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

Light MetalsLight 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 FasteningFlow Drilling Screw Fastening

Assembly into multilayered sheets of material without the use of a pre-made hole, allow for an assembly and design that secures the joint and resists vibration while still providing the option of disassembly.

Featured Technologies: FDS®, FastFlow® FDS®


Plastics and Composite OptionsPlastics and Composite Options

Thermoplastic, Thermosets, and Composite materials pose various challenges.  Designs that support smaller bosses, cosmetic appearance, clamp load loss, vibration and possible insert removal are addressed by these options.
