Services
Cold Heading
Cold heading produces stronger fasteners by shaping metal at room temperature, preserving grain structure. This method ensures dimensional accuracy within .025mm tolerances while minimizing material waste. Our high-speed production creates up to 200 parts per minute for efficient manufacturing.
Thread Rolling
Thread rolling creates durable screw threads through precision deformation, enhancing fatigue resistance. Our updated bowl and feed systems ensure consistent quality across carbon steel, stainless steel, and alloy components for industrial applications.
Design Engineering
Our engineering team provides simulation and design support for custom fasteners. Using advanced software, we optimize part geometry and material selection to meet specific performance requirements while reducing production costs.
Tooling
In-house tooling production maintains tight tolerances for cold heading dies. Our milling capabilities ensure precise die creation, supporting complex fastener shapes and reducing lead times for new product implementation.
SEMS Fasteners
SEMS fasteners combine bolts with pre-assembled washers for simplified installation. We manufacture these integrated solutions using corrosion-resistant materials, ensuring reliability in automotive and industrial applications requiring vibration resistance.
