Overview
The AN3-10A Aircraft Bolt serves as a fundamental structural fastener within various airframe assemblies, playing a critical role in securing components under both shear and tension loads. This particular bolt, identified by its AN (Air Force-Navy) standard designation, is a precision-machined, cadmium-plated alloy steel hex head bolt with a drilled shank. It is designed for applications requiring a positive locking mechanism, typically achieved through the use of a castellated nut secured by a cotter pin, or a self-locking nut. Its primary function is to provide reliable, high-strength attachment points throughout an aircraft's structure, ensuring the integrity of critical connections.
