A gas turbine engine rotor (14), including: a rotor disk (16) comprising a bolt hole (82) there through and a counterbore (86); a bolt (18) configured to fit in the bolt hole and when so disposed to define an end (72) protruding beyond the counterbore; and a nut (84) configured to be disposed in the
A gas turbine engine rotor (14), including: a rotor disk (16) comprising a bolt hole (82) there through and a counterbore (86); a bolt (18) configured to fit in the bolt hole and when so disposed to define an end (72) protruding beyond the counterbore; and a nut (84) configured to be disposed in the counterbore and to engage the protruding end. The counterbore is configured to permit limited eccentricity between the nut and the protruding end.

1. A gas turbine engine rotor, comprising: a rotor disk comprising a bolt hole there through and a counterbore;a bolt configured to fit in the bolt hole and when so disposed to define an end protruding beyond the counterbore; anda nut configured to be disposed in the counterbore and to engage the protruding end, wherein the counterbore is configured to permit limited eccentricity between the nut and the protruding end, andwherein the nut further comprises an annular undercut circumferentially surrounding and axially coincident with a first engaging thread and at least two more engaging threads,wherein the undercut forms a cantilever including a tapered section forming a conical outer surface of the nutwherein, in an installed state, a nut face end is in contact with a radial surface of the counterbore, and a cantilever face end is axially offset from the nut face end such that the cantilever is not in contact with the radial surface of the counterbore. 2. The gas turbine engine rotor of claim 1, wherein the counterbore is configured to prevent bottoming-out of bolt threads with nut threads. 3. The gas turbine engine rotor of claim 1, wherein the nut comprises a load face end configured to sit in the counterbore, and wherein an inner diameter of the counterbore is larger than an outer diameter of the load face end to permit the limited eccentricity. 4. The gas turbine engine rotor of claim 1, wherein the first engaging thread is set back from a load face of the nut. 5. The gas turbine engine rotor of claim 1, wherein the nut is configured to pro-vide less axial and radial support to the first engaging thread than to another thread, wherein the cantilevered shape of the undercut provides less axial and radial support to the first engaging thread than to another thread. 6. The gas turbine engine rotor of claim 1, wherein the nut protrudes from the counterbore when disposed in the counterbore. 7. A gas turbine engine rotor comprising a nut and bolt configured to secure plural rotor disks together, the nut comprising: a cylindrical body;a load face;a recess from the load face;a thread protrusion protruding into the recess toward the load face;and a first engaging thread and at least two further engaging threads disposed on an inside surface of the thread protrusion,wherein the recess includes a cantilevered shape including a tapered section forming a conical outer surface of the nutwherein an end of the thread protrusion closest to the load face is set back from the load face, andwherein in the installed state the thread protrusion is not in contact with the rotor disk. 8. The gas turbine engine rotor of claim 7, wherein the recess comprises an inner surface, the thread protrusion comprises an outer surface, and the nut comprises a fillet there between. 9. The gas turbine engine rotor of claim 8, wherein the recess inner surface, the thread protrusion outer surface, and the fillet are annular. 10. The gas turbine engine rotor of claim 7, wherein the thread protrusion comprises an outer surface tapered radially inward toward the first engaging thread. 11. The gas turbine engine rotor of claim 7, wherein the cylindrical body comprises a larger outside diameter at a body end proximate the load face than at an opposite end of the cylindrical body. 12. A gas turbine engine rotor, comprising: a rotor disk comprising a counterbore and a bolt hole there through; and a nut configured to fit into and protrude from the counterbore; wherein the counterbore is configured to permit limited eccentricity between the bolt hole and the nut, the nut further comprising a load face, a recess from the load face, and a thread protrusion protruding into the recess but not reaching the load face, wherein a first engaging thread and at least two more threads are formed in an inside surface of the thread protrusion, and wherein the recess includes a cantilevered shape including a tapered section forming a conical outer surface of the nut. 13. The gas turbine engine rotor of claim 12, wherein the counterbore is configured to laterally constrain the nut once the limited eccentricity is reached. 14. The gas turbine engine rotor of claim 12, the nut further comprising a load face end, wherein an inner diameter of the counterbore is larger than an outer diameter of the load face end to permit the limited eccentricity. 15. The gas turbine engine rotor of claim 12, the thread protrusion comprising an outer surface that tapers radially inward toward the first engaging thread. 16. The gas turbine engine rotor of claim 12, further comprising a bolt configured to be disposed in the bolt hole, to protrude past the counterbore, and to engage the nut. 17. The gas turbine engine rotor of claim 12, wherein the nut comprises a cylindrical body.
