Fastener Assembly
Installing and tightening fasteners is a simple procedure but one which is often done incorrectly.
Tightening fasteners to the proper torque keeps bolts tight, increases joint strength, creates friction
between parts to resist shear and improves the fatigue resistance of the connection. Unfortunately
fasteners are usually over tightened causing them to fracture or at least causing thread damage
making them impossible to disassemble.
It is strongly recommended that a lubricant such as
JTL-12555
Jet-Lube SS-20 Pure Copper Anti-
Seize be used on the threads to reduce friction which allows the fastener to be properly tensioned.
The best way to properly tension a fastener is to tighten the nut until the lock washer is flat and then
tighten it no more than an additional one quarter turn. This rule should be followed except for U-
bolts and the 1/4 x 2-3/4(70) boom to saddle screw where one additional full turn is required.
Tubing Assembly
In order to decelerate oxidation and to improve electrical conductivity a high quality RF conductive
anti-oxidizing compound should be used.
JTL-12555
Jet-Lube SS-30 is an ideal electrical joint
compound that ensures proper electrical connections between aluminum and copper metal parts
such as conductors, telescoping aluminum tubing, or other antenna and grounding parts. Apply a
thin layer to each metal to metal antenna connection with a brush or clean cloth. Be careful not to
accumulate excess material on other parts or yourself as it’s quite difficult to remove and virtually
impossible to clean out of clothing.
