533-8171: 68.8mm Thick Bolt Isolation Sleeve

A Bolt Isolation Sleeve is a cylindrical, hollow tube with an inner diameter slightly larger than the bolt's diameter. The sleeve is fitted over the bolt or stud, covering the threaded portion that passes through the structure or material. It acts as a physical barrier, ensuring electrical, thermal, or galvanic isolation. Bolt isolation sleeves are often used in conjunction with insulating washers to provide further protection. Attributes: • Reduces friction and wear between the parts • Manufactured to precise specifications and built for durability, and reliability Applications: A Bolt Isolation Sleeve can also prevent galvanic corrosion between dissimilar metals in contact with bolts in the cabin assembly. Bolt isolation sleeves prevent electrical current from flowing through the threads of a bolt or stud, protecting against short circuits and ground faults.
