Aircraft Hardware
Standards Manual &
Engineering Reference
by Stanley Dzik
Aircraft Hardware Standards & Engineering Reference is a very complete reference guide to AN, NAS, and MS hardware, giving identification and specifications for each class of hardware. Identifications are cross referenced in drawings and by its designation code. Specifications are given by basic description, nominal measurements, materials, and thread characteristics. Coverage includes all common types of fasteners and plumbing fittings, including less common items such as shackles, eyebolts, tinnerman fasteners, swage ends, hose fittings, clamps, dzus fasteners, cherry and solid rivets, springs, grommets, etc.......
Note: some charts in this book are printed very small and with a less than perfect printing that may be difficult to read.
