Aircraft engineering poses unique challenges from avionics, printed circuit boards, sensors, actuator valves, and auxiliary power units to airframe, braking systems, landing gear, cargo container equipment, and engines. Components are often required to withstand extreme shock, G-force, vibration, and thermal stress, making it crucial that the selected fasteners are of the highest quality. STANLEY® Engineered Fastening offers products, available in a wide variety of materials, coatings, and styles, providing innovative and reliable solutions that fit challenging aerospace applications.
Avionics
Sophisticated electronic aircraft equipment, including control, monitoring, communication, navigation, weather, and anti-collision systems, requires sophisticated fastening equipment to guarantee flawless performance of all electronic devices and uninterrupted communication between the aircraft and ground control. STANLEY® Engineered Fastening offers a variety of innovative high-quality fasteners in many sizes and materials to accommodate the most complex electronic assemblies.
Satellite & Spacecraft
To withstand the vibration and high-temperature extremes induced during rocket launch, atmospheric re-entry, and the subzero chill of space, design engineers require the most reliable fastening components, which are resistant to thermal expansion and contraction. The fasteners also have to remain tight without the opportunity for servicing. STANLEY® Engineered Fastening offers a comprehensive selection of fastening products to ensure accurate performance of igniters, pistons, engine bolts, and diverse components for space satellites, probes, rockets, and other space vehicles.
To survive the vibration and high temperatures of launch, we require the most reliable locking engagement thread. Screws must remain tight without opportunity for retightening. With conventional threading, however, screws loosened up and backed out under testing. The Spiralock thread form retained a tight seal at 300° C. Once torqued down properly, the screws stayed put in the threads, which helped us meet our flight schedule.
