Hucktainer Bringing Huck Quality to Composite Panel Assemblies for Trucks and TrailersHucktainer has earned its reputation as the fastener of choice to provide consistent, controlled clamp, superior vibration resistance and fast, foolproof installation in truck trailers, truck bodies, cargocontainers, and other structures fabricated from multi-ply composite panels.The Hucktainer installs with consistent pressure, reducing the potential for crushing or crazing FRPpanels and metal-clad applications. Each Hucktainer features a heavy zinc plating that resists corrosion.For even greater anti-corrosion protection, plastic encapsulation is available. The option of customcolors offers fade-resistant protection, while an integral double seal helps keep the elements and othercontaminants from invading the joint.Requiring only a few seconds to install, Hucktainer fasteners reduce assembly time. Unlike impactwrenches, the tools used to install Hucktainer fasteners come in your choice of air-powered orhydraulic models. Comfortable, ergonomically designed grips combined with easy-to-pull triggersminimize muscle strain and the possibility of repetitive-stress syndrome.Hucktainer is now also available in shorter lengths called Hucktainer MC, specifically designed toaccommodate stack-ups associated with metal-clad panels as thin as 3/16” (.187).Hucktainer Benefits Fast, quiet, foolproof installation Installs with consistent pressure, reducing crushing or crazing Spiral lock system, breakaway pintail, and smooth bore sleeve Heavy zinc plating resists corrosion Integral seal keeps contaminants from invading joint / weather-resistant Can never be over-torqued or under-torqued Tamper-resistant Custom coloring for encapsulations available Shorter grips available for today’s thin metal-clad panels RoHS compliant23/16"

One sleeve fits all pins; no need to mix and matchDirect-Tension InstallationConventional threaded fasteners may only engage a few threads when joining thin sheets, allowing panels to separate in response to vibration. By contrast,Hucktainer’s unique, direct-tension installation process provides for consistent clamp, ensuring accurate tension and a secure, durable connection, time after time.3

Hucktainer MCSame High Performance for Today’s Ultra-Thin MaterialHucktainer has been re-engineered to accommodate thinner stack-ups associated with metal-clad (MC) panels in truck and trailer assemblies. Like original Hucktainer,Hucktainer MC utilizes proprietary Huck technology, helping Hucktainer deliver both clamp and vibration resistance that can’t be matched by conventional threadedfasteners.Hucktainer MC also features an encapsulated head which forms an integral seal that helps keep the elements and other contaminants from invading the joint, andpreserving good looks. If corrosion-resistant fasteners are not used in trailer body assembly, the chance of water damage significantly increases. Over time, this canaffect joints and the surrounding metal-clad panels.Hucktainer MCHucktainer contributes a highdegree of vibration and corrosionresistance when used with metalclad panels.4
