Fasteners
A Fastener is a hardware device that mechanically joins or affixes 2 or more objects together. In general fasteners are used to create non-permanent joints. These joints can be removed or dismantled as and when required and without damaging the joining components.
Fasteners are usually made from Stainless Steel, Carbon Steel and Alloy Steel.
Fasteners are fitting and tightening products such as Screw, Bolt, Nuts and Washer.
Just like all other products made from Stainless, Copper and Alloy Steel. Fasteners also have their standards and chemical compositions and they are mentioned below.
