Aircraft Fasteners Guide

1. A/C screws are usually manufactured with class 1 fit for threads, which is the tightest fit. 2. In the four digit aluminum system, 1100 identifies commercially pure aluminum that is 99% aluminum. 3. AN clevis bolts are used for a specific type of load application. 4. Lock washers should never be used where failure permits airflow or where exposed to corrosion. The document provides information about aircraft hardware including types of bolts, nuts, rivets and their specifications. It asks multiple choice questions to test understanding of aircraft fastener standards and applications.
