Fuel Tank Access Panel Nut Plates

[spectre6573]

Anybody have the PN for the nut plates on the access panels?

I am having my tanks resealed and a few if not all have been damaged and my IPC for the airplane doesnt show them.

ESNA-22-NA1K-02 is what mine shows but for the earlier birds.. Does your IPC show the panels?

It does and the screw but not the plates. I figured some NAS1473A3 would work.

Not sure about that, maybe someone else will jump in

I think it is more like one of these:

68NA1K3-02

BTW,

Ithe cap is still there, just cover it with sealant.

The lock plates get ruined because they get full of sealant. When you put the screw in it makes a hydraulic lock and pushes the cap off.

before you put the cover plates back on clean all the old sealant out of the nut plates with a small drill bit spun between your thumb and forefinger until the bottom is shiny.

Thanks guys.

Yeah some of the caps are gone and others are almost falling off or have so much sealant in there that I am afraid that once I clean them out they too will just break loose. I figured that since I am spending all this resources on the fuel tank reseal that I really dont want to cut corners on these nut plates. I will just replace them new.

 

Would hate to put fuel in there and find out I have a leak on a nut plate.
