Fasteners are indispensable in various industries, serving as fundamental components in construction, machinery assembly, and product manufacturing. At CNV Engineering, we offer an extensive range of fasteners, crafted from various high-grade materials to suit specific industry requirements.
Materials used in Fasteners
Our fasteners are available in several material grades, each selected for its unique properties and suitability for different applications:
Grades Gr8.8, 10.9, 12.9: Ideal for automotive and general engineering, known for their high tensile strength and durability.
B7, 2H: Commonly used in applications requiring robust fasteners capable of withstanding high pressures and temperatures.
B8MA, NACE: Special stainless steel grades, suitable for corrosive environments, often used in the valve- oil & gas industries.
SS410 (Stud only): Provides good strength and corrosion resistance, suitable for specific applications like stud bolts.
SS202, SS304, SS304L, SS316, SS316L: Stainless steel variants offering a balance of corrosion resistance and strength, used across various sectors including aerospace and food processing machinery.
Types of Fasteners and Their Applications:
Type of Fastener | Description | Common Applications |
---|---|---|
Hex Bolts | Characterized by a hexagonal head, used for fastening two or more parts together. | General engineering, construction. |
Hex Nuts, Heavy Hex Nuts | Typically used in conjunction with a bolt or screw to secure components. | Automotive, machinery assembly. |
Square Nuts | Four-sided nuts offering a larger surface area against the part being fastened. | Railways, heavy machinery. |
Nylock Nuts | Incorporate a nylon insert to prevent loosening under vibration. | Aerospace, automotive. |
Allen Bolts (Socket Head Cap Screws) | Contain a socket for a hex key, allowing for tighter fastening. | Precision equipment, electronics. |
Countersunk Bolts | Designed to sit flush with the surface of the material. | Aerospace, decorative applications. |
Washers, Spring Washers | Distribute the load or provide a locking function. | Broad range of industrial applications. |
Custom Made Profile Washers | Tailored to specific requirements for unique applications. | Specialized machinery, bespoke projects. |
Eyebolts | Used for attaching a securing eye to a structure, enabling lifting or rigging. | Construction, lifting equipment. |
