A rivetless nut plate for attachment to a panel via a panel bore, having a nut, a washer, and a cage that retains the nut and the washer. The nut plate has a nonactivated state and an activated state. In the activated state a portion of the cage is expanded to grip the panel bore, and the nut has split into two independent sections allowing one section to move throughout a constrained range of motion.

Rivetless nut plate

A reusable blind fastener including a bushing, a nut, a tail, a receiver, an expansion device, and a screw. The expansion device having an exterior surface that is discontinuous and configured for selective elastic deformation when engaging a portion of the screw.

Blind fastener

A fastener for attachment to a panel, having an inner skin and an outer skin, via a panel aperture in the outer skin. The fastener including an insert pillar, a base plate, a spring, and a top insert arranged and configured to allow longitudinal compression of the spring resulting in movement and deflection of components to promote ease of use, security, and durability.

Panel fastener

A captive fastener having multiple components selectively biased to improve durability, including a primary body, an actuator, a plurality of locking pins, a biasing system, a bushing, and an actuator biasing member. Application of a predetermined force to an actuator proximal end longitudinally displaces the actuator from an actuator first position to an actuator second position and forces a cam leading edge against a biasing member to retract a pin from an extended position to a retracted position that does not interfere with a thread pattern formed in the fastener. The actuator biasing member returns the actuator to the actuator first position upon removal of the predetermined force allowing the biasing member to bias the pin away from the retracted position.

Captive fastener

A cable terminator connector includes a screw and base having a first opening and a second opening. The first and second openings are configured to receive first and second cable portions wherein the screw is threaded into the base thereby pushing the first and second cable portions into the first and second openings and clamping the first and second cables portions into the base.

High strength single screw rope terminator connector

A crimp sleeve assembly includes a body made from titanium and has a first open end and a second closed end. The crimp sleeve crimps a Nitinol wire and a PTFE coated stainless steel wire. An axial end stop sleeve assembly has a sleeve crimped by an axial die assembly which forms a tip of the sleeve into a closed end bullet and/or tapered nose wherein the sleeve is crimped onto an end of a wire rope such that the wire rope does not protrude from the closed end bullet and/or tapered nose and wherein the axial die assembly minimizes flash during crimping.

Crimp sleeve

A sleeve for terminating synthetic rope and coated wire rope has a body and a first channel, a second channel, and a third channel formed within the body. Each of the first, second, and third channels form a trilobular opening within the sleeve for receiving and crimping wire rope. The wire rope can have an eye splice formed at one end. A method of crimping the trilobular sleeve includes feeding the rope through the first channel of the trilobular sleeve, looping the rope through the second channel of the sleeve and then through the third channel of the trilobular sleeve, inserting the sleeve between upper and lower crimp dies, and pressing the sleeve between the dies, thereby crimping the sleeve to the rope.

Connector for synthetic and coated wire rope

A wire rope cutter includes a first handle and a second handle, a first cutting jaw and a second cutting jaw, a first pivot for pivotally connecting the first jaw and the first handle; and a second pivot for pivotally connecting the second jaw to the second handle. A third pivot pivotally connects the first handle to the second handle, and a fourth pivot pivotally connects the first jaw to the second jaw. The first jaw includes a web area having an elongated opening, and the second jaw includes a web area having an elongated opening. The third pivot is formed by a fastener extending through the elongated openings of the first jaw web area and the second jaw web area for pivotally connecting the handles together.

Compound wire rope cutter

A crimp sleeve for use with small enclosures has a body having an outer diameter and an opening having an inner diameter extending through the body. The sleeve joins a wire formed of stainless steel to a fiber formed of Vectran braid through the opening. The sleeve is formed of a material which has a high coefficient of friction relative to the wire, such as titanium.
