Exhibition organisers Newbycom believe that threaded inserts will remain
crucial to the continued development of many modern products, so they are
likely to be of significant interest to buyers and specifiers visiting
the Fastening & Assembly Solutions Exhibition at the National Motorcycle
Museum this October.
Key suppliers who are there to discuss threaded insert technology,
pricing, availability and also offer application advice include
InsertsDirect: www.insertsdirect.com who state that they are determined
to be price competitive on all kinds of threaded inserts for plastics,
wood and sheet metal applications.
Elsewhere in the exhibition visitors will find Bollhoff Fastenings Ltd:
www.bollhoff.com who have this year become the exclusive source for
HeliCoil® products including inserts, taps and tools. Their experts will
be on hand to discuss new design and production requirements.
KeenSerts offer high strength joints in low strength materials and can be
specified in both metric and inch sizes. They are available for viewing
and discussion from exhibitors Specialty Fasteners & Components at
