Frictional behaviour of coated self-locking aerospace fasteners

Nuts and bolts used in aero-engines are manufactured from heat-resistant super-alloys. These materials have a high CoF, and frequently seizure occurs. In order to prevent this, a silver coating is applied to the nut threads, providing a low friction boundary at the interface. Additionally, a radial...
