Abstract

See full text

A component (10) is adapted for contact with a mating component (50) during attachment of the components to one another to form a related assembly in which a deformable pad (26) or pads improve stress distribution. The component includes a body having an interface surface in which the body is adapted to be contacted with the mating component at the interface surface of the body. One or more deformable pads are formed in the interface surface. Each deformable pad has a top surface that is offset outwardly from the interface surface relative to the body and a groove surrounding the deformable pad that is offset inwardly from the interface surface relative to the body.
