Hucktainer Fastener System ® For Metal-Clad Polymer Core Composite and Fiberglass Reinforced Panel Structures. Weather resistant Installs in seconds Corrosion resistant Hucktainer ® Bringing Huck® quality to composite panel assemblies for trucks and trailers. Hucktainer has earned its reputation as the fastener of choice to provide consistent, controlled clamp, superior vibration resistance ® and fast, foolproof installation in truck trailers, truck bodies, cargo containers, and other structures fabricated from multi-ply composite panels. The Hucktainer installs with consistent pressure, reducing the potential for crushing or crazing FRP panels and metal-clad applications. Each Hucktainer features a heavy zinc plating that resists corrosion. For even greater anti-corrosion protection, plastic encapsulation is available. The option of custom colors offers fade-resistant protection, while an integral double seal helps keep the elements and other contaminants from invading the joint. Requiring only a few seconds to install, Hucktainer fasteners reduce assembly time. Unlike impact wrenches, the tools used to install Hucktainer fasteners are whisper-quiet and come in your choice of air-powered or hydraulic models. Comfortable, ergonomically designed grips combined with easy-to-pull triggers minimize muscle strain and the possibility of repetitivestress syndrome. Hucktainer is now also available in shorter lengths called Hucktainer MC, specifically designed to accommodate stack-ups associated with metal-clad panels as thin as 3/16” (.187). 3/16" Hucktainer® benefits • Fast, quiet, foolproof installation • Installs with consistent pressure, reducing crushing or crazing • Spiral lock system, breakaway pintail, and smooth bore sleeve • Heavy zinc plating resists corrosion • Integral seal keeps contaminants from invading joint / weather-resistant • Can never be over-torqued or under-torqued • Tamper-resistant • Custom coloring for encapsulations available • Shorter grips available for today’s thin metal-clad panels • RoHS compliant 2 Installation Sequence The pin and sleeve are inserted into the prepared hole. The installation tool is applied to the pintail. When the tool is activated, the sleeve is forced onto the spiral lock of the pin. The rotating action of the nose assembly allows the sleeve to turn freely. The sleeve is fully engaged on the pin and locks onto the pin’s splines to clamp the material tightly together. Continued pull of the tool causes the pintail to break away, which completes the installation cycle. Secure, fast installation 1. Plastic encapsulated head gives maximum corrosion protection. 2. C an be matched to specific fleet colors. UV resistant material is color fast and resists fading. 3. Integral seal resists water intrusion. 4. G rips available to cover application thicknesses from .187" to 1.875". 5. H eavy zinc plating provides additional corrosion protection. 6. Low profile head conserves cargo space. Direct-tension installation Conventional threaded fasteners may only engage a few threads when joining thin sheets, allowing panels to separate in response to vibration. By contrast, Hucktainer’s unique, direct-tension installation process provides for consistent clamp, ensuring accurate tension and a secure, durable connection, time after time. 3 Hucktainer MC ® Same high performance for today’s ultra-thin material. Hucktainer has been re-engineered to accommodate thinner stack-ups associated with metal-clad (MC) panels in truck and trailer assemblies. Like original Hucktainer, Hucktainer MC utilizes proprietary Huck technology, helping Hucktainer deliver both clamp and vibration resistance that can’t be matched by conventional threaded fasteners. In addition, Hucktainer MC also features an encapsulated head which forms an integral seal that helps keep the elements and other contaminants from invading the joint, and preserving good looks. If corrosion-resistant fasteners are not used in trailer body assembly, the chance of water damage significantly increases. Over time, this can affect joints and the surrounding metal-clad panels. Hucktainer® MC Hucktainer contributes a high degree of vibration and corrosion resistance when used with metal-clad panels. 4 Data and dimensions Materials and Finishes Metal Clad HLP Grip Range Grip No. Min Max -41 .187 -5 A B .312 .338 1.993 .250 .375 .400 2.055 -6 .312 .437 .462 2.118 -7 .375 .500 .525 2.180 -8 .437 .562 .588 2.243 -92 .500 .625 .650 2.305 Material Finish Sleeve Steel Zinc/Black Chromate Pin Steel Zinc/Clear Chromate Metal-Clad HLP Standard HLP Sleeve Steel Zinc/Gold Chromate Pin Steel Zinc/Clear Chromate Tensile (lbf) Metal-Clad HLP Standard HLP Grip Range Grip No. Min Max -93 .500 -10 A B .625 .562 2.170 .562 .687 .624 2.232 -11 .625 .750 .687 2.295 -12 .687 .812 .749 2.357 -13 .750 .875 .812 2.420 -14 .812 .937 .874 2.482 -15 .875 1.000 .937 2.545 -16 .937 1.062 .999 2.607 -17 1.000 1.125 1.062 2.670 -18 1.062 1.187 1.124 2.732 -19 1.125 1.250 1.187 2.795 -20 1.187 1.312 1.249 2.857 -21 1.250 1.375 1.312 2.920 -22 1.312 1.437 1.374 2.982 -23 1.375 1.500 1.437 3.045 -24 1.437 1.562 1.499 3.107 -25 1.500 1.625 1.562 3.170 -26 1.562 1.687 1.625 3.232 -27 1.625 1.750 1.687 3.295 -28 1.687 1.812 1.750 3.357 -294 1.750 1.875 1.812 3.420 Minimum Grip 1600 Mid Grip 1000 Maximum Grip 600 Standard HLP Minimum Grip 1800 Mid Grip 1200 Maximum Grip 800 Recommended Hole Size Hole Diameter .405-.421 NOTE: Only wide bearing pin HLPSGE( ) and/or wide bearing sleeve HLPSG should be used directly against FRP.

That is, it helps to keep the pin in the hole while placing a sleeve over the pintail. It also keeps the pins from falling back through from the shock of their neighboring fasteners being installed. HLPMC Pin Lock Colors -4 -5 -6 Now you can get pin locks that are color coded to help identify specific grip lengths of loose fasteners from a distance.
