HOWMET AEROSPACE® HUCK®...

HOWMET AEROSPACE® Inc. (formerly ARCONIC Inc.) develops and manufactures high performance, engineered products and solutions for the aerospace, industrial gas turbine, commercial transportation and oil and gas markets.

HOWMET FASTENING SYSTEMS product range offers the greatest breadth and depth of fastening solutions available including: self-locking nuts, quick-release fasteners, draw latches, threaded inserts, lock-bolts, and structural blind fasteners.

HUCK® lockbolts and structural blind fasteners form part of HOWMET FASTENING SYSTEMS and they are designed to provide permanent, vibration-resistant, superior-quality joining solutions for use in industrial applications. HUCK® fasteners offer high tensile, shear and clamp properties and  they are suited to applications where the joints are integral to the structure. Offering a clean and safe alternative to welding and a more efficient fastening method than standard nuts and bolts, HUCK® fasteners offer benefits which other fastening methods cannot, including quick and easy installation, elimination of re-checking / replacement, and ultimately cost reductions.

HUCK® BOM® super strong structural rivets are a great alternative to welding and they are often used as a replacement for welding. One HUCK® BOM® rivet can be used instead of up to four bolt and nuts. Their unique push and pull installation design make them ideal for military vehicles, auto suspensions, high security fencing, rail car assembly and so much more. Available in a range of diameters starting from 4.8mm (3/16") to 19.1mm (3/4") they are resistant to tampering and vibration with exceptional shear and tensile strength. Other fasteners within HUCK® product range include BOBTAIL® lockbolt, MAGNA-LOK®, HUCKLOK®, MAGNA-BULB® and AUTO-BULB™  structural blind fasteners.

HOWMET AEROSPACE® (ARCONIC)...

Anchor nuts (aka nutplates or anchor plates) are terms used interchangeably and relate to stamped sheet metal fasteners with an internally threaded tube and a plate with two clearance holes for rivets. They are used in blind mounted panel applications in aerospace and other industrial sectors where hex nuts cannot be used or an attached nut is required for ease of maintenance. 

Anchor nuts can be Fixed or Floating, the latter being easier to use due to their built-in nut (threaded hole) able to "float" slightly thus providing a convenient connection point for threaded rods, such as bolts, from the backside. In the case of Fixed anchor nuts, the built-in nut is static (i.e. without the capability to “float”) and the threaded rod must be positioned perfectly over the hole. Self-locking anchor nuts are those with a built-in locking mechanism preventing them from loosening over time from vibrations. They are extensively used in aerospace, automotive, and construction industries.

HOWMET AEROSPACE Inc. (formerly ARCONIC Inc.) develops & manufactures high performance, engineered products & solutions for the aerospace, industrial gas turbine, commercial transportation and oil and gas markets. ALCOA FASTENING SYSTEMS (ALCOA), now a business unit of  HOWMET AEROSPACE® is one of the largest manufacturers of aerospace hardware in the world. SIMMONDS®, a HOWMET AEROSPACE® business unit, specialises on self-locking & special nuts. Their self locking nuts come in different types (series) offered in different materials and sizes, and can be reused at least 15 times without affecting the nut's performance. They are lightweight and extremely durable, exhibit a very strong locking performance & can be used in a wide temperature range.

HOWMET AEROSPACE® manufactures and offers through their different business units a wide range of anchor nuts, fixed or floating, in different materials, finishes, and sizes. They are intended for use in different aerospace and industrial applications. Some of HOWMET AEROSPACE® nutplates are listed and many more (not currently listed) can be offered through our network of co-operating suppliers. Sold in pieces or in packs where the number of anchor nuts per pack is indicated after the letters "PK" in the product SKU.
