner diameter and hammer out the sleeve, refer to Figure 170 (Sheet 4).
(e) Typical bolt removal as shown in Figure 170 (Sheet 5) indicates end of removal process.
