Fastener Solutions for the Defence Industry

Fasteners are a crucial component in the defence industry, used to hold parts of military equipment and vehicles together. They are designed for high-stress applications and must meet stringent requirements. Fasteners used in defence applications must be reliable, durable, corrosion resistant, and able to withstand extreme temperatures and harsh environments.

The fasteners used in defence applications are often made of materials such as titanium or high-strength steel, which can withstand the rigours of high stress and intense environments. Fasteners in the defence industry must also be resistant to corrosion. They are often exposed to harsh conditions, such as saltwater or acidic environments that can corrode the metal. Galvanizing or coating the fasteners with materials such as zinc or chrome is common practice to prevent corrosion and rust.

Fasteners used in the defence industry must also meet stringent safety standards. They must be installed correctly, with the right torque and tension, to ensure maximum safety and reliability.
