BobTail - The next step in LockBolt evolution

The latest LockBolt in the Huck product range from Alcoa Fastening Systems is the BobTail. One key advantage of this fastener over conventional lockbolting systems is the lack of a break off pintail. As a result of this, there is no waste material to collect and dispose of post-installation leading to fewer manual processes and time saving benefits.

The installation system provides a smooth, shock-free process with significantly reduced maximum noise levels, typically less than 70dB. The elimination of the shock load and reduced noise can offer real and significant health and safety benefits. The absence of a pin-break also eliminates the potential corrosion site of the bare metal at the pin-break point, which can lead to substantial gains in fastener service life. Available in diameters – 4.8mm, 6.4mm, 7.9mm, 9.5mm, 12mm, 14mm, 16mm, 20mm, 25.4mm For more information visit – www.afshuck.net Freephone – 0800 019 8180 Email – info@afshuck.net
