Commercial Airplanes 777 Service Bulletin ALERT SummaryNumber: 777-55A0018Original Issue: July 27, 2011 ATA System: 5510 SUBJECT: STABILIZERS - Horizontal Stabilizer - Pivot Pin - Inspection, Rework, and Replacement

THIS BULLETIN IS SENT TO THE OPERATORS OF RECORD OF THE AIRPLANES SHOWN IN PARAGRAPH

1.A., EFFECTIVITY. IF AN AIRPLANE HAS BEEN LEASED OR SOLD, SEND THIS SERVICE BULLETIN TO THE NEW OPERATOR. IF APPLICABLE SPARES HAVE BEEN SOLD, SEND THIS SERVICE BULLETIN TO THE NEW OWNER.

CONCURRENT REQUIREMENTS None.

BACKGROUND This service bulletin gives instructions to replace the existing horizontal stabilizer pivot pins with new or reworked pivot pins that have improved resistance to corrosion. If the work given in this service bulletin is not done, horizontal stabilizer pivot pins with corrosion could eventually crack and fracture. A fractured horizontal stabilizer pivot pin may cause excessive horizontal stabilizer freeplay and structural damage significant enough to result in loss of control of the airplane.

The left and right horizontal stabilizer pivot joints each contain inner and outer pivot pins, along with spacers, washers, and retaining hardware. These parts join the horizontal stabilizer to the section 48 stabilizer support bulkhead at body station 2370.

Boeing has received several reports of horizontal stabilizer pivot pin corrosion damage on the outer diameter chrome surface. One operator sent a corroded pivot pin to Boeing for analysis. Upon close examination, Boeing found micro cracks in the chrome plating of the pivot pin. Some of the micro cracks extended into the base metal.

Accomplishment of this service bulletin will remove the micro-cracking process condition found in existing horizontal stabilizer pivot pins and ensure that the pins are free of corrosion damage that could result in pivot pin fracture.

Boeing Fleet Team Digest (FTD) article 777 FTD 55-10001 is related to this service bulletin.
