Allfast participated at Boeing?s request in the C-17 best practices forum. This forum was a chance for an enterprise wide exchange of timesaving and labor saving ideas and techniques. One of the featured presentations was the use of Allfast's TACKBOLT®. Allfast was the only supplier to be invited to participate in the forum. This patent pending temporary fastener allows heavy structure to be assembled and transported to automated fastening centers. Boeing chose Allfast due the successful cycle time reductions and cost savings achieved through the implementation of the FASTACK® temporary Rivet, in Boeing's production.
