BTM
Sheet metal joining system


Full color brochure describes BTM's patented no-weld no-rivet Tog-L-Loc sheet metal joining system. Tog-L-Loc easily joins plain, coated or dissimilar metals without fasteners. No sparks, soot or fumes are produced, and protective coatings are not burned or pierced. Strong, consistent, leak-proof Tog-L-Loc joints can be nondestructively checked with a single gage.

Introducting the Phillips Square-Driv "multinational recess."


Designed to meet the demanding needs of Manufacturing Engineers worldwide, the innovative Phillips Square Driv fastener drive system design combines the classic PhillipsR cross recess and the popular square recess.

The result: a highly efficient and functional "multi-driver serviceable recess."

Square Drive, Phillips, ACRR Phillips II and PozidrivR cross recessed driver bits can also drive Phillips Square-Driv fasteners. The system's unique recess allows you to reduce the number of drivers for the popular range of fasteners to just 3 driver sizes. (Eight are required for the hex lobular style of recess.) Fewer required drivers reduce operator error and confusion.

A larger cross-section means greater strength. The Phillips Square-Driv system's increased driver bit cross-section significantly increases the longetivity of the driver bit, reducing overall tooling costs.

Combination square/cross-recessed design with anti-camout ribs (ACRR) enhances driver bit torque capability. Fasteners can be controlled to higher torque levels for optimum clamp loads without driver bit fatique failures that can damage components and operators alike.

User friendly "On-line Stick Fit" design improves operator control. "On-line Stick Fit" design also ensures alignment during the screw driving operation.

The innovative Phillips Square-Driv fastener system is the smart, economical choice for multinational companies. It allows one system of drive recess for all countries of manufacture with a choice of the following drivers for servicing worldwide markets:

  • Phillips Square-DrivR

  • Square Drive

  • PozidrivR

  • Phillips

  • ACRR Phillips IIR

Desoutter SD Screwdrivers Provide Key to Greater Productivity

With demand for increased efficiency, but lower unit manufacturing cost, Desoutter has developed its new range of ergonomic SD Screwdrivers and accessories. The SD tools are compact with similar size tools producing only half the torque, making the tool easier to manuever.

A new motor design has tools running for typically greater than 3 million cycles before a routine service. Improvements in the porting have resulted in an increase in power and speed of 30-140% in most applications for a given torque.

Tests to ISO5393 show that the SD shut off tools can give torque repeatability better than ±4%, the clutch adjustment being tamperproof to prevent adjustment after calibration.

The SD screwdriver range is the leader in its field.
