What Are Maxigrip Lockbolt Pins and Collars?
Maxigrip Lockbolt Pins and Collars are part of a two-piece mechanical fastening system consisting of a lockbolt pin and compatible collar.
During installation, the collar is secured onto the pin to create a permanent mechanical connection. Unlike conventional bolts and nuts, lockbolts are designed for permanent fastening once correctly installed.
Lockbolts can be useful where secure mechanical fastening, consistent installation and resistance to movement are important.
Always check the relevant product specifications to confirm the correct pin, collar and installation tooling for your application.
Maxigrip as a Magna-Grip and Maxlok Alternative
If you’re looking for an alternative to an existing lockbolt system, Maxigrip Lockbolt Pins and Collars can be considered for suitable applications.
A replacement should not be selected based on the product name alone. The existing fastener should be compared with the proposed replacement to ensure that the diameter, grip range, material, head style, collar and installation requirements are appropriate.
