Available in straight or radius designs, gang channel nuts provide floating, self-locking,
self-wrenching nuts in pre-established position. The nut elements can be channel-fixed
or individually removable.

Barrel Nuts

Barrel Nuts

Barrel nuts provide self-wrenching, self-locking attachment points within thick structural
joints, thereby reducing the cost and weight of drilling through the entire structure and
using a longer bolt. They are designed for use with high tensile strength bolts to join
load carrying members. Landing gear to fuselage, engine pods to wings, and nacelle and
fuel tank attachments are typical of the many places barrel nuts are used. Fabricated
in advanced aerospace alloys, designs include floating or nonfloating, metallic lock or
nonmetallic ring, tandem nuts with spreaders, spreaders that articulate, and barrel nuts
with attached retainers or lanyards.

Bearing Locknuts
Bearing locknuts are designed for shaft or spindle applications in aircraft engines,
gearboxes and transmissions to provide a positive rotational lock under vibratory
conditions and maintain precise torque pre-loads. PCCs STA-LOK system uses a
serrated washer that installs onto a serrated shaft and then snaps into or over the nut to
retain it. The precision and effectiveness of this mechanical lock has made it the industry
design standard. Bearing Locknuts are available in advanced aerospace alloys with either
internal or external threads, internal or external wrenching slots or holes, and metallic or
nonmetallic locking devices in sizes from 0.5 to 8 inches in diameter.

Shank Nuts
Bearing Locknuts

Blind Rivets

Blind Rivets

For over 70 years, Cherry has been a leading aerospace rivet brand. Cherry Blind Rivets were
originally developed for structural assembly in areas of the aircraft where installation access is
limited to one side of the structure. However, the wide range of standard designs, installation
efficiency, and ergonomic benefits has made them a preferred alternative to solid rivets in many
applications.
The CherryMAX system utilizes a simple, single pulling head to install many diameters, head
configurations and materials including bulbed versions for thin sheet and bearing load sensitive
applications and wiredraw versions for sheet take-up and hole filling.
The CherryLock system is designed with high tensile, shear, and fatigue strengths and
is particularly well suited to double dimple and high vibration areas.

Blind Bolts

Hole Cold
Working and
Fastening Systems

Hole Cold Working and Fastening Systems

For over 40 years, PCC has been the leader in the science of hole cold expansion to induce beneficial
residual stresses to improve the fatigue life and damage tolerance properties of holes and joints in
metallic aircraft structures. The cold expansion process has further been adapted for installation of
bushings, fasteners, and fittings in metallic and composite structure to also reduce manufacturing
and maintenance flow-time and cost. We produce the complete line of hole cold expansion tooling,
bushings, fasteners, and other products that utilize the cold expansion method.
The ForceMate installation method for cold expanding a bushing into a hole is a commonly used
system for performance critical joints including the attachment of aircraft wings, tailplanes, engine and
weapons pylons, flight controls, landing gear, and helicopter rotors. ForceMate provides a lower cost
installation method for bushings and has been proven through years of testing and in-service history to
enhance the fatigue life and damage tolerance of bushed installations. The system also offers
superior resistance to corrosion, vibration, and bushing migration under applied loads.

PCC cold expanded products are

the basis of hundreds of Service
Bulletins and Technical Orders for
aircraft repair solutions. Products
such as ForceMate bushings are
used for in situ repairs to avoid
major structural or component
replacement and ensure rapid
return of aircraft to service.
