Technology Solutions

Today's demanding applications require multiple options to achieve the most cost-effective designs and proper assembly parameters.

Light Metals

Provides options for assembly into aluminum, zinc, and magnesium with emphasis on compact application designs, temperature expansion /contraction, reusability and decreased debris generation.

Featured Technologies: ALtracs® Plus, TAPTITE PRO®, Mag-Form®

---

Flow Drilling Screw Fastening

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.

Featured Technologies: FDS®, OptiFlow™

---

Plastics and Composite Options

Thermoplastic, Thermoset, and Composite materials pose various challenges.  These options address designs that support smaller bosses, cosmetic appearance, clamp load loss, vibration, and possible insert removal.

Featured Technologies: EVO PT®, DELTA PT®, DELTA PT® DS, Remform® II™ Screws

Plastic Components

Alternate clips of plastic can provide design benefits over steel materials.

Featured Technologies: EASYboss® V

---

Pressed and Molded in Technologies

These products support application requirements, from pressing in studs to secure metals to molded–in options for plastics.

Featured Technologies: Strux®, PlasTORX®

---

Thread Locking

Mechanical Locking of threads can provide cost and design options over applying adhesives and patches.

Featured Technologies: POWERLOK® II™

---

Drive Systems

Options for off-angle driving, faster assembly, high torque demands, multi-functional recesses, and security needs to stick fit requirements can be designed into the fastener.

Featured Technologies: TORX Plus®, Phillips Square Driv®, Mortorq® Super

---

Cross Thread Prevention

Troublesome cross-threading into a pre-tapped hole can be eliminated by multiple-point design features.

Featured Technologies: MAThread®

---

Thin Sheet Metal Assemblies

Different body and thread configurations can achieve requirements that allow materials to be thinner without sacrificing assembly performance in the joint.

Featured Technologies: SHEETtracs®, FASTITE® 2000™

---

Steels

Multiple grades of steel and designs, including high-strength applications, can be supported by different thread options.

Featured Technologies: Rolok® HS®, TAPTITE PRO®
