Mark, the main difference is price. In the ACS listing an AN3-7A (undrilled) is $0.12 -- an AN3-7 (drilled) is $0.52. That 40-cent difference would build up when you start ordering your hardware. Chuck ----- Original Message -----

Mark,Aside from the cost difference, my earlier version of AC43.13 states,".Bolts 5/16" diameter and over with cotter pinholes may be used withself-locking nuts." Inference from that, along with my recollection from A&Pschool, is that smaller bolts with cotter pinholes would not be used withfiber locknuts.Gary from Cool _____
