Blind rivets are tension fasteners although the load is designed to carry are of much lower magnitude than socket products. One of their prime benefits is speed of installation, as they do not require threads and torquing to make up their assemblies. These are made of two assembled parts, an outer rivet body, which remains clamped in the assembly and an inner mandrel, which is drawn up tight with a riveting tool, either hand powered or more commonly powered actuated. The mandrel body separates by design during the installation by snapping off. The blind rivet bodies and mandrels are produced and supplied from several different material combinations, with steel and aluminum being the most common. They are essentially three types, which include hollow, pull-through rivets, self-plugging, friction-lock rivets and mechanical locked-stem self-plugging rivets. The pull-through rivet is mainly used for nonstructural applications.

Blisks are single-engine component composed of a rotor disc and blades through machining from a solid piece of material or blades to the rotor disc. These are one-pieced parts for compressors in aerospace applications. Its advantages include remove the need to attach the blades to the disk and thus decreases the number of components within the compressor while at the same time decreasing drag and increasing efficiency of air compression within the engine.

Blister Packaging is the method of packaging where goods for sale such as toys and electrical items are contained in between a specially made paper blister board and clear PVC plastic. Blister packaging of products involves material feeding, blister forming, product loading, sealing, slitting or perforation and cross cutting. The simplest equipment uses blisters that are preformed on a separate machine. The product is inserted into the blisters by hand and sealed. Thermoform fill seal machines can form blisters, load product into the blister, seal and cut them apart. Some machines can also automatically pack the finished packages into cartons. The sealing temperatures used in the machine will vary from 140°C to 200°C for non-continous machines and 200°C to 300°C for continuous packaging machines.

Block & bleed valves are back seated block valve along with a bleed valve with directional discharge tube and stem stop. It allows pressure to be bled and blocked for simplified instrument removal using a gauge. The discharge tube enables the technician to direct the high-pressure fluid away from changing the instrument. It can also be threaded into a hex primary block valve to provide secondary block and bleed functions on multiple instrument installations.
