Lockbolts, Structural Blind Fasterners and Tooling

1 Flush-breaking, lock-groove design provides a wide grip range to reduce inventory requirements. 2 Collar material swaged into the annular pin grooves forms a permanent, vibration-proof connection that promotes increased customer satisfaction and reduced warranty claims. 3 Hole preparation isn’t critical. Built-in system values yield high, consistent clamp loads and gap removal. Insert fastener through a prepared hole. The precision collar is placed over the other end. 1 The Huck installation tool is applied and engages the pin. When the tool is activated, it pulls the pin in a straight line while pushing down on the collar. 2 The tool moves forward over the collar, molding the collar material into the grooves of the pin. This process, called swaging, causes a precise stretching of the pin and collar, developing the fastener’s clamping force. 3 When swaging is complete the pintail is automatically tensioned off, flush with the end of the collar. The tool then pushes off from the collar. The result is a permanent, mechanically locked fastener 4 1 2 3 Secure, Fast Installation 22 Huck ® | HuckBolts ®
