Bonded fasteners are incredibly important to the Marine sector. However, like any component, they need to be installed and fitted correctly. In order to deal with unique factors like salt water, wave height and fluctuating temperatures, it’s essential to use the correct fasteners, as well as the proper bonding and adhesion techniques. Throughout this blog, […]

With digital appliances and radio communication systems being a cause for concern in many industries–especially the aviation sector–EMI disrupts verbal exchange systems, navigation gadgets, and flight controls. Modern aircraft structures depend on these pieces all working together, and without proper shielding, EMI/RFI is incredibly dangerous.  Electromagnetic interference can harm electronics on the ground and avionic […]

Do you need to secure the structural elements of an aircraft? In aerospace manufacturing, it’s the smallest (yet mighty) of components that play a critical role in the integrity and reliability of the final product. Precision in nutplate tooling and installation is indispensable to ensure safety, reliability, and compliance with stringent aerospace standards.  In this […]

In aerospace, fasteners and tooling need to tolerate incredibly high temperatures and perform without fail. Countersink holes are used in metalworking, woodworking, and manufacturing industries and are critical to aircraft manufacturing and maintenance. Without them, aircraft can fall apart. Aerospace countersinks ensure that aviation components are safe, reliable, and perform the way they should when […]

Whether it’s a spacecraft launch or a commercial aeroplane, aerospace industries require foolproof critical systems. The evolution of aerospace technology means challenges in safety, efficiency, and performance, and Click-Loc self-locking systems offer reliability and simplicity when fastening.  This blog will be your ultimate guide to Click-Loc systems and why they are essential for the aviation […]

If you are an engineer in the marine industry and often work with naval ships, ball lock pins have many safety applications you need to know about. Also called pip pins or safety pins, ball lock quick-release pins are used in place of nuts and bolts when frequent or quick assembly is required. This blog […]

You’ve probably heard of a cable tie mount before. It’s hard to break or cut, but it’s a great way to keep wiring organised. Grip Lock Ties, on the other hand, are dozens of times stronger and critical to heavy-duty applications in defence, aerospace, industrial, military, and many others. This blog will draw detailed comparisons […]

As an engineer in the aviation field, it is critical to consider how you’re routing aircraft cables. Electronic systems support the safety, reliability, and performance of aerospace vehicles. Aerospace-grade wiring specifically provides essential connectivity for instrumentation, power distribution, and communication. Modern aerospace electronic systems require high-performance wire and cable for commercial airliners and sophisticated satellites. […]

Safety and lock wires have been used in aerospace for decades; however, this method is time-consuming, so an alternative was made. The concept of Click-Loc was generated in response to a Pratt & Whitney U.S Air Force need for self-locking fluid fittings to replace the lock wire on the F119 engine. A year later, Moeller […]
