HI-LITE™

Back to Fastener Specific Archive

HI-LITE™ pins represent a breakthrough in aerospace fastening technology, offering a high-strength, controlled preloaded system for structural assemblies. These pins are designed to provide a versatile solution for various aerospace applications, from wings to fuselage, engine fairings, and more. HI-LITE™ pins are the evolved version of HI-LOK™ pins, boasting improved features and performance. HI-LITE™ pins are engineered to deliver controlled preload, ensuring optimal performance and reliability in critical aerospace structures. They are available in a wide range of materials and coatings, making them suitable for installation in various structures and environments. Designed for shear and/or tension applications on plain or sloped surfaces, HI-LITE™ pins offer versatility and flexibility in assembly.

Traditional Removal Methods:

Traditionally, HI-LITE™ pins are removed using conventional tooling methods, which may involve drilling or grinding. However, these methods can be time-consuming, labor-intensive, and may pose risks to surrounding structures. Moreover, traditional removal methods may generate debris or foreign object debris (FOD), compromising safety and efficiency.

Why E-Drill Is Better:

E-Drill offers a superior alternative for the removal of HI-LITE™ pins, overcoming the limitations of traditional methods. With its advanced technology, E-Drill enables fast, precise, and non-contact removal of fasteners, minimizing the risk of damage to surrounding structures. E-Drill’s controlled and efficient process ensures minimal disruption and downtime during maintenance operations. Additionally, E-Drill eliminates the generation of debris or FOD, enhancing safety and reliability in aerospace applications. By leveraging E-Drill for HI-LITE™ pin removal, aerospace professionals can achieve optimal performance and maintain the integrity of critical structures with ease and confidence.
