Abstract
Disclosed is a taper bolt connection including a taper bolt received in a taper bush, a fastening nut and a washer, the taper bush having a continuous longitudinal slot, and the taper bush being capable of being spread open uniformly in the radial direction by means of a fastening nut screwable onto the taper bolt. Since the taper bolt and/or the taper bush have/has, at least in regions, an at least Teflon-containing coating, tribochemical processes between the taper bush wedge surface and the taper bolt wedge surface are largely avoided, so that the taper bolt connection can be released again without great effort even after a long period of connection. Furthermore disclosed is the use of the taper bolt connection for connecting a rudder unit to a carrying structure of a fuselage cell of an aircraft.
