Foreword
Publishing information
This British Standard is published by BSI Standards Limited, under licence from
The British Standards Institution, and came into effect on 29 February 2016.
It was prepared by Technical Committee ACE/12, Aerospace fasteners and
fastening. A list of organizations represented on this committee can be obtained
on request to its secretary.

Supersession
This British Standard supersedes BS A 266 to A 271:1977, which is withdrawn.

Information about this document

This British Standard has been prepared to provide a range of 80 Tf/in2
(1 100 MPa) to 90 Tf/in2 (1 250 MPa) titanium alloy bolts with UNJF profile
threads and close tolerance shanks for aerospace use. The lengths of the bolts
are in fractional increments. Dimensions for oversize shank diameters are also
included.
When considering the use of cadmium plated titanium bolts, attention is drawn
to Def Stan 00-970 Pt.1/12 Section 4 Leaflet 8, which recommends certain
limitations on their use.
When bolts are drilled for split pins, they are suitable for use with hexagonal
castle nuts specified in BS A 242 to 245.
This is a full revision of the standard, and introduces the following principal
changes:
• updating and/or providing additional alternative reference document
numbers;
• adding alternative materials to the existing BS TA 28;
• adding reference document numbers for flushness control and the drive
recess; and
• specifying a temperature rating relating to the strength class.

Presentational conventions
The provisions of this standard are presented in roman (i.e. upright) type.
Its requirements are expressed in sentences in which the principal auxiliary verb
is “shall”.
Commentary, explanation and general informative material is presented in
smaller italic type, and does not constitute a normative element.

Contractual and legal considerations

This publication does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a
contract. Users are responsible for its correct application.
Compliance with a British Standard cannot confer immunity from legal
obligations.

BRITISH STANDARD BS 2A 266 to 2A 271:2016

1 Scope
This British Standard specifies the materials, dimensions, finish and inspection
requirements for titanium alloy bolts with 100° countersunk heads and UNJF
threads for aerospace use.
NOTE The values in Imperial British units are to be regarded as the standard.

CAUTION. A269 has cadmium as a plating material, which has been restricted
and/or banned for use in many countries owing to environmental and health
concerns; they should not be used in new product designs. Local officials
should be consulted about any concerns on using cadmium-plated parts.

3 General requirements
3.1 The bolts shall be manufactured, inspected and tested in accordance with
the requirements of BS A 101.

3.2 All bolts shall conform to the dimensions and tolerances given in Table 1,
Table 2, Table 4 and Figure 1. Unless otherwise specified, the dimensions are
those before the application of the protective finish.

3.3 The principles of flushness control and recommended gauging practice shall
be in accordance with BS A 273.

3.4 The dimensions of the Hi-torque speed drive recesses shall be as specified in
BS A 272.

3.5 The material and protective finish requirements shall be as specified in

Table 3.

b) Enlarged view of head

Notes
1)
The thread lead and runout shall conform to the requirements of SAE ITC RS678.
2)
See Figure 2 and Table 4 for length dimensions “E”, “L” and “M”.
3)
The split pin hole option was originally designed to suit the hexagonal castle nuts specified in BS A 242 to 245.
4)
Holes shall have the sharp edges removed.
5)
For flushness control and gauging of head and drive recess, see BS A 272 and BS A 273.
