rivetless nutplates revolutionize the closeout process for structural areas with no backside access, including attachment of skins and access panels, completion of structural mate joints, installation of equipment, or securing of radomes and antennas. The small diameter rivet holes traditionally required for nutplate attachment are eliminated, improving structural integrity, reducing installation labor, and avoiding the potential for costly rework. And, unlike other rivetless nutplate systems incorporating mechanical retention features, Click Bond nutplates are not grip specific, and do not create structural stress discontinuities or require removal of parent material. Rather, a fast curing structural adhesive secures the nutplate to structure. To facilitate installation, a patented elastomeric fixture centers each nutplate on its fastener hole, provides clamp up during adhesive cure, and prevents intrusion of adhesive into the hole and nut threads. Following cure, the bond is permanent and impervious to typical aerospace and industrial environments. Should repair or modification necessitate nutplate removal, approved non-destructive methods are available
