1 STARLITE NUT FAMILY New high strength titanium nut family

2 Designed for Composite, Titanium and Aluminum Alloy Structures, the STARLITE family provides an optimum alternative to current cadmium plated alloy steel or dry film lubed CRES nuts for new generation aircraft with extensive use of composite structure. Conventional Cadmium plated steel nut STR Titanium optimized nut MAIN FEATURES The STARLITE Titanium nuts meet the following requirements: Lightweight (savings against conventional alloy steel or CRES solutions). Designed to fit HI-LOK, HI-LITE or STL pins and compatible with standard bolts. Mechanical performance equivalent to existing steel or CRES nut standards on the market. Unmatched anti-galling due to combination of specific proprietary crimping process, optimized design and HI-KOTE 4 NC coating. No damage on composite material due to the optimized bearing surface. Available in a wide variety of diameters. ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY SOLUTION Compliance to health and environmental regulations using HI-KOTE 4 NC coating. HIGH PERFORMANCE The STR nut features reduced weight without compromising strength for replacement of conventional steel and CRES nut replacement: Ti6Al-4V raw material and fully optimized design reduce weight significantly. Additional volume reduction achieved within the low stressed area of conventional nuts design. WEIGHT SAVING 440+ lbs saving Low stressed area 220+ lbs saving STR 20K Steel Nuts Single Aisle Long range

3 STARLITE NUT FAMILY The wide range of STR nut types provides a solution for the main fastener systems: HI-LOK, HI-LITE, SLEEVE TAPER HI-LITE pins. Basic P/N Diameters (1/32 ) min. max.

4 USER-FRIENDLY ASSEMBLY The STARLITE design is suitable for a wide range of assembly constraints associated with composite structures. Cleaner work environment HI-KOTE 4 NC coating contains improved lubricating agents in its formulation in order to avoid the use of cetyl alcohol as a secondary lubricant, thus authorizing a cleaner work environment and good paint or sealant adhesion. Compatibility with shank oversize 0.5 Max Tolerant to structure and assembly variations STR nuts are compatible with nominal, 1st and 2nd oversize pins. A specific reference is required only for 3rd oversize. Structure slope variation of 0.5 is accepted by the STARLITE plain nuts. Self aligning nut version allows for installation up to 5 angle. Limited structure damage Optimized bearing area eliminates damage to the structure and a captive washer solution is proposed for more severe applications. Conventional nut with small bearing area Reliable assembly with Titanium pins LISI AEROSPACE proprietary crimping process and HI-KOTE 4 NC coating guaranty superior anti-galling and assembly performances. STARLITE nut with optimized bearing area Locking torque 1,50 12 Torque (N.m) 1,00 0, Torque (in.lbs) 2 0, Number of tightening 0 Special crimping process finite element simulation No galling and low variation of locking torque, even after 5 cycles on a ¼ diameter Titanium pin. Easy identification In addition to manufacturer symbol, all STR nuts are marked with their reference number for easy identification.

5 SECURE INSTALLATION Required tooling STR nuts may be installed by one mechanic with manual, pneumatic, electric or battery powered tools, using the following socket sizes: Pin Ø (1/32 ) Wrench size (in.) /32 1/4 9/32 5/16 3/8 1/2 9/16 5/8 11/16 25/32 15/16 1-1/16 1-3/16 1-5/16 Battery powered tool Pneumatic tool Electronic sensor driver for a controlled speed and torque during installation Proven installation parameters During the process of development of the STR nuts, many installation test data have been compiled to define best assembly parameters. LISI AEROSPACE supplies torque and speed parameters for each nut diameter, allowing optimized tension in the assembly. Reliable and easy inspection STR nut installation can be inspected using conventional tools and gages. Detailed installation recommendations are provided in our installation specifications available upon request.
