Switch to the best, most cost-effective wire protection for Refit, Refurb, Replace. Spring-Fast®

Spring-Fast is simpler & faster to install without glue saving 49% of install costs with best-in-class performance.

For avionics • seating • galleys • monuments on jets • turboprops • helicopters

This is the SOP for your techs using glued nylon MS21266 grommets.

Preparation: gathering items for application & safety
Prepping the edge for proper adhesion -abrasion and cleaning]
Gluing to the edge – as nylon lacks static friction
Fixture the application with tape – while it cures.
Clean up with a MEK solvent, cloths – and elbow grease.
Inspection: disbonding is common & causes rework adding to the cost of poor quality.
A costly, labor intensive, multi-step process

Spring-Fast® NASM22529 installs with finger pressure without glue while providing best in class performance.

Performance
1. Superior Edge retention	20g, 3 axis, static load tests showed no impact on retention
2. Shock & vibration	Fully tested to mil std 810 - no known failure in 35 years.
3. Less weight	Nylon grommets plus the glue weigh 10-17% more than NASM22529/2.
4. Longer Life	NASM22529/2 is not moisture or UV sensitive = no embrittlement
Costs
1. Reduced Cost	Faster no glue installation saves OEMs 49% of total install cost
2. Reduced Scrap	Reels reduce scrap (vs strip nylon which has up to a 26% scrap rate)
3. Lower than Teflon	DTi unit cost less than Teflon which is 10x to 28x the cost of nylon
4. Lower Consumables	No glue, IPA wipes, solvents, fixture tape, gloves, masks or cloths.
Efficiency/Safety
1. Efficiency	Frees up tech time -higher productivity/backlog reduction.
2. Tight spaces	Application/removal/reapplication is easy even in very tight spaces
3. Reduced safety issues	No glues, solvents or VOCs requiring ventilation and masks for techs
4. Reduced FOD	Minimal FOD footprint- no glue, gloves, cloth, wipes, tape, solvent, masks
5. Green/sustainable	No VOC solvents or adhesives, no nylon, no ventilation & a longer PLC.

NASM22529/2 is an FAA approved replacement part & has NAVAIR approval per # 01-1A-505-1

Spring-Fast has a polymer coating on an ultra-thin CRES substrate that snaps on with finger pressure.
Opposing finger-like castles exert a compression force for retention without glue.
Proven retention -static load tested to 20G on 3 axes without adhesives.
Can be hand pre-formed, snapped into place with finger pressure & easily removed & refit.
