ABSTRACT:
Track fitting for anchoring seats or cargo to a slotted floor track in an aircraft includes a plurality of spaced lobe portions which are adapted to be positioned so as to underlie retaining portions of the track to restrict upward movement of the fitting. Forward movement is restricted by shear pin means positioned so as to engage the track immediately adjacent one of the lobe portions. In a preferred embodiment, the shear pin is slidably movable vertically into and out of engagement with the floor track. An angled slot in the shear pin body is engaged by a pin which is movable fore and aft by rotation of a threaded member to cause the shear pin to be completely removed from the floor track or forced against it so as to pre-load the fitting and prevent it from rattling.
