Specialty Fasteners

Fasteners are efficient and practical tools frequently used on the job to fix parts and materials together. There are two basic types of fasteners: general purpose and specialty fasteners, allowing to perform a variety of tasks, from basic repairs to specific projects. Apart from general purpose, specialty fasteners are specified for a certain application, task or material. Some of them are designed only for use in automotive or aircraft applications, others in building construction or industrial equipment, or electronic devices, based on the application’s demands. From hex head cap and specialty screws to specialty nuts and bolts, we’ve got specialty fastener varieties to help you with almost any project. Whether it’s mounting a stereo dash console in your vehicle, or securing specific kinds of materials like metal, plastic, fabric, wood, or anything in between.

Each comes with specific head style, form of threading, type of the shank, form of the shoulder, and point style, depending on the materials, application and measurement systems. Head designs vary from hexagonal, square and round to oval, flat and other styles. Specialty fasteners may have an oval, round, ribbed, square or fin-necked shoulder form, and feature either blunt or sharp point style. The type of thread used wood will be different from the threading used for metal work. Fasteners also differ in strength to ensure a secure hold required for the specific task. Thanks to their flexibility, plastic fasteners are perfect for a variety of purposes, from organizing cables to keeping large objects together, especially for electrical components. High-strength and corrosion-resistant stainless steel fasteners are ideal for use in demanding conditions, while decking fasteners are great for use in the construction of decks, patios, and other wooden structures.
