    Subject: [PLEASE READ] Why I Have A Fund Raiser...
    Since the beginning, the Matronics List and Forum experience has been free from advertising. I have been approached by fair number of vendors wanting to tap into the large volume of activity across the various lists hosted here, but have always flatly refused. Everywhere you go on the Internet these days, a user is pummeled with flashing banners and videos and ads for crap that they don't want. Yahoo, Google and that elk are not "free". The user must constantly endure their barrage of commercialism thrust into their face at an ever increasing rate. Enough is enough, and the Lists at Matronics choose not to succumb to that. That being said, running a service of this size is not "free". It costs a lot of money to maintain the hardware, pay for the electricity, air conditioning, maintenance contracts, etc, etc. etc. I choose to hold a PBS-like fund raiser each year during the month of November where I simply send out a short email every other day asking the members to make a small contribution to support the operation. That being said, that contribution is completely voluntary and non-compulsory. Many members choose not to contribute and that's fine. However, a very modest percentage of the members do choose to make a contribution and it is that financial support that keeps the Lists running. And that's it. To my way of thinking, it is a much more pleasant way of maintaining the Lists and Forums. The other 11 months of the year, you don't see a single advertisement or request for support. That's refreshing and that is a List and Forum that I want to belong to. I think other people feel the same way. Won't you please take a minute to make your Contribution today and support these Lists? http://www.matronics.com/contribution Or, drop a personal check in the mail to: Matt Dralle / Matronics 581 Jeannie Way Livermore CA 94550 USA Thank you for your support!

    Subject: Re: Prop nut torque
    From: Ernest Martinez <erniel29@gmail.com>
    Walt, The first place I looked was in the overhaul manual. I can see all the other torque values but none for the main nut. I see one cryptic entry which doesnt specify a torque value per se' but states: "Torque propellor housing nut to such extent that before installation of driving sleeve, rotation moment for each blade is 9.8 +- 2 N.M. during change from low pitch to high pitch. Ensure that torque difference between 2 nuts is not more than 2 N.M." I interpret this to mean, torque the nut to the point that the force to manually change the pitch is no more than 9.8 NM. But what other 2 nuts are they talking about?

    Subject: Re: Prop nut torque
    Ernie; I probably gave you a bum steer. It is after all an =9Coverhaul=9D manual and that is an installation value. I know it is in my copy but only because I probably put it in when I converted all those torque values to in/lb or ft lb. My apologies. Can=99t confirm any of that as the manual is in the hangar and I am home under the weather. The other torque item you note is indeed the setting of the actual blade torque. Under normal circumstances it is an overhaul function only during hub assembly with the drive sleeve not installed. The drive sleeve is a rotational part in the hub that connects the blades to each other and to the pitch-change piston. The =9Cnut=9D they refer to should be =9Cnut=99s=9D and may be better described as blade bearing nuts =93 the big nuts in each end of the hub. These are tightened until each blade turning torque (rotational moment) is within limit and the actual nut torque is within 2NM of each other. At this point the nuts are metal stamped to line up with an index mark on the hub for future considerations, the prop is disassembled and reassembled with all parts in preparation for balancing.

    Subject: Re: Prop nut torque
    From: "Vic" <vicmolnar@aol.com>
    It puzzles me how one can issue torque numbers for the blades when the nuts only do one job, preload axial rollers. So Id be a bit worried to overload those rollers heavily to achieve 10 Nm torque in a roller bearing that normally has very low friction. What could be the effect if this torque was only half or quart of the numbers, anybody an idea ? I only know the Russian hub.
