Post subject: | Part Number Books Needed |
Hello All, I am looking for manufacturer specific hardware part number catalogs or manuals of any sort for Lockheed, North American, Douglas, Martin, Grumman, and Boeing. I need to identify over 750K lbs of bolts rivets nuts etc. etc. numbers needed would be for aircraft built from 1935 through 1985 in Burbank, Inglewood and greater Los Angeles area. I will pay top top dollar for copies or originals Thanks in advance ! Tom Neely earlscentral@yahoo.com |

This is probably not much help to you, but the hardware part numbers you are looking for are proprietary to the airframers you listed and are considered intellectual property. That being said, unless it is something special, it probably crosses over to a MIL-SPEC or a vendor part number. You might check with some of the fastener companies or with some of the online services that have popped up like IHS (http://parts.ihs.com/products/procurement/catalogxpress-vendors/index.htm). |

BDK Yes I know. However I have found some manuals for the P38 and Constellation that have the govt part number and lockheed "poo"#. Also I have some douglas # books I know there is more out there As for the generic AN Nas and MS numbers I have all of those books already. We are hunting specific machined parts and various fabbed items part numbers for all of the models built from 1938 to about the late 80's (out of Burbank especailly) Most of the hardware boxes are marked with both numbers I am trying to decipher them. The ones that have the aircraft company on them are easy its the boxes without logos or aircraft models that are the puzzle Tom |

BDK ok here is an example I have 10 boxes of 10 each with this on them as I write it here....... PLANT: INGLEWOOD STK no: 6590-700093-329 NAS 101-296 Nomenclature: Welded Assy Tube Steel DATE: 6-3-57 Method Packaged: Method 3 Contract # AF14(604)4983 I suspect its for Northrop or North American as that was the pallet it was on. Also the NAS 101-296 doesnt show up in my bible of NAS numbers Here is another one...... 40 bags of these.... MBAD-5306-206-5358 BOLT 5 EA. AF04(647)-114 Douglas Aircraft co. 1-7-1958 now multiply this by 750,000 and thats what i have to dig through and identify The run of the mill AN NAS and MS stuff I have handled. its these GOVT "530" numbers and variations that are giving me the headache |

Also the NAS 101-296 doesnt show up in my bible of NAS numbers Quote: Welded Assembly - Tube, 3/8 O.D., Steel, Threaded Rod Ends Superseded - October 1946 (Rev. 1) [Use: AIA/NAS NAS 358]
NAS-101 WELDED ASSEMBLY - TUBE, 3/8 O.D., STEEL, THREADED ROD ENDS INACTIVE FOR NEW DESIGN USE NAS 358 ENG. REF.: Standard for use with NAS-98, NAS-99 and NAS-100 Control Rod Assemblies or any similar assemblies. -296 means it is a 296" long tube fillet welded to two AN490-6 threaded rod ends. I got this from IHS "Specs & Standards." The AN Spec was approved in June 1942. |

These were last bought in 2007 for $8.33 each by the Navy, Air Force and Defense Logistics Agency. Info from IHS "Haystack." |

BDK you are hired! So what aircraft did this stuff go on ? |

Your guess is as good as mine, but the bolts are still being procured and in inventory... Any contract numbers are so old and the aircraft obsolete in the government inventory that they aren't in the current (electronic) system so it is hard to track. I wish I knew of an online site to look up obsolete contract numbers. |

BDK ![]() And not much AT6 stuff yet that we have run across Actually we found some early bolt packs with "EC3" on them with N/A Aviation printed on the slip. Have no idea what they go on though REMEMBER JUST HARDWARE! actually if you could help me find a home for the electrical stuff that would be great. I want to dump it all ( cheap ) to one collector / dealer /mechanic when its sorted out to make room for the titanium stuff coming in now Tom Neely |
