- The third video in our Quarter-Turn Fastener series outlines the tools used for Dzus installation and long-term maintenance. Fabrication tools include a dimpler, transfer punch and a Dzus spring drill fixture. These make locating the mounting location for quarter-turn fasteners a breeze. We then look at two types of spring adjuster tools which come in handy during installation and over the lifetime of your racecar.
The next quarter-turn fastener video will go in-depth on solid rivets, why they should be used with self-eject fasteners and the tools needed for a clean and lasting install.

Thousands of different fasteners are used in motorsports and one of the most popular used for securing body panels and interiors are called, “Quarter-Turn Fasteners,” also known by the brand name “Dzus.”
With literally hundreds of quarter-turn fastener types, mounting configurations, size and thickness options, finding the right combination for your application can be extremely frustrating. Additionally, if the fasteners are not used or installed correctly, they are easily lost and in some cases, cause thousands of dollars in damage to body panels and paint.

OK, some springs too loose, some too tight. So I bought the big spring tool. Works great to loosen connection but bottoms out when attempting to tighten? Tried different length fasteners, no luck.
The Paint guys are going to be mad with you. Their work is not shit according to them. I’m not a paint guy but I know they get touchy about these sort of things.
