THE USE OF PINS WITH FLATS TO INCREASE THE FATIGUE LIFE OF ALUMINUM ALLOY LUGS.

Abstract

Pins with machined flats were used to improve the fatique life of aluminium alloy lugs. A worthwhile increase in life was obtained, the magnitude of which depended on the depth of flat. The choice of optimum pin geometry is discussed. (Author)
