AIRCRAFT SEATING
Commercial aircraft seating endures substantial wear and tear – especially on high-frequency short-haul flights. Materials used must stand up to the job.
In recent years Halco USA has been awarded contracts to supply FAR 25.853 compliant flame retardant hook and loop fasteners for seating in Boeing’s 737 NG and MAX models, as well as the 777X widebody twinjet.
MRO
Halco supports aftermarket MRO (maintenance, repair, and overhaul) repair station companies throughout North America. These include upholstery shops and interior upfitters who use reclosable fasteners for cabin retrofits, dress cover replacement, attaching seat cushions, seatback pockets and other components.
INSULATION / PANEL SECUREMENT
Aircraft manufacturers have insulative and acoustic material and many small trim pieces and panels that need easy removability for improved access. Halco’s FR-rated recloseable hook and loop fasteners help get the job done.
CABLE MANAGEMENT
Within an aircraft, there are miles of cables and wire harnesses that must be managed. Halco’s FR-rated hook and loop bundling tape helps secure and organize these cables and wire harnesses.
