490 degrees c

18
Q

How long should you take between removing from oven and quenching and why

A

10 - 15 seconds
To prevent interganular corrosion

19
Q

Why do we refrigerate rivets if we are not using them after quenching

A

6D

25
Q

What is the rivet spacing on a wing spacing to prevent inter-rivet buckling

A

3.75D for a solid rivet
4.5D for a hi- lok rivet

26
Q

What are the three methods of dimpling

A

Coin
Radius
Hot

27
Q

What method of dimpling is preferred and why

A

Coin dimpling
Allows for easy stacking and nesting

28
Q

How do you coin dimple on hard metals

A

Heat up the dyes to prevent cracking, known as hot or thermal dimpling

29
Q

Why do we dimple

A

If the skin is too thin
Causes knife edges if countersunk

30
Q

What are the three methods to countersink

A

Pneumatic rivet gun
Hand hammer
Squeezer

31
Q

What is the preferred method of riveting and why

A

Squeezing because it makes them all uniform is set up correctly

32
Q

If a rivet head is cracked what is it caused by

A

Incorrect heat treatment

33
Q

For a hi- lok what is the collar on an aluminium alloy rivet

A

Max of 3 degrees

34
Q

For a hi- lok what is the collar on an CRES rivet

A

0.5 degrees

35
Q

What is the advatange of a high lite and why

A

15% lighter than a high lok
Because the thread pitch run out - it only has 1

36
Q

What is the advantage if a cherry max and why

A

You can use any tool to install it because of the driving anvil

37
Q

What do you use to install a cherry lok
