ABSTRACT:
A fuseable torsion shaft for use within an aircraft flight control surface actuation system. The fuseable torsion shaft includes a shear tube which exhibits high strength elastic characteristics during normal operation up to a predetermined shear torque level. Thereafter, a torsion shaft having lower strength plastic characteristics provides torque transmission capability for a limited deflection.
