Abstract: A locking tab washer for rotatably locking a bolt fastened to a component in an aircraft engine has a body with an opening and at least four locking tabs positioned about the opening and circumferentially spaced apart from one another at integer multiples of a common angle relative to the center of the opening. The locking tabs are bendable towards to rotatably lock the bolt. The locking tab washer also has a retaining feature positioned about the opening and operable to rotatably retain the locking tab washer to the component.

Abstract: An assembly method is provided during which a first component is arranged with a second component. The first component is secured to the second component using a fastener assembly. The fastener assembly includes a fastener element and a washer. The fastener element includes a wrenching feature. The washer has a full-hoop annular body with a cylindrical outer surface. The securing includes: mating a socket device with the fastener element and the washer, the socket device engaging the wrenching feature and the cylindrical outer surface; and rotating the fastener element about an axis using the socket device to tighten the fastener assembly and clamp the washer axially between the first component and the fastener element. The socket device centers the washer to the fastener element during the rotating.

Abstract: A coupling nut for sealingly engaging a ferrule of a fluid line to a component of a hydraulic system, has: a shank extending along a central axis and having threads to engage a nipple, the threads extending circumferentially around the central axis, the shank defining an inner passage extending along the central axis and sized to receive the fluid line; and a head extending from the shank circumferentially around the inner passage relative to the central axis, the head: defining faces circumferentially distributed about the central axis and edges at junctions between the faces, the faces including torque-transmitting faces each facing a direction having a circumferential component relative to the central axis, and having a cross-section in a plane normal to the central axis, the cross-section defining a plurality of symmetry planes containing the central axis, the torque-transmitting faces free of intersection with the plurality of symmetry planes.
