We look forward to supporting you with our broad capabilities, from design and applications engineering, to high quality manufacturing, to global training and customer Hutter President and Chief Executive OfficerInnovative Fastening SolutionsProudly serving the aerospace industry since 1987, Click Bond supports global leaders in the design and manufacture of high performance platforms and systems.

2 Over nearly thirty years, we ve expanded our reach, bringing our capabilities and the benefits of adhesive bonded fastening to bear on the technical challenges of the marine, energy, and other industrial pioneer advanced solutions in the field of assembly hardware, utilizing our knowledge of the industries we serve and our customers challenges, the latest developments in material and process science, and our diverse and advanced manufacturing capabilities. The result is a line of elegant and innovative fastening solutions specifically developed to enable your designs and to make your products lighter, stronger, faster, safer, higher-value, and longer-lived.

3 In other words, Click Bond products and the support behind them simply make you more competitive in today s challenging Fastening SolutionsClick Bond, Inc. is headquartered in Carson City, Nevada, with additional manufacturing facilities in Watertown, Connecticut and Saltney, Wales, United Kingdom. A dedicated network of field-support professionals and authorized distributors support our customers, FastenersiiStrong Bonds. Easy SurfaceApply AdhesiveBond FastenerClick Bond adhesive-bonded fastener products are provided with proprietary installation fixtures that ensure consistent, high-strength bonded attachment to providing continuous positive pressure to the bondline during adhesive cure, our fixturing technology ensures that optimum results are achieved with every installation.

4 Additionally, these fixtures facilitate accurate fastener concert with a Click Bond structural adhesive properly selected for the intended application, our fixturing technology and proven surface preparation processes allow secure attachment to a wide variety of metals, thermoplastics, and simple, three-step installation sequence delivers consistent, high-performance results while streamlining manufacturing flows and reducing the cost of product manufacture, retrofit, and repair. NOTE: Installation details vary depending on substrate and part FastenersiiiAdhesive-bonded fastening solutions maximize design and work sequence flexibility while reducing assembly CYCLE TIMEA major share of shop floor rework cost relates to misdrilled holes, eliminated by adhesive-bonded fastening.
