INSTALLATION PROCEDURE USING BLIND FASTENERS

Place a drop of oil on the black oxide bolt before assembling as shown on right. Place the Blind Fastener in the hole
and use a 1/2” or 7/16” wrench to tighten black hex bolt until the blind fastener is fully seated. When setting black hex
bolt, it will start out hard. As the Blind Fastener “bulbs” out it will get easier, until it bottoms out or sets. Make sure the
Blind Fastener and Installation Tool do not turn during installation.
