Fatigue Improvement By Sleeve Coldworking

Document Number: 730905

Date Published: February 1973

Author(s):
Joseph L. Phillips - Boeing Commercial Airplane Co.

Abstract:
The sleeve coldworking process for fastener holes is a process that uses a tapered mandrel in conjunction with a disposable, prelubricated split sleeve to compressively prestress a significant zone around a fastener hole. This compressive prestressing offsets the stress concentration of the hole itself to produce substantial improvements in structural fatigue performance of fastened joints. The sleeve method allows higher degrees of prestressing than are possible with other methods and does not require precision controls and skills germane to other fatigue-rated hole preparation/fastener systems.
