Fastener Solutions that Minimize Drilled Holes, & Eliminate Welding
Whether above, below, or on the sea, marine environments are harsh. New builds and MRO’s have become more efficient and cost-effective with the emergence of adhesive-bonded fastening systems, which can help prevent galvanic corrosion in even the most challenging environments.
Adhesive-bonded technology offers significant installed cost savings because of its ability to streamline manufacturing processes while adding work sequence flexibility. And its versatility and ease of use provides a performance leap in repairs, retrofitting and upgrades of existing structures.
Adhesive-Bonded Standoffs Preserve Structural Integrity
Adhesive-bonded standoffs are suited for applications where separation between systems or components and structure is required. An extensive range of standoffs is available in multiple lengths and thread sizes with options for locking and non-locking threads.
Internally-fixtured standoffs allow for installation in constrained footprint applications while reducing disposable waste and eliminating the step of fixture removal following adhesive cure.
Adhesive-Bonded Mounts Minimize the Need for Drilling
Click Bond’s adhesive-bonded mounts offer enhanced design flexibility for routing of systems and protective blankets in both new construction and retrofit applications. Bonded attachment eliminates drilling and the resulting compromises to structural integrity, cost, and restrictions arising from stress considerations.
Mounts are available with baseplates and bodies manufactured from a variety of metallic and non-metallic materials. The thermoplastic saddles of cable-tie mounts are available in swivel and fixed options with some models offering a latching hasp. Cable-tie mounts allow retention of tubing and wire bundles with clamps.
Adhesive-Bonded Studs Eliminate Galvanic Corrosion
Click Bond’s adhesive-bonded studs permit clamped attachment of wire bundles and tubing to structure where a through-bolt and nut combination is undesirable or impossible. They are also well suited for securing junction boxes, enclosures, or other modular equipment.
Click Bond studs are available in a variety of metal and composite materials and include installation fixtures that promote accurate positioning and hold the fastener under positive pressure while the adhesive cures, optimizing bond strength. Both internal and external fixtures are conducive to automated or robotic installation for high-volume applications.
Click Bond fasteners are widely used on all military combatants and auxiliaries, as well as by leading offshore OEMs. For more information, and to order parts, call 775-885-8000. Click here to download a product brochure.
Many of Click Bond's products, such as the Clamp Mount CM459, the CM988 Flush Tie-Down Ring, and the CS922 High-Shock Deck Stud, are Lloyd's Register and ABS certified.
