Material

Fasteners are an important element and play a major role in all types of applications. They can find from any low-duty application to extreme heavy-duty application. It plays a very critical role in some applications where perfection and accuracy are most needed.

The requirement of fasteners is different for different applications and needs. To fulfil all requirements, we use many different materials to make the product more precise and meet all the requirements of customers. Following are the detail of most common raw materials that we use for Standard Fasteners.
