threa s W ith the exception of the reces es, the dimensions and tolerances
specified are the same as those g iv en in BS2A17 for cou ter u k slot ed hea
bolts
As in BS2A17 , the “ flushnes tolerance” method is a opted for the
dimensioning of the counter u k hea The b sic principles and a v antag es of
this method, fir t used in a BritishStand rd for cou ter u k hea fastener in
BS19 1, “Unified ma chine s r ews a nd ma chine s r ew n ts”, are outl ned in
Appendix A to this stand rd, tog ether with sug g ested methods of g aug ing Detais
of the method of g aug ing the s rew-driv er reces es are g iv en in Appendix B
Reference is ma e in the stand rd to the fol owing BritishStand rds:

Trang 51 Scope
This BritishStand rd specifies the material,
dimensions, finish and inspection requirements for
ste l bolts with10 ° cou ter u k reces ed hea s
and Unified threa s for air raft
The bolts shal comply with the relev ant
requirements of Part1 of BS A10 in respect of
man facture, s rew threa s, and anti cor osion
treatment
3 Material and m anufacture
a) The bolts shal be forg ed fom material which
compl es with the latest is ue of one of the
folowing BritishStand rds:
BS S102,
or BS S10 ,
or BS S14
or BS S14
or BS S14
or BS S
2)
b) In the final y heat-treated condition, the
mechanical properties of the material shal be as
folows:
a) All finished bolts, after the a plcation of the
anticor osion coating , shal conform to the
dimensions and tolerances g iv en in Ta le 1 and
Ta le 2
b) The clamping leng th M of the bolt shal
conform to the dimensions and tolerances g iv en
in Ta le 2, and shal be such that, when a
stand rd n t without cou ter in or a ring g aug e
without cou ter in has be n s rewed on as far
as pos ible b hand, its lea ing face is within the
distance M fom the up er sur ace of the bolt
hea The ru -out of threa shal not exce d twice
the pitch
c) The nominal leng th of the bolt shal be the
minimum bearing leng th L,which is determined
b the minimum clamping leng th M, les two
threa pitches
5 Scr w thr ads
The bolts shal hav e unified threa s of the form and
clas of fit specified in the relev ant requirements of
BS A10 , Part 1
6 Anti- corrosion coating
All finished bolts shal be coated with ca mium
7 Identification
The BritishStand rd n mber and p rt n mber
shal not be a pled on the bolts, but shal be clearly
marked on the la els of p r els of bolts
8 Inspection procedure
The bolts shal be inspected in ac ord nce with the
relev ant requirements of BS A10 , Part 2
9 Gaug ing
a) The method of hea dimensioning shown in
Ta le 1 defines ma imum and minimum hea
env elopes which control flushnes in the man er
des ribed in Appendix A
b) The ty pe of g aug e shown in Fig ure 4 and
Fig ure 5 is recommended as being suita le for
flushnes measurement, but the ty pe of g aug e to
be used is not a mand tory requirement of this
stand rd The g aug e shown in Fig ure 4 and
Fig ure 5 do s not control the hea ang le, which
wi l require to be checked at interv als during
production An a ditional g aug e wi be neces ary
for the a solute minimum hea diameter
c) The penetration of the reces shal be g aug ed in
ac ord nce with Appendix B

Trang 13Appendix A Principles offlushnes
control and r com m ended g aug ing
practice
1 The major requirement of the user of a
cou ter u k hea bolt is that the up er sur ace of
the hea should fit with as g reat a deg re of
flush es as pos ible with the sur ace into which it
is inserted This flush es is dependent upon both
the tolerance on the hea of the bolt and that on the
cou ter u k hole into which the hea is fit ed The
method of dimensioning a opted in this stand rd
directly controls the flush es ac uracy of the bolt in
relation to the counter ink, the result in an actual
as embly being dependent upon the tolerance
a pled to the cou ter in , which is outside the
s ope of this stand rd
2 In the tra itional method of dimensioning
cou ter u k hea bolts, the l mits on the bolt hea
thick es are afected b the tolerance on the shan
diameter This howev er is of no consequence in the
mat er of flush es and it would be neces ary for
any deg re of flush es to exer ise a closer control
on hea thick es and/ or shan diameter if the
tra itional dimensioning methods were used
3 The recommended methods of g aug ing flush es
are simple and do not cal for any measurement of
dificult or dubious dimensions
4 The most important aspect ofthe bolt hea in the
at ainment of flush es is the position of the flat
up er sur ace of the hea in relation to the conical
under surace The g aug ing dimension b which this
is controled is that betwe n the flat up er surace
and a plane which cuts the conical sur ace normal to
its a is at a specified diameter k own as the
g aug ing diameter ( se Fig ure 2) The dimension
measured is k own as the “ hea protrusion” and its
tolerance as the “lush es tolerance”
5 The v aria les which afect the flushnes tolerance
are:
a) The diameter to sharp corner ( the
hy pothetical inter ection of the flat up er surace
and the conical u der surace ofthe hea ) and
b) The included ang le of the hea
The g aug ing diameter is at a proximately
one-third of the hea depth fom the up er
sur ace
6 The elements which define the bolt hea and
which are required to be controled b inspection
are:
a) hea protrusion, the lmits of which define the
flushnes tolerance;
b) diameter of hea to sharp corner ; this is
controled indirectly b the inspection of a) and
d);
c) actual diameter of hea for which a minimum
is specified and which is the diameter at the land;
d) included ang le of the conical u der sur ace;
e) ra ius betwe n conical surace and shan
It is not a requirement of this stand rd that a
p rticular method of inspection shal be employ ed
Hea protrusion ma be checked b means of a
g aug e of the ty e shown in Fig ure 4, b a G -NOT G
g aug e, b optical projection, or b any other suita le
means The actual diameter ma be checked b
direct measurement or b a G -NOT G g aug e The
hea ang le and ra ius at shan ma be checked b
optical projection
7 Fig ure 4 i lustrates a ty pe of g aug e which has
achiev ed some popularity for use with air raft
cou ter u k hea bolts and riv ets in the U.S.A
Detai s of a suita le g aug e block are g iv en in
Fig ure 5
The inter ection of the hole X with the top surace of
the g aug e block forms the diameter on which the
cone of the bolt hea rests The diameter of the
holeX is sl g htly les than the g aug ing diameter N
to permit the edg e of the hole to be broken to form a
land a proximately0.0 3in wide b la ping with a
hardened ste l b l unti the dimension Z is within
the stated lmits The dimension Z is calculated fom
the formula
W hen the bolt is inserted in the block, the dial
indicator is used to g iv e a direct rea ing of hea
protrusion which is the amou t b which the top
surace of the bolt hea protrudes a ov e the top
surace of the g aug e block
