Beyond the "designed-in" advantages contributing to aircraft performance and weight reduction, incorporation of Click Bond technology will reduce the labor content of each aircraft by at least 5,000 man-hours, profoundly benefiting aircraft manufacturability and program economics. Then, as the JSF fleet amasses service hours, the long-term benefits of bonded fasteners -- reduced structural fatigue and corrosion and simplified repair -- will make themselves evident.

By working in close concert from the earliest phases of the X-35 design, Lockheed Martin and Click Bond have expanded the envelope of aircraft structural design to enable the creation of a strike fighter revolutionary in its performance, manufacturability, and sustainability.

Click Bond provides innovative structural assembly solutions to answer challenges in the aerospace, transportation, naval, and industrial markets. Call on us to help unleash the potential of your designs.
