AIRCRAFT SOLID SHANK RIVET IDENTIFICATION AIRCRAFT HARDWARE Aircraft hardware is the term used to describe the various types of fasteners and assorted small parts used in the manufacture and repair of aircraft. In the aerospace industry there are over 30,000 different fasteners available. Many of these fasteners are specialized hardware specific to certain aircraft. Rivets are common to all aircraft and the types and range of sizes are standard across the industry. AIRCRAFT SOLID-SHANK RIVETS Rivets are one of the oldest fastening systems known, and have been used in manufacturing for centuries. Steel and brass rivets were used in the earliest aircraft. Solid shank aluminum rivets were introduced in 1919 with the German Junkers F13, the first civil all metal aircraft. Various factors, such as cost, weight, reliability and simplicity, all contribute to the fact that aluminum solid-shank rivets are still the most common means of joining fabricated members of an aircraft structure. Because solid rivets have evolved to satisfy various aerodynamic and structural requirements, fastener details such as material, strength and head style are numerous. Aircraft designers will specify particular standard fasteners in blueprints and shop manuals and, if manufacture and repair is to be carried out in accordance with such data, the mechanic must be able to identify all such fasteners by their part numbers, head markings and drawing symbols. 1919 Junkers F13: first strut free civil all metal aircraft.
