Material & Mechanical Requirements
42CrMo alloy steel and class 10.9 are project options. Specify the material, mechanical properties and any required fatigue test criteria for the stud and matched barrel nut.
Threads & Connection
Specify the thread form, pitch, tolerance and both engagement lengths. Match the stud to the barrel nut and the outer nut on the blade-root connection drawing.
Surface & Protection
Zinc-flake coating or another specified protective system. Define coating, friction requirements and thread protection together with the tightening specification.
COMPONENTS & INSPECTION
Coordinate The Stud And Its Barrel Nut.
Supply Configuration
Specify whether the order covers studs alone or a matched T-bolt connection set.
