Manufacture of steel fasteners may include numerous treatment techniques, for example hardening, tempering or austempering. “Hardening and tempering” is a heat treatment process which involves applying heat of various levels of intensity to a piece of metal until it reaches the optimal hardness and durability. Austempering is a similar process, however it also involves placing the steel in a molten salt bath which results in it being infused with an acicular microstructure known as bainite. These techniques ensure that our fasteners are always fit for their particular applications. SD Products offers metal fasteners in a number of finishes: black, blue, zinc, as well as special automotive and custom finishes on request.
Metal Panel & Trim Fasteners
Metal panel and trim fasteners offer the most reliable and secure fixings for a variety of materials. Carbon and spring steel used in the manufacture of our fasteners makes them highly resistant to stress and tough enough to withstand even the most extreme conditions without permanent deformation. Metal panel and trim fasteners have a huge number of uses – they can vary widely from securing fabrics and plastics in place to security panel installation on heavy machinery.
