Thumbs up Tip: Click Bond Nutplates - Cheap Source

I am securing my nav, strobe, and landing lights in my wingtips. I found what seems to be a good source (read: far cheaper than I've seen before) for Click Bond Nutplates (and other Click Bond products). When it comes to mounting the wingtips, these are what I plan to use. No need to drill 3 holes, no little rivets to squeeze, no fuss, no muss. Just bond them in place, just like Boeing, Lockheed, and NASA do. Did I mention how much faster it is, and that they don't break off?

The CN614's (#8s, miniature, 2 lug) are the ones I plan to use on the wingtips:

I love websites that actually post their prices. ENFASCO also sells these but they don't post their prices.

More info on Clickbond stuff:

PS: I have no connection to these guys, just passing along what I consider to be a great find!

Default Good folks!

Liz and Bill are decent folks, I have known bill for over 25 years and Liz for 20.

I have not used click bond stuff but one of my customers buys thousands of them direct and they work perfect for their all composite applications
