have tests been performed on the 4002-*WB?

Question:

I would have a question in regard to the Fixed Wing Head 4002-*WB Stud Assy.
1- Have tests been performed in regard to vibration on the above mentioned studs, and has a certification been issued?
A customer has requested these to be installed, but we have no data in regards to vibration, or aerodynamic effects on the studs.
In the event that you have a certificate in regards to the above, would it be available?

Answer:

Tests have not been performed on these products because the company philosophy is that every application is different and it’s up to the customer to test it within their own application.  Samples can be provided for you to evaluate the product.

My advice:

The 4002 series can take a very small side load compared to other series of the camloc range that do not have this possibility.  It is a product generally used in aviation applications because of it’s cost/performance/small size

If you have critical applications where there is a bigger side load, instead of only a tension load, then we would advise the use of panel fasteners.

They are costly.  View the catalog here: https://www.anemo.eu/downloads# these are used for example on the covers of the engines of an aircraft.

Regarding the certification.

Parts can be supplied with certificate of conformity.

This includes several international standards and approvals where the product is certified for:
