“The company’s comprehensive range of quality branded fasteners and related products and accessories is carefully sourced from leading manufacturers and suppliers within South Africa, as well as from Europe and the Far East,” says managing director, Darryl Campbell. “We have recognised the need locally for the ready availability of many different types of fasteners, especially those for specialised applications. Our range is enhanced by a wide selection of tools, abrasives, bearings, power transmission components and engineering supplies.”
The Fastener Factory has been appointed exclusive southern African distributor for Heico-Lock washers, which are manufactured in Germany. These wedge locking washers and nuts and ring lock washers are used to prevent loosening caused by vibration and dynamic loads. An important feature of the Heico-Lock wedge lock system is the securing of the bolt fastening using preload force rather than friction. Leading brands of tools include Dewalt, Kraftwerk, King Tony, Microtec and Qualitools. The company also supplies DYZV branded bearing and power transmission items, as well as Somta drilling and cutting products. The Fastener Factory is a level four contributor to B-BBEE.
