Fastener technology designed for AAM, no holes, less weight, easy installation.
Adhesive-bonded fasteners have been trusted for decades on thousands of commercial and military jets worldwide.
Click Bond surface mounts preserve the structural integrity of composite materials by requiring zero holes for installation; also eliminating the need for structural buildup around mounting points. This not only saves weight in the overall design of the aircraft, but also allows the designer to incorporate thinner and more advanced materials. Becaue these fasteners require no installation holes, placement is not locked in by pre-drilled holes.
Available in aluminum, stainless, and thermoplastic, these nutplates, studs, standoffs, and cable-tie mounts offer the ultimate flexibility in mounting solutions. Click Bond products are designed to extend product life, reduce labor costs, facilitate more simplified repairs, and streamline the manufacturing process.
Click Bond is the leading designer and manufacturer of lightweight mounting and fastening solutions for AAM, commercial and military aerospace, industrial, surface vehicle, and space exploration applications. Browse our entire line of adhesive-bonded fasteners by clicking here.

Nutplates that Eliminate the Need for Rivet Holes
Thousands of Click Bond rivetless nutplates are currently used on both commercial and military aircraft. Adhesive-bonded nutplates don’t require the two rivet-mounting holes needed by riveted nutplates, reducing nutplate installation time by 68%. They provide a high-strength bonded attachment to a variety of materials. Our split-beam nutplates provide approximately 250 reuse cycles, while reducing galling and thread seizing. FLEXBOND® sleeve nutplates provide secondary mechanical retention in addition to the adhesive and lightning strike protection. Learn More.
Swivel Cable-Tie Mounts
Composite-base, swivel cable-tie mounts with nylon or PEEK saddles offer user-designed placement schemes for routing at any angle with the added benefit of aluminum or lightweight composite bases.
Studs and Standoffs
Bonded studs and standoffs create attachment points where drill-through holes or hotwork is not applicable, all while preserving the structural integrity of the substrate.
Adhesive-bonding is ideal for attaching to highly stressed, fatigue critical, pressurized, or fluid boundary structures. That's because there are no installation holes to penetrate the surface.
