Woodrow Bellamy IIIHost[whooshing voiceover] So Bill, can you start with a brief introduction to who Click Bond is as a company and the type of products and solutions you provide for the global aerospace and defense industry?

Um, at a high level, Click Bond solves attachment issues, uh, and fallon- and fastening challenges in demanding aerospace and defense environments.

And we do so by using bonded attachments rather than using mechanical fastening methods, so no screwing, no bolting, no drilling.

Uh, we're able to achieve those same performance characteristics as you would from a bonded, from a bonded fastener as you would from a mechanically fastened system.
And just for our audience's, uh, you know, further info, what type of experience does Click Bond have supporting Department of War programs or even any major s- you know, industry OEMs that our audience might be familiar with?

I myself, I've been doing this for 27 years, so I've been working with Click Bond on anything that flies, floats, and rolls.

So if you look out in the world today, you see, whether it be a bus or whether you see a train, whether you see a commercial aircraft, whether you see defense applications, Click Bond is working with those teams to make those articles, whether they're flying, floating, or rolling, manufacture them faster, make them lighter, get them to market quicker, reduce risks, reduce manufacturing costs, costs overall.

So as far as specific applications, I can tell you that, you know, most commercial aircraft are using our product today.

But just know that if you've boarded a commercial aircraft in the past five years, uh, you have been, uh, introduced in some way to the Click Bond technology in the manufacturing of that aircraft.
And you mentioned flying, floating, and rolling, so I think we're, we'll, we'll be talking about the rolling part of, of that equation [laughs] here.
Um, could you just tell us, tell our audience, you know, what type of experience do you have s- does Click Bond have specifically with military vehicle programs?

Going back a significant number of years, Click Bond has worked with the manufacturers globally that are building military ground vehicle systems today.

Our technologies lend for ease of installation, allowing the manufacturing teams to move faster and not have to take into consideration where they might need to drill.

There's some, there's some controls, and there's some, uh, how can I say it? There's materials that you don't wanna disturb in the manufacture of those vehicles.
