Low Orbit Hull Patch Cassette

Low Orbit Hull Patch Cassette is gear for closing punctures and split seams in light hull plate before vibration spreads them, built for crews who measure twice because the load never apologizes. Captive pins and replaceable contact faces prevent small parts from joining the orbital debris census. Stage loose cable first, keep the recoil lane empty, and leave a clear route to dump tension if the readings turn sour. Under thrust, watch the lowest attachment. A finger-width of creep means the rest of the rig is already lying. Skipping the post-load inspection saves six minutes and can cost six hours cutting freight out of a bulkhead. Contamination tunnels under the bond until pressure lifts the plate and turns the old puncture into a larger one.
