Today's demanding applications require multiple options for the most cost-effective designs and proper assembly parameters.
Provides options for assembly into aluminum, zinc, and magnesium, with an emphasis on compact application designs, thermal expansion/contraction, reusability, and reduced debris generation.
Featured Technologies: ALtracs® Xt, TAPTITE PRO®, Mag-Form®
Assembly into multilayered sheets of material without using a pre-made hole allows for an assembly and design that secures the joint and resists vibration while still providing the option of disassembly.
Thermoplastic, Thermosets, and Composite materials pose various challenges. These options address designs that support smaller bosses, cosmetic appearance, clamp load loss, vibration, and possible insert removal.

Alternate clips made of plastic can provide design benefits over steel.
Featured Technologies: EASYboss® V
These products support application requirements, from pressing in studs to secure metals to molded–in options for plastics.
Mechanical Locking of threads can provide both cost and design options over applying materials such as adhesives and patches.
Featured Technologies: POWERLOK® II™
Options for off-angle driving, faster assembly, high-torque demands, multifunctional recesses, and security needs to meet fit requirements can be designed into the fastener.
Featured Technologies: TORX Plus®, Phillips Square Driv®, Mortorq® Super
Multiple-point design features can eliminate troublesome cross-threading into a pre-tapped hole.
Featured Technologies: MAThread®
Requirements that allow materials to be thinner without sacrificing joint assembly performance can be met through different body and thread configurations.
Featured Technologies: SHEETtracs®, FASTITE® 2000™
Different thread options support multiple grades of steel and designs, including high-strength applications.
