Hi-Lok Installation Sockets by Omega Technologies are expertly crafted for precision and durability to aid in the installation of Hi-Lok fasteners. Hi-Lok fasteners are essential in creating strong and stable assemblies in commercial and military aircraft.
How to Use Hi-Lok Installation Sockets
Hi-Lok Installation Sockets are engineered for use with Hi-Lok Fastening Systems, which consist of a pin and a collar that when combined, provide a permanent and vibration-resistant fastening solution.
Setup: Select the correct size and type of Hi-Lok Installation Socket according to the Hi-Lok fastener being used. This ensures a perfect fit and prevents damage to the fastener and the tool.
Attachment: Attach the socket to a compatible Omega Technologies Hi-Lok Ratchet. The socket should securely snap or twist into place, indicating it is ready for use.
Operation: Align the socket with the Hi-Lok collar or pin, depending on the design of the socket. Apply steady pressure to engage the fastener, and use the Hi-Lok Ratchet to tighten to the desired torque value. This precision ensures the joint’s integrity and strength.
Inspection: After installation, visually inspect the joint to ensure that it is secure and that there is no damage to the surrounding area or the fastener itself.
Following these steps can significantly enhance the efficiency of assembly operations, reducing both time and labor costs while ensuring high-quality results.
