Module 9: Fasteners (Core)
Outcome
Explore the types of
fasteners used by
machinists.
Indicators
(a) | Follow safe work practices when using fasteners, including maintaining a clean and organized work area. |
(b) | Identify fasteners based on specifications such as metric/SAE (e.g., Unified National Coarse [UNC], Unified National Fine [UNF]), grade, length, diameter and thread pitch or count. |
(c) | Decode the nomenclature associated with threaded fasteners. |
(d) | Describe the application of fasteners including pins, rivets, keys and self-locking tapers. |
(e) | Select and use appropriate tools to manipulate fasteners. |
(f) | Explore how adhesives and sealants are used as fasteners and how some are not compatible if mixed. |
(g) | Investigate the need for safe, proper handling of adhesives. |
(h) | Explain the importance of tightening sequence and torque values of specific fasteners. |
(i) | Utilize torque wrenches to properly tighten fasteners. |
(j) | Complete thread repair of damaged fasteners using a tap and die set. |
(k) | Select and use appropriate tools to extract broken fasteners. |
(l) | Describe the use of commercially available products to assist with the removal (e.g., penetrating oil) or securing of fasteners (e.g., Loctite). |
