Huck Fasteners & Cherrylock

Wed Oct 20, 2004 9:01 pm

Has anyone every used Cherrylocks or Huck Fasteners on anything? I worked on commercial aircraft and all I ever used were Cherrymax, Hylocks and a few Cherrylocks and I worked overhaul. I will probably sell my Huck fasteners and repair my G700 Cherrylock gun. Any help in what you used them on would be appreciated. I have lots of them bought surplus. Chuck

I think that later Mooneys use Huck Bolts in the wing spars. The ones with the swaged aluminum collars, right?

"Huck fasteners are designed into nearly every current U.S. and European commercial aircraft and most military aircraft. The company's fasteners are also used in heavy-duty trucks and trailers, automobiles and recreational vehicles, school buses, railroad cars and intermodal freight containers, bridges, mines and commercial buildings."
