Abstract

A means for attaching a metallic component to a non-metallic component using a compliant material having thermal properties intermediate those of the metallic component to a non-metallic component is provided. The method can accommodate CTE mismatches and wear-type problems common to many assemblies of dissimilar materials. In particular, the method provides a sufficient wear surface to accommodate relative motion and provide a durable wear surface that does not excessively wear/gall/mico-weld itself together and provides the necessary damping and motion for proper operation in aeronautical applications.
