Bagging Fasteners the Right Way

When it comes to bagging fasteners of any kind, Advance has the man-power and machine-power to get the job done. Plastic fasteners are especially sensitive to drying out and becoming brittle. By injecting small amounts of distilled water into each bag, the plastics retains its form and color. 

Just another great value-added service for our customers. Advance is the distributor's source for quality products and customer service. May we bag that for you?

Things Come Apart- Look at all the fasteners!

Here's a great book - Things Come Apart by Todd McLellan.
Just looking at the amazing photographs is inspiring, and the text is clever as well.
It shows you how fasteners hold everything together, and what it takes to build something as simple as a drill or a lawnmower. It's a fascinating look inside. We'll be posting more photos from the book in future posts. Enjoy!

AR TINNERMAN MULTI-THREAD U NUT

The definition of a fastener powerhouse from AR Tinnerman: 
A Nut that self retains onto a panel at the edge-of-panel or a hole in the center-of-panel. Once positioned, a screw is driven through the mating panel and through the nut, securing the panels together.
