Chances are that at some point you will have driven or been driven in a car, travelled in or perhaps even flown a plane or used tools to carry out DIY in the home or as part of your job, but have you ever considered the extent to which the fasteners (nuts and bolts, etc) on these items affect our everyday lives? It is vital that anyone involved in the design or manufacture of vehicles, aeroplanes and tools ensures their components are put through rigorous fastener testing to guarantee the safety of the whole object.
Take for example the two fasteners which look the same. One bolt holds its predicted load quite comfortably whereas the other shears off and breaks under the same load. The success and safety of an entire project can rely upon something so simple and small as the design of a nut or bolt so it is vital that this is picked up in the early stages by your fastener testing labs.
By identifying potential flaws in your components early on, it gives you the time you need to seek and gain the necessary approval, extend the service life of your components and ensure greater operating safety.
Typical fastener testing procedures will include bending yield testing, shear testing, chemical analysis and coating weight.
Fastener testing labs have state of the art machinery and are fully equipped and dedicated to precision testing to meet with your particular requirements. Their staff will be fully trained and experienced in metals science and engineering to ensure you get the highest quality fastener testing.
These high standards are essential to protect you and your business from manufacturing or using substandard components or workmanship. It also ensures that your customers are given the best quality materials and service.
When the success of your project, product or service depends upon all the component parts, no matter how small, doing their respective jobs efficiently, fastener testing labs can help you to ensure that these components are suited to their intended use and will perform to expectations, safely.
