AS3510-0118K is a pre-cut 18-inch safety cable (lock wire) with 0.023-inch diameter for securing critical fasteners in aircraft maintenance. Meets Aerospace Standard AS3510 for vibration resistance and security in aviation applications.
Safety cable is a positive locking method used to prevent fasteners from loosening due to vibration or operational forces. The cable is threaded through pre-drilled holes in fastener heads and secured by twisting the ends with a specialized tool. This pre-cut length and diameter provide consistency and ease of use. The cable is typically made from corrosion-resistant stainless steel.
