For the uninitiated, industrial
fasteners are high-quality fasteners used in a number of applications, ranging
from the automobile industry to maritime and construction projects. Industrial
fasteners are also referred to as ‘permanent fasteners’ as they are able to
withstand a number of weather and chemical elements. Fasteners are made to connect
materials together and that is really their true use, and the increased usage
for these materials is primarily the driving force behind the considerable
growth of the industrial fastenersmarket global and India as well.
With respect to types and their
applications, industrial fasteners are broadly classified into –
Nails - One of the most
popular fasteners used to affix pieces of wood intact.
Screws - Screws are typically
stronger in nature wherein ease of removing these fasteners is good and are one
of the excellent ways of fastening.
Bolts - Bolts generally
feature components like nuts and washers to enable better bonding while the
objects are fastened.
Clamps - Clamps are probably
the best fasteners available in our disposal for fastening objects only for a
limited period of time without causing damage to the object while it is
unfastened.
Tapping screws – Tapping
screws enable quick installation, which typically form a mating thread when
fastened into a performed hole of the object. This process is known as thread
forming. The installation is quick tapping screws does not employ buts for
fastening.
Set Screws - Set screws
are used hold intact pulleys, collars, gears with a shaft. This semi-permanent
fasteners are available in various heads and points styles.
Studs - Studs are headless
fasteners, which are threaded externally. In this, one end of the fastener
connects with a tapped part while the other end meets with a standard nut.
Rising demand for fasteners in the automotive industry as well as construction and manufacturing industry in countries like China, Brazil, Saudi Arabia, Australia, Indonesia and India, is expected to drive the demand for industrial fasteners in the foreseeable future.
