  • Lightning and corrosion protection arrangement in an aircraft structural component
    Patent number: 9016615
    Abstract: A lightning and corrosion protection arrangement for a joint between an outer metallic part (11) and an aircraft structural component (13) completely or partially made of CFRP by means of a row of metallic rivets (15), that comprise inner and outer metallic layers (21, 25) and an intermediate dielectric layer (23), the inner metallic layer (21) in contact with said structural component (13) being thinner and bigger than the outer metallic layer (21) in contact with the metallic part (11), the intermediate dielectric layer (23) extending in an area bigger than the area of the foot (12) of the metallic part (11) by a predetermined minimum linear distance D1 between its edges, the outer metallic layer (25) extending in an area bigger than the area of the intermediate dielectric layer (23) by a predetermined minimum linear distance D2 between its edges.
