DRIVE SHAFTS / CLUTCHES / COUPLINGS
INSPECTION / TEST
1. Input Drive Shaft Inspection
The input drive shaft is a high speed,
highly stressed, dynamically balanced
unit, subject to failure from damage, han
dling or improper maintenance. It should
be treated like any other fine precision
aircraft component and handled in accor
dance with the procedures outlined.
An input drive shaft that is subjected to
conditions other than normal operation
conditions, such as, but not limited to sud
den stoppage, fire, flood, gearbox failure,
hard landing, excessive misalignment,
vibration, etc., must be thoroughly in
spected and/or replaced.
The inspection procedures called out in
this document are critical. Therefore, it is
mandatory that the requirements for in
put drive shaft replacement be “strictly
adhered to.”
A. Center Tube
NOTE:
When you look at damage, careful dis
tinction must be made between the base
metal and the brown-colored primer.
(1). Examine the center tube for dents,
nicks, or scratches.
(2). Measure the depth and diameter of all
dents, nicks, and scratches.
(a). A dent, nick, or scratch that is more
than
0.005 inch (0.13 mm) deep
and
1.00 inch (25.4 mm) long
is not
permitted.
(b). Dents that blend smoothly into
adjacent surface area with no sharp
change in contour and are not more
than
0.015 inch
(0.38 mm) deep
and
1.00 inch (25.4 mm) long
are
permitted.
(c). Nicks and scratches less than
0.005
inch
(0.13 mm) deep
and
1.00 inch
(25.4 mm) long
can be blended out.
(d). If there is a dent, nick, or scratch
more than the specified limits,
replace the input drive shaft.
(3). Examine the center tube for evidence of
deformation.
(a). If there is deformation, replace the
input drive shaft.
B. Flanges
(1). Examine the flange of the shaft for
cracks or fretting.
(a). If there are cracks or fretting, replace
the input drive shaft.
(2). Examine the flange of the shaft for
corrosion.
(a). Corrosion less than
0.006 inch (0.15
mm) deep
which can be polished out
is permitted.
(b). If the corrosion is more than
0.006
inch (0.15 mm) deep
, replace the
input drive shaft.
(c). If the corrosion marks are more than
0.006 inch (0.15 mm) deep
replace
the input drive shaft.
C. Mounting Bolts
(1). Do a torque check on the mounting
bolts.
