INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
A, GENERAL DESCRIPTION +
1
The patented, high strength Hi-Lok or Hi-Lok/Hi-Tigue is basically a threaded
fastener which combines the best features of a rivet and bolt. Three primary
design advantages include:
a. A controlled preload or clamp-up is designed into the fastener.
b. Minimum size and weight.
c. Simple, quiet and rapid installation,
The threaded end of the Hi-Lok pin contains a hexagonal shaped recess. The
hex wrench tip of the Hi-Lok driving tool engages the recess to prevent rotation
of the pin while the collar is being installed. The pin recess also offers a second-
ary benefit, weight savings
‘The pin is designed in two basic head styles. For shear applications, the pin is
made in the lightweight, “Hi-Shear” countersunk style and in a compact protrud-
ing head style. For tension applications, the MS24694 (ANSO09) flush and
protruding head styles are available.
The Hi-Lok/Hi-Tigue type interference fit pin provides improved fatigue bene-
fits to the airframe structure. The Hi-Tigue feature on the end of the pin shank
makes it possible to use a straight shank interference fit fastener in a standard
straight drilled hole to obtain the maximum fatigue life of the structure. For
complete description see brochure 2-159920.
The self-locking, threaded Hi-Lok collar has an internal counterbore at the base
to accommodate variations in material thickness. At the opposite end of the
collar is a wrenching device which is torqued by the driving tool until it shears
off during installation; this shear-off point occurs when a predetermined pre~
Joad or clamp-up is attained in the fastener during installation. Removal of the
collar wrenching surfaces after installation saves additional weight. B. SELECTING THE FASTENER ASSEMBLY
The basic part number indicates the assembly of the pin and the collar part numbers.
Example: HL1870PB-8-12
“T Second dash number is the maximum grip length
of pin in 1/16ths (12/16" or 3/4” grip length).
First dash number is the nominal diameter of pin in,
1/32nds (8/32" or 1/4” nominal diameter).

C. MATCHING COLLAR MATERIALS TO PIN HEAD STYLES
1. [Lisvery important that the proper Hi-Lok collar be used with the Hi-Lok
pinhead style (shear or tension types) to maintain a proper design balance between
the pin and collar. Refer to Hi-Lok or Hi-Lok/Hi-Tigue standards pages for recom-
mended pin-collar combinations or contact your Standards Engineer.
2. Ingeneral, the following pin-collar combinations are acceptable:
a. Use aluminum collars (such as HL79 or HL70) with shear head pins made
from materials such as alloy steel or titanium.
b. _ Insome cases low torque-off type stee! collars (such as HLL94) are used with
shear head pins.
c. Where tensile strength is a factor, use tension head pins with higher torque-off
collars such as HL86.
d. When the Hi-Tigue version of the Hi-Lok system is used, a Hi-Tigue type
collar should be used with a Hi-Tigue type pin. The Hi-Tigue collar has a
deeper intemal counterbore to mate with a Hi-Tigue pin which has the Hi-
Tigue feature at the end of its cylindrical shank.
D. SELECTING THE PIN GRIP LENGTH
1. The standard Hi-Lok Fastening System offers pin lengths which are graduated into
1/16" increments. D, SELECTING THE PIN GRIP LENGTH (cor

2. The material thickness can vary 1/16" without changing pin lengths. Adjust-
‘ment for variations in material thickness in between the pin 1/16" graduations
is automatically made by the counterbore in the collar.

3. Inthe pin part number, HL18PB-8-9, the last dash number, -9, is used to specify
the maximum grip length of the pin shank. In this instance a 9/16" grip length
is required, indicating use of a -9 pin. Grip scales as shown are used as,
an aid to measure hole depth and to check the pin shank for correct grip length, D. SELECTING THE PIN GRIP LENGTH (continued)
To save shop time for riveters and inspectors, Grip Scales measure the grip length of
countersunk and flathead HI-SHEAR pins and work thickness or rivet hole depths in
increments corresponding to the HI-SHEAR dash number system of pin grip lengths.
‘The Scale is 0.020 spring temper stainless steel and 3/4" x 6-1/4" in size. The finish
is satin with red and black lettering.
