3.1
batch
quantity of finished parts, of the same type and same diameter, produced from the same material
obtained from the same melt, manufactured in the course of the same production cycle, following the
same manufacturing route and having undergone all the relevant heat treatments and surface
treatments
3.2
inspection lot
quantity of parts from a single production batch with the same part number which completely defines
the part
Correspond to the minimum tensile stress which the nut is able to withstand at ambient temperature without
breaking or cracking when tested with a bolt of a higher strength class.
Maximum test temperature of the parts.

3.3 Surface discontinuities
3.3.1
crack
rupture in the material which may extend in any direction and which may be intercrystalline or
transcrystalline in character

seam
open surface defect
3.3.3
lap
surface defect caused by folding over metal fins or sharp corners and then rolling or forging them into
the surface

defect that, according to judgement and experience, is likely to result in hazardous or unsafe conditions
for individuals using, maintaining, or depending upon the considered product, or that is likely to
prevent performance of the function of a major end item
3.7
major defect
defect other than critical, that is likely to result in a failure or to reduce materially the usability of the
considered product for its intended purpose

defect that is not likely to reduce materially the usability of the considered product for its intended
purpose, or that is a departure from established specification having little bearing on the effective use
or operation of this product

3.11
acceptance quality limit
AQL
quality limit which in a sampling plan corresponds to a specified but relatively high probability of
acceptance
Note 1 to entry: It is the maximum per cent defective (or the maximum number of defects per hundred units)

3.12
finished nut
nut ready for use, inclusive of any possible treatments and/or surface coatings, as specified in the
product standard or definition document
3.13
definition document
document specifying all the requirements for finished nuts

self-locking torque
torque to be applied to the nut or bolt to maintain movement of rotation in relation to the associated
part, the assembly being under no axial load and the nut locking system being completely engaged with
the bolt (minimum protrusion of two pitches including end chamfer)
3.15
seating torque
tightening torque to be applied to the nut or bolt to introduce or to increase the axial load in the
assembly
3.16
unseating torque
untightening torque to be applied to the nut or bolt to reduce or remove the axial load in the assembly
3.17
breakaway torque
torque required to start unscrewing the nut or bolt with respect to the associated part, with the nut
locking device still fully engaged on the bolt, but after the axial load in the assembly has been removed
by unscrewing half a turn followed by a halt in rotational movement
3.18
wrench feature torque
torque to be applied to the wrenching feature of the nut
4 Quality assurance
4.1 Qualification
The qualification procedure for aerospace standard products (e.g. according to EN 9133 or an
equivalent aerospace accepted and established qualification procedure) shall be used and documented
according to the specified tests if not otherwise agreed between customer and supplier.
Qualification inspections and tests (requirements, methods, numbers of nuts) are specified in Table 1.
They shall be carried out on:
— each type and diameter of nut;
— 46 nuts selected from a single inspection lot by simple random sampling.
The test programme may possibly be reduced, or the qualification of a nut be granted without
inspection or testing. Any such decision shall be based on the results obtained on similar types and
diameters of nuts provided that the design and manufacturing conditions are identical.
Table 2 indicates the allocation of nut samples for the inspections and tests.
4.2 Acceptance
4.2.1 Purpose
Acceptance inspections and tests (requirements, methods, numbers of nuts) are specified in Table 1;
they shall be carried out on each production batch or inspection lot. Nuts from the batch or lot to be
tested shall be selected by simple random sampling.
