Fewer Parts, Stronger Joints: The Aluminum Sleeve Way

Combining a stud, a bushing and a washer into one cold-formed sleeve — fewer parts, fewer tolerance stacks, lower assembly cost.

On the assembly line, the failures you remember are rarely the parts that were too weak — they're the joints that had too many parts. One mounting point might need a stud, a bushing, a washer and an extra press-fit step. Every extra component adds a layer of tolerance and a chance to go wrong.

Our multi-station cold forming collapses that stack. A single aluminum sleeve carries the positioning, the bearing surface and the fastening in one near-net-shape part, with grain flow that follows the load. The result: fewer part numbers, faster assembly and a joint that's simpler to validate.

The Invisible Nut: 3 Seconds on a 1 mm Sheet

Thin panels can't be tapped and you can't reach the back — our rivet nuts put a clean thread on a 1 mm sheet in about 3 seconds.

Try to put an M6 bolt into a 1 mm sheet and you hit an awkward wall: the material is too thin to tap, welding a nut burns the coating and warps the panel, and the back side is often unreachable anyway.

Our rivet nuts are installed from one side in about three seconds — clean, high-clamp threads on thin panels, closed profiles and multi-material stacks. With a sealing-ring variant, they do double duty in sealed battery and body joints.

TORXplus® Licensed: Premium Torque Transfers

As a valued TORXplus® licensee, we offer high torque-transfer drive systems for heavy-duty, high-precision assemblies.

High-load assemblies need a drive system that won't slip or strip at the moment of peak torque. As a licensed TORXplus® partner since 2020, we machine and cold-form premium TORXplus® drive geometries across our fastener range.

The result is higher torque transfer, longer tool life and fewer damaged drive sockets in the field — a small detail that protects uptime in demanding applications.

Why 85% of a Fastener's Cost Is Invisible

A bolt's sticker price is only 15% of its true cost. The other 85% hides in design, logistics, quality and assembly.

The cheapest fastener on the invoice is rarely the cheapest fastener you'll ever use. The real cost lives in the 85% around it — the wrong spec, the extra part, the late delivery, the rework and the field failure.

That's why we measure our value in the total cost we remove: design consultation, process optimization and in-house validation that cut cost across the whole lifecycle, not just the unit price.

Lightweighting Without Losing Strength: The ZT68 Story

ZT68 aluminum bolts cut joint weight by up to 65% while holding ≈630 MPa tensile — lightweighting that doesn't compromise.

In EVs and low-carbon transport, every kilogram saved matters — but a fastener can't trade strength for weight. The ZT68 platform solves that with a cold-forged, one-piece flange design and ≈630 MPa tensile strength.

With stable friction, controlled corrosion behavior and a 150°C temperature rating, ZT68 bolts let engineers lightweight the joint itself, not just the panel around it.
