Fastener Materials

Materials for Fasteners and Precision Components

Pattern Fasteners manufactures standard, special and custom fasteners in a wide range of materials to suit different mechanical, environmental and performance requirements.

Material selection can affect a component’s strength, hardness, corrosion resistance, temperature capability, weight and service life. We work from customer drawings, recognised standards, existing samples and bespoke specifications to manufacture parts in the most appropriate grade for the application.

Selecting the Right Fastener Material

The most suitable material will depend on factors such as:

• Required tensile and shear strength

• Operating temperature

• Exposure to moisture or chemicals

• Corrosion resistance

• Weight restrictions

• Electrical or thermal conductivity

• Heat-treatment requirements

• Compatibility with surrounding components

• Relevant industry standards

Our experienced team can review your application and help identify a suitable material grade, manufacturing process and finish.

Custom Fasteners in Specialist Materials

Where standard components are unsuitable, we can manufacture bespoke fasteners and precision parts to customer-specific requirements.

Materials, dimensions, thread forms, tolerances, heat treatments and finishes can all be incorporated into the manufacturing specification.
