Subject: | Main Gear Attachment Nut Torque...? |
Does anyone know the correct torque value for the AN365-820 fiber lock nuts on
the 1/2" Grade 8 bolts on the Main Gear Attachment bracket 6B11-4...?
AC43.13-1B gives values on page 7-9, however I believe these values are for "metal
against metal". In the case of the Main Gear Attachment, we have "Metal against
Rubber".
What have other builders done...?
- Pat
PS - The drawings specify that these nuts can be used, and the farm boy in me thinks
that the fiber nut is better than the castle nut because a bolt WITHOUT
a hole in it is going to be stronger than a bolt WITH a hole in it. But the torque
question is still valid in any case.
