Case fasteners are closure and retention hardware used to secure access panels, equipment bays, avionics enclosures, and structural cases in aerospace assemblies, providing repeatable engagement and positive locking without permanent fixation. The category covers turn-to-lock mechanisms, quarter-turn fasteners, cam-action closures, and flush-mounted receptacle-and-stud configurations, manufactured in titanium, corrosion-resistant steel (CRES), and aluminium alloys to MIL-SPEC and NAS standards.
