What are Lockbolts?

Lockbolts are strong and reliable fastening solutions used to securely join two materials together. They’re made up of two main components: a pin and a collar. When lockbolts are installed, the collar is pressed onto the pin to set a permanent connection. 

Unlike traditional bolts, lockbolts don’t loosen over time. This makes them suitable for demanding applications across different industries, where high strength and durability are essential. 

NeoBolts are a type of advanced lockbolt that offers exceptional strength and vibration resistance. They’re often used in heavy-duty applications such as construction and transportation. 

At Zygology, we supply a wide selection of lockbolts and neobolts for all your fastening needs. Our lockbolts are quick and easy to install and help set up strong, long-lasting joints for all types of projects.

Factors To Consider When Choosing The Right Lockbolts for You

Lockbolts come in a variety of types, each designed for different applications. Here are some factors to consider when choosing the right lockbolts for your projects:

Material

The material used to make lockbolts can affect their durability, strength, and suitability for different environments. Stainless steel lockbolts are ideal for harsh environments while aluminium lockbolts are suitable for applications where reducing weight is a priority. 

By choosing the right material, you can ensure your lockbolts perform well in their applications. 

Load Capacity

Load capacity is the amount of weight a lockbolt can safely hold. You need to choose lockbolts that can handle the specific loads expected in your project to avoid any safety risks. 

It’s best to assess load requirements to ensure your lockbolts can provide strong and reliable connections. 

Corrosion Resistance

Steel lockbolts  come zinc plated and passivated - which is fine for most applications, however  they may degrade over time in tough environments and compromise the structural integrity of your project. 

When you’re working in environments exposed to moisture, chemicals, or extreme temperatures, choose stainless steel lockbolts or those with special  high corrosion resistance platings to ensure stable and long-lasting performance. 

Vibration Resistance

Lockbolts designed to resist vibrations can maintain a secure connection and prevent loosening over time. 

Selecting lockbolts with high vibration resistance in applications where constant movement or vibrations occur ensures stable and reliable connections. 

Environmental Conditions

There are many environmental conditions, such as humidity, extreme temperatures, and exposure to chemicals, that can affect lockbolt performance. 

It’s important to understand the specific environmental conditions that the lockbolts will be exposed to, so you can choose the right bolts for the application. 

Applications of Lockbolts

Our lockbolts are versatile components that are well-suited for various applications. Here are some common examples of where lockbolts are frequently used:

Aerospace and Automotive lock bolts are not generally used for air side applications

Lockbolts are essential for securing parts that have to withstand extreme force and vibrations in aerospace and automotive applications. By providing permanent and vibration-resistant connections, they ensure the safety and reliability of structures. 

Our aluminium lockbolts are well-suited for these applications as they reduce weight while maintaining their strength. 

Heavy Machinery and Equipment

Lockbolts play an important role in the assembly and smooth operation of heavy machinery. They provide secure and long-lasting connections that won’t loosen under pressure. 

At Zygology, our lockbolts help maintain the integrity of large equipment operating under intense loads and in challenging environments. 

Construction and Infrastructure

Lockbolts, with their strength and resistance to vibrations, are essential in many construction projects. They hold together important structural components and ensure the long-term stability of different structures. 

The corrosion resistance of our lockbolts makes them well-suited for various outdoor construction applications.  TheirThier   strength strngth  and versatility make them suitable for assembly of the frameworks now being employed in solar farms

Railways and Transportation

Lockbolts are used to fasten components that experience constant vibrations and heavy use. They ensure that railroad tracks, railcars, and other moving parts remain securely fastened. 

Zygology’s vibration-resistant lockbolts and NeoBolts allow for the safe operation of various transportation systems.
