Abstract
An internally threaded, segmented nut and conical bore for a pressure vessel are used to make removal of studs securing covers over openings through the pressure vessel wall. The segmented nut has a conical upper surface to mate with a corresponding surface of the conical bore when the stud is threaded through the internal thread of the nut and a load is applied. The segmented nut is easily replaced and the stud is easily removable due to the shape of the nut and bore. The segmented nut eliminates drilling and rethreading the bore to repair damaged threads.
