About FAB-LOK
FAB-LOK is a carbon steel or stainless screw assembled to a slotted "rivet" sleeve made from 5052-H32 aluminum with a 1/2" OD neoprene sealing washer. A larger diameter WEATH-R-SEAL washer may also be used if the application requires greater bearing or a high-performance seal. Inserted through a 5/16" hole drilled in the sheeting members, the screw is tightened to cause the sleeve to draw up and form 4 clamping tines which provide holding power. For more detailed information about these fasteners, please read our FAB-LOK literature. For information on FAB-LOK installation and performance data, read this document.
Sizing Information
Grip length is important. In order to find your ideal grip length, determine the total thickness of materials to be fastened, and then add for job site conditions. Most often spaces occur between the materials to be fastened, and a longer grip length is necessary. For roofing applications, a larger sealing washer takes up some of this grip length.
