Value of REALLOCK for Design Engineers
REALLOCK’s simplicity in installation, removal and security, creates life cycle savings for the aircraft, missile, system or satellite. Every time safety wire is replaced with REALLOCK, technicians save significant time installing, repairing, and replacing hardware. On average, Saint Technologies estimates that every safety wire application replaced with REALLOCK, saves between $200.00 and $300.00 in life cycle maintenance expenses. Multiplied by the hundreds of safety wire applications in aircraft for example and the savings become significant.
In aerospace design, weight is one of the most critical design factors. Whether it is a satellite, a passenger aircraft, a missile or a military aircraft, every ounce of weight savings translates into greater payload, more range, greater capability or more weapon systems. REALLOCK is the way to design in weight savings over safety wire.
Saint Technologies, Inc. has estimated that every ounce of weight savings for a satellite sent to low earth orbit translates into approximately $625.00 of additional value per satellite. For commercial aircraft, each ounce of weight savings from a design perspective improves the value of each aircraft by $145.00 in cargo and passenger capability. For each ounce of weight savings designed into a fighter aircraft, the equivalent value of $312.00 payload and fuel is created for each aircraft.
