BOM

Insert the fastener into the hole and slip the installation tool over the pintail. 1 Press the trigger to initiate pulling action. As the tool pulls on the pintail, the unique collar design ”stands off” the swaging action until the maximum allowable bulb is formed on the backside. 2 Continued pulling on the pintail draws the work pieces together and the swaging anvil overcomes the standoff and moves down the length of the collar, securely locking the collar to the pin. 3 Once the collar is swaged, the tool ejects the fastener and releases the puller to complete the sequence. 4 Secure, Fast Installation 1 When the pin separates near flush, the BOM fastener is installed correctly. The BOM fastener does not require surface preparation, grinding or filling after installation. 2 The collar is locked to the pin through the ”swaging” process, creating a high vibration resistant connection and the highest strength of any blind fastener. 3 Large bearing area on both sides of the work piece ensures a permanently held, tamper resistant joint. 1 3 2 3 3 Howmet Fastening Systems
