Overview

Loose fasteners on aircraft engines have provided engineers with a challenge since the very beginnings of flight. They not only jeopardize the parts they secure but can fall into the wrong part of the engine. Yet lockwiring fasteners is a time consuming and troublesome process.

Safety Cable™ was developed in 1987 by Bergen Cable Technology in conjunction with GE Aircraft Engines and has replaced what was once one of the most troublesome, time-consuming and error-prone of all manufacturing and repair processes – lockwiring of fasteners – and replaced it with a simple two-step procedure. It is the safest, most cost effective, easiest to install fastener retention system available.

The system consists of Bergen Cable Technology’s cable, ferrules and a patented, all in one tensioning, crimping and cutting tool. It permits manufacture and repair in half the time* required for lockwire, reduces rework and inspection while eliminating installation hazards through removal of any sharp edges that can injure operators or tear protective clothing.

After a cable is threaded through the fasteners and a loose ferrule inserted, the crimping tool tensions the assembly, crimps the loose ferrule and cuts the excess cable flush to the ferrule – all in one smooth motion.

The entire system is so user friendly that entry-level technicians can learn the Safety Cable™ installation method in less than thirty minutes – and be ready to competently and efficiently secure fasteners on even the most complex, hard to reach components.

Today, Bergen’s Safety Cable™ System is saving countless hours in aerospace manufacturing for companies such as General Electric Aircraft Engines, Boeing, Pratt and Whitney, Rolls Royce, and Woodward Governor.
