5K-2405: ГАЙКА

The barrel nut is a round slug, or formed sheet metal part with threads perpendicular to the length of the nut. The nut sits in a hole inside the forging and a standard bolt is threaded into the barrel nut from outside the sheet metal. They are preferred over a standard nut and bolt, because they do not require a flange to be machined or forged onto the receiving part, thus reducing weight.

Attributes:
• Allows for an excellent grip.
• Distributes equal forces all over the place, the chances of any damage reduction with it.
• Provide a much stronger joint which produces fewer gaps between components during assembly.

Applications:
Barrel Nuts are used with high-tensile strength bolts to join load-carrying members. Landing gear to the fuselage, engine pods to wings, and nacelle and fuel tank attachments are typical of the many places barrel nuts are used.
