Considerations for Your Custom Fastener Manufacturing Project
There are certain environmental considerations to keep in mind when selecting the appropriate material for your custom fasteners. Read the below information to help you choose the best solution for your application needs.| Consideration | Why It’s Important | Custom Design Options |
| Fastener Strength | Some applications require high yield strength to carry heavy loads. Consider if your fastener will be exposed to things like intense pressure, torque, or vibration. | Common materials for heavy duty applications include steel, stainless steel, titanium, and aluminum. Locking elements can also be used to ensure your fasteners remain secure. |
| Corrosion Resistance | Substances like saltwater or harsh chemicals may cause your fasteners to corrode overtime. Certain materials and/or fastener coatings can prevent corrosion and wear to your fasteners. | Materials with corrosion resistant properties include steel, stainless steel (18-8, 316, & 410), aluminum, and brass. Zinc plating, galvanizing, and chromate coatings can also protect against corrosion. |
| Temperatures | Certain applications require fasteners that can operate in intense heat or freezing environments. The wrong material can melt or lose it’s ductility when exposed to extreme temperatures. | Common materials known to withstand extreme temperatures include stainless steel, aluminum, copper, and brass. |
