Abstract: A tool assembly for friction extrusion can comprise a friction extrusion die. The friction extrusion die can include a distal face and a proximal end. The distal face can define at least one topographical ridge or groove feature to induce plasticization of a material in response to an axial force and a rotational force applied by the distal face to the material. The friction extrusion die can define a central passage to carry an extrudate of the material in a proximal direction in response to the applied axial and rotational forces. The proximal end can define a faceted cross-sectional profile to mate a with a corresponding receiving end of a tool holder. The faceted cross-sectional profile can be sized and shaped to receive the rotational force through engagement by the tool holder of respective faces defined by the faceted cross-sectional profile.

Abstract: The present invention is a locking device for securing outboard motors and stern drives mounted on a plurality of exposed studs on the stern of a boat, and construction equipment on a plurality of studs inset in concrete or other media and other items which can be mounted. The invention is comprised of a 304 work hardened stainless steel body which has two blind holes connected by a slot. In one blind hole, a keyed lock assembly is fitted. The keyed lock deploys a catch which engages a groove in a stainless steel lock pin. The lock pin can be attached to items having protruding studs or other protuberances.

Abstract: The invention is a locking device for securing outboard motors and stern drives against theft. The invention attaches to the normal mounting bolts of a stern drive or outboard motor. The lock of the invention consists of two, one inch diameter, 304 work-hardened stainless steel lock nuts, one with a through hole and the other with a blind hole. A work hardened stainless steel pin and a work hardened stainless steel sleeve and two tempered steel roll pins make up the lock.
