 |
|
On page 18-4 step 1 we are instructed to rivet the nutplates to the fuel tank attach zees (T-1012's). Do we need to final drill the bolt holes to a certain size or are they the correct size already?
My holes have paint in them from priming so at the least, I need to run a bit through them to get the paint out. Can someone with unprimed Zee's tell me what size the hole is?
Sorry if this should be common knowledge but I wanted to make sure.
Thanks in advance,
Bill

If I had a memory I'd be dangerous. While building I have charts to check sizing. I do believe a K-1000-3 is for an AN 3 bolt. An an 3 bolt requires a #12 bit , going by memory. The Avery tool catalog had this information listed in it on page 57 a few years back. I think it is also in the red book from Van's.
I can find out for sure if no one helps out, I'll have to go to the hangar.

Bill, as is said, timing is everything. I just happened to prime my tank Zee's today.
So there is a little epoxy primer in the holes, however it is not real hard yet. Having said that, I was able to finger twirl a #13 drill bit but not a #12, as it seemed to catch some aluminum.
So since a #13 is .185", I expect the holes are .002 or .003" shy of a #12 hole. I'd drill them if it were me.
Hope this helps.
