ELIJAH TOOLING AA02-005-021 Invert-A-Bolt Fastener
Your Elijah Tooling, Inc. Invert-A-Bolt™ (IVB) fastener has been manufactured to provide low-cost, high value performance combined with ease of use. The IVB fastener is a patented product, ideal for connecting two materials or objects together especially when an unobtrusive connection is desired. The IVB fastener features finishes that improve appearance and reduce rust as well as providing closely held tolerances on threads and internal dimensions to insure that it meets your exacting expectations. The fastener is easy to install, easy to use: please follow the instructions below.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Usage of your IVB fastener requires simple preparation of the “holding” side for the housing threads and preparation of the “receiving” side for the stud threads. For Flush Mount:
Prepare the “holding” side in the following manner:
Prepare the “receiving” side for the stud threads:
Tap Drill 29/64” diameter thru. C’sink .60” dia. x 45 degrees. Tap 1/2”-20 .45” deep. For better resistance against vibration on the receiving side, use a Spiralock® tap. Once the “holding” side and the “receiving” side have been prepped, simply screw your IVB fastener into the 1”-12 threaded hole with P/N AA02-004-004 insertion tool. Torque to 45-50 ft. lbs. Recommended: PRO-1 in- line pneumatic torque limiting wrench such as that shown at https://elijahtooling.com/products/pro-1-torque-limiting-pneumatic- impactwrench-with-adapter. Place the “receiving” side 1/2”-20 tapped hole directly above the IVB fastener. Reach through the 1/2”-20 hole with your hex head wrench until contacting the hex head broach in the IVB stud. Start turning counter-clockwise and the stud will advance immediately. Tighten until the stud is fully engaged (approximately .33 inches into the “receiving” side) at 35 ft.lbs. Use a feeler gauge to insure that the “receiving” side material is pulled down properly.
REPLACEMENT PARTS & MAINTENANCE
Periodically remove IVB fastener for cleaning. The fastener can be disassembled by removing the cover in the base of the product, which then can be blown out to clean out accumulated metal chips and debris. Also, for faster cleaning, simply hose water through the top of the fastener, allowing the debris to pass through the slots in the base of the product. Inspect for worn parts and purchase refurbishment parts as applicable. Reassemble & Reinstall. If necessary, refurbishment parts to replace any or all of the internal components of the IVB fastener are available for sale. Refer to part number AA02-005-021RFB for entire kit. Inquire via phone or email regarding part numbers for the individual components. Cross section of IVB fastener with an insertion tool.
