HOW WAS THE CLICK-LOC™ QUALIFIED?
Initially, there was extensive lab testing (including vibration, circular flexure, reusability, pressure and thermal cycling). This was followed by qualification testing on AMT engines, then in-flight service evaluations. It is important to note that all CLICK-LOC™ components use virtually the same materials, beam geometry, and locking configuration. Therefore, each new application additionally substantiates all others. For more details about testing and substantiation please click here.
