PLUGS
Blind hole, one-sided installation capability.
Fully annealed sleeve yields high sealing performance.
Improved seal and wider hole tolerance.
Larger hole tolerance. Simplified hole alignment when automated placing is required.
Internal lock. Flat nose tip and ease of use.
Improved stem retention and increased vibration resistance.
No locking ring formed by nose tip. Standard equipment reduces preventative maintenance.
Tapered sleeve and stem allows ease of entry with standard tooling.
Suited to automated systems, seal quality is not operator dependent
Available as a customized design to meet your unique assembly requirements.
Popular assembly applications include thin wall applications, restricted space, shorter hole length, high-pressure applications, holes with large tolerance, and automotive low-pressure applications.
CRITICAL FASTENERS
Our manufacturing partners specialize in the design and manufacture of cold- and hot-headed, high-strength fasteners capable of meeting the demanding performance requirements of aerospace, diesel engine, power generation, and industrial markets. Featuring their Automatic SMP (ASMP), EBC Industries, Ferry Cap, TOG Manufacturing, and Specialty Bar Products, contact us to see examples of our critical machined parts.
SCREW AND WASHER ASSEMBLIES (SEMS)
One-piece screw and washer assembly.
Provides a larger bearing surface area than a one-piece cold formed part.
Provides a screw and washer assembly with dissimilar material.
Provides a more consistent torque/tension relationship.
Distributes the load over a large bearing surface, reducing potential joint yielding.
SPECIALS AND ASSEMBLIES
Serving the complex needs of industrial and automotive manufacturing, our manufacturing partners develop, manufacture, and market precision-threaded fastening solutions; from electric and pneumatic assembly tools to industrial power tools and engineered systems.
