Details of Some Components Used for Subsidiary Services in Aircraft, Missiles and Space Vehicles. Now accepted as standard for the Concorde by British Aircraft Corporation is the Voi-Shan range of Taper-Lok aerospace fasteners recently introduced into the U.K. by Douglas Kane (Sealants) Ltd. The Taper-Lok is a patented fastener which has been proved by certain airframe manufacturers to increase the fatigue strength of structural joints by giving a more balanced stress pattern—as shown in fig. 3. This eliminates the points of high stress associated with plain shank bolts since it spreads the stress loading equally over the entire length of the shank.
