Hardware
All hardware descriptions prefixed with the letter M (M5x15) indicates
that the fastener is a metric fastener. The 1
st
number is the diameter
in mm (millimeters,) and the 2
nd
number is the fastener length in mm.
Hardware listed at ¼-20 x 1.5 is an Imperial fastener. The 1
st
number is the diameter, the 2
nd
number is threads per inch and the
final number is length. Smaller Imperial fasteners are numbered; for
example, the seal screw utilized on thrusters, grabbers and the
vacuum port is a 10-32 x 3/8; so a #10 screw is 32 threads per inch
and 3/8‟s of an inch in length.
Horiz
Horizontal.
HPDC
High Performance Brushless Thruster
ICC
Integrated Control Console. This console is used for command
and control of the LBV and video display only! It has external data
