Hi folks,
I currently have a bolted joint closing 2 aluminium housings using short steel studs, 1.5mm thk steel washers and Kaynuts. On two of the studs I need to replace the steel washers with an aluminium bracket (also 1.5mm thick) but there is not enough thread length on the studs to retain the steel washers in the joint. Are there any mitigations I need to make to accommodate this change?
Many thanks,
Dave
