COMPANY HISTORY:Alken-Ziegler is the largest pri-vately held cold forming company in the United States. We are a multifaceted company that offers parts forming, precision machin-ing and tool & die services to a wide variety of customers in the Americas, Europe and Asia. We are also a three-time recipient of the General Motors Supplier of the Year award. Since 1969, Alken-Ziegler has been a leader in the manufacture of high quality cold formed and machined parts. The company now maintains two locations, one in Taylor, MI and the other in Ket-tering, OH. Corporate headquar-ters is located at our automotive OEM manufacturing campus in Taylor. This facility is the center of our forming and secondary machining operations.For many years the automotive OEM and Tier 1 companies have depended upon independent screw machine companies to supply complex parts. In many cases screw machining came at a higher cost because of large amounts of material waste. This translated into higher prices. Cold forming offered an attractive solution.The cold forming process pro-vides a more efficient use of raw materials by moving the metal into its final form with little or no waste. Parts produced by cold forming also possess superior mechanical properties, achieved by cold working the metal as it is being formed. If precision toler-

ances are required, they can be achieved with minimal secondary machining.

MISSION STATMENT:Teamwork is the key ingredient in the “Beneke attitude”, every-one working for a common goal, the success of the customer, plus a shared pride in the quality of their work and the quality of the end product.

COMPANY HISTORY:Over forty years ago, Chuck Beneke had a vision. He believed there was a strong demand for high-quality, custom-produced aluminum wire. He was cer-tain customers would respond to the idea of aluminum wire manufactured to fit their specific requirements. He was right. In 1968 this wire industry pioneer joined with his son J. David Beneke and founded Beneke Wire Company.Beneke Wire Company started producing small orders of ex-tremely high-quality aluminum wire. Great attention was paid to the alloy, the finish and the rigid tolerances. More importantly, the company worked to produce wire that would improve their customer’s production process. By creating the right treatment or finish, Beneke Wire customers could possibly eliminate certain steps in their manufacturing, thus making a better end prod-uct at reduced production costs. This “partnership” between the Beneke engineering staff and the customer is a key ingredi-ent to the success of the entire operation.

David Beneke succeeded his fa-ther as president of the company in 1983 and he has continued to emphasize the traditions of value and service that has helped Beneke Wire grow into a world leader in aluminum wire production.

TODAY AND THE FUTURE:The next generation of the Beneke family is actively working within the corporation. Michael and Stephen Beneke are now part of the executive management team, working to assure continuity within the company for years to come. The same core values es-tablished by Chuck Beneke forty plus years ago have been passed on to this new, successful team of company management.Beneke Wire Company contin-ues to grow. With more than 200,000 square feet of manufac-turing space, Beneke provides aluminum wire to its customers worldwide.

PRODUCTS:Beneke Wire Company offers the most complete range of aluminum wire products on the market to an international customer base. All major aluminum alloys, both heat-treatable and non-heat-treatable, in a variety of tempers and drawn to exacting tolerances are avail-able. When you order wire from Beneke, you get more than a coil of wire. You receive the highest level of experience and pride in every package.

SERVICES OFFERED:With growth such as experienced at Beneke, comes new challenges and a search for new knowledge. This search is the function of the technical department at Beneke. Customers receive metallurgical and engineering services unsur-passed anywhere in the industry, including product analysis, in-spection and testing of raw materi-als and trial orders. Also available is Beneke’s participation in the PPAP program as required by the customer. All of this support is designed to ensure that the end product performs as intended.

QUALITY:The “Beneke attitude”, the compa-ny’s partnership approach, along with its vision and the effort of its employees has helped make Beneke Wire a qualified ISO 9001-2000 company.

INNOVATIONS:COVENTYA research has been able to substitute Cadmium depositions and associate different concentrations of Zinc-Nickel with hexavalent-free passivations such as the PERFORMA line with a high concentration of 12-15% Nickel. COVENTYA was one of the first companies to introduce trivalent pas-sivates to the Automotive Industry in 1997. LANTHANE 310 was the first passivate to be approved by Renault and Opel. This was followed by LAN-THANE TR 175, which is now the world’s most popular nano-particle based trivalent passivate. Both of the products were crucial in the efforts of replacing hexavalent chromates with high performance trivalent passivates.We also introduced Performa Mem-brane Systems for use in alkaline Zinc-Nickel electrolytes to prevent the formation of detrimental by-prod-ucts from forming at the anode during electrolysis. These membranes are syn-onymous with improving productivity as they significantly increase cathode efficiency.COVENTYA has obtained numerous automotive approvals from GM, VW, Renault, PSA, Audi, Toyota, Fiat, Honda, Ford, Volvo and Nissan.

COMPANY BACKGROUND:The company, ENKOTEC A/S, was established back in 1981 for producing and commercializing the newly devel-oped nail manufacturing machine. The introduction of the ENKOTEC rotary nail machine was a revolution within the nail industry, as the machine was totally different from the conventional nail manufacturing machines known since the turn of the 19th century. The nail machine quickly became a Danish export success and today ENKOTEC machines are running in nail factories located all over the world.At our headquarter address in Denmark we undertake the development, produc-tion and sale of machines and tooling for the manufacture of nails. We have regional sales offices in Cleveland, Ohio, and in Buenos Aires, and we co-operate with local commercial agents on selected markets.

(North America)Jan Sorige, [email protected] & Central America(as of September 1, 2011)Max Libedinsky, Regional Sales [email protected]

MISSION STATEMENT:ENKOTEC is a leading global supplier of machinery for the manufacture of mass-produced nails as well as custom-ized solutions. We create innovative and productive solutions for our customers.

PRODUCT LINES:ENKOTEC nail machines are unique by being based on a rotary forming principle, allowing wire feeding, wire cutting and head forming to take place in one continuous process of rotating movements. The ENKOTEC technology makes it possible to produce high-quality nails at an unprecedented speed, without compromising production stability, while requiring less space and fewer operators and offering the possibility of unmanned production. At the same time, this ma-chine concept allows to implement an environment friendly production with a low noise level, small energy con-sumption and an oil-free manufacturing process, eliminating the need for sub-sequent nail tumbling. Over the years, ENKOTEC has made continuous design and material improvements on the nail machine, thus meeting customer require-ments for increased cost-efficiency and user-friendliness. ENKOTEC’s product program includes various complementary machines supplied as standalone units or in-line systems.

Remarkably it has taken no more than a single generation for Mecavit to rise to the position of one of the most highly regarded Italian manufacturers of stainless and carbon steel fasteners, and to have achieved success in the most competi-tive of international markets.These achievements have been a direct result of Mecavit’s constant search for the highest quality standards. The company has always sought to use consistently high quality sources of raw materials; to invest in the most advanced and reliable production and control technolo-gies; and to adopt the very best in production management techniques. Mecavit has also worked assiduously to be sensitive to the ser-vice requirements of its customers, wherever they are located, and to be a business partner of the highest integrity.Mecavit’s new production facility, opened in 2000 is situated in a modern industrial zone, close to Bologna and in the heart of the most advanced engineering area in Italy. The premises were built with the most modern technological systems, and extend to an area of approximately 7500 square metres, 6500 dedicated to production and 1000 to offices. The new production plant provides a quality of working environment that safeguards the heath and physical well-being of the company’s workforce, as well as ensuring their motivation to continue to achieve the highest standards to its customers. In all that has been described Mecavit can be recognised as competitive and ready to face the future and continued hard challenges in the world of fasteners.

PRODUCTION CAPABILITIES:The Mecavit manufacturing range is strongly specialized in socket head and six-lobe small diameter screws in carbon high tensile steel and stainless steel. Only certified quality steels are allowed to enter the plant, even then under strict materials acceptance controls. Then, totally automated technologies trans-form them into fasteners and other similar parts, according to the most common stan-dards and to special customer requirements. For standard parts production adheres to the norms DIN, UNI, ISO and to the internation-al parameters prescribed by them. For special parts, Mecavit’s own team of highly trained technical staff, with the aid of advanced CAD systems, determine and initiate the produc-tion process. They interpret the drawing of customers, then develop specific production plans to deliver optimal solutions to meet the specific requirements expressed by the customer, for example in achieving higher levels of safety or integrity than defined by the norms, or by ensuring the final product will perform to higher standards.Each year Mecavit programmes a series if new investments in production and develop-ment technology. The company also, though, places great emphasis on ensuring a highly responsive attitude to its market. In doing so it has a clear objective to differentiate itself in the market through its technical capabilities, its production efficiency and also its com-mercial ability.

CUSTOMER SUPPORT:Customers of Mecavit are to be found in a whole range of prestige industries as well as in the distribution market. What they all have in common is an appreciation and trust in the reliability with which Mecavit sup-ports them. It is a reputation Mecavit values deeply and constantly seeks to uphold. Linking Mecavit’s manufacturing capability to its customers’ requirements is an efficient and dedicated pre and post sale commercial operation.

Nucor FasteNer DivisioNP.O. Box 6100, St. Joe, IN 46785 USAPhone: (800) 955-6826 from 7 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. EDTFax: (260) 337-1726E-mail: [email protected]: www.nucor-fastener.com

COMPANY HISTORY: In 1985, Nucor decided to open a fastener facility, expanding the company into other steel-related products. Rather than acquire an existing plant, Nucor decided to build a state-of-the-art manufacturing operation in St. Joe, IN. Many people were skeptical. At the time, low-priced imports were driving domestic manufacturers from the business. North American manufacturers had lost about 80 percent of the standard bolt and nut markets. But company leaders wanted to start with a clean slate and do things the Nucor way, focusing on longstanding principles of quality, integrity and customer service.Today, Nucor Fastener is a domestic leader in fastener production, manufacturing high-quality domestic standard fasteners, as well as special items made to individual customer specifications. We also add value to our standard product line through special fin-ishes, patches, adhesives and other secondary processing. But that’s just part of our story. As part of Nucor, we strive for continuous improvement. We have increased capacity to process wire, heat treat, form and warehouse. We’re committed to further improvement and expansion. Our goal: continue finding new ways to get our customers what they need, when they need it.

QUALITY ASSURANCE:The Nucor name is synonymous with qual-ity and stability. We maintain the integrity of our steel through an advanced tracking system that starts with the raw material coils and continues all the way through warehous-ing and shipping. Since our dedicated steel source is Nucor Nebraska, we know our steel’s history even before it arrives here. We control the manufacturing process, in-cluding wire processing (annealing/pickling), forming, heat treat, inspection, packaging and warehousing. Even after the fasteners are shipped, our system allows customers to acquire a full history of the steel.Our products are quality-tested throughout the manufacturing process and then again at final inspection prior to shipment to as-sure you of our commitment to high qual-ity products. Certifications and material test reports are available on raw material,

outside processing and finished products. Our quality registrations include ISO/TS 16949:2002, ISO 9001:2000 and A2LA. We’re also certified to ISO 14001 environ-mental standards.

PRODUCT LINE:At Nucor Fastener, our capability ranges from 1/4” (M6) diameter through 1-1/4” (M30), in lengths up to 10” (250mm). Our production takes place almost entirely within our 500,000-square-foot facility. Our large number of bolt makers provides capacity to meet customer needs and pro-vide redundancy across all sizes. In fact, when it comes to producing bolt diameters 3/4” (M20) and larger, we have one of the world’s largest capacities. We continue to manufacture high-quality hex head cap screws, finished hex nuts, structural bolts, nuts, assemblies and flange bolts. But we’ve also expanded our product line to include build-to-print fasteners. Head styles, dimensions, grades and finishes can be customized to meet individual specifica-tions. And through strategic alliances with processors, we’re able to accommodate spe-cial finishes, patches, adhesives and other secondary processing requirements to help you streamline your supply chain.No matter what your needs are, you can trust Nucor Fastener to get you the right products to get the job done. During construction of the Cooper River Bridge in South Carolina, for example, about one million mechanically galvanized bolts and nuts – primarily 7/8” and 1” diameters – were used to support North America’s largest cable stay span bridge. Nucor fasteners have also been used in other high-profile projects, such as the Indianapolis Motor Speedway and stadi-ums for the Pittsburgh Steelers, Cleveland Browns and Indiana Pacers. Nucor fasteners can be found in other leading company’s products, including Freightliner, Navistar, Peterbilt, Kenworth, Volvo, Deere-Hitachi and Bobcat.

WHAT’S DIFFERENT ABOUT NUCOR FASTENER:Nucor has repeatedly been heralded not only as a leader in the steel industry, but also as one of the top companies in the world.

Nucor is consistently ranked in the Top 50 Companies by BusinessWeek. Nucor was honored in 2007 as one of IndustryWeek’s 50 Best Manufacturing Companies. Nucor is regularly named one of Fortune’s Most Admired Companies. As part of Nucor, we take care of our cus-tomers, our employees, our suppliers and the environment. Every piece that comes from our plant is marked with the quality, integrity and stability that’s associated with the Nucor name.And our Indiana location is a big advantage. We’re centrally located between major markets and distribution points. More im-portantly, we’re right here in the U.S. That means we can get products to you quickly, and we’re only a phone call away if you ever have questions.

CUSTOMER SERVICE/TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE:Nucor Fastener’s business foundation is based on our commitment to quality, in-tegrity, competitive pricing, service and continuous improvement. We offer “World Class Customer Service” to our customers through our people, our most valuable as-set. Regardless if it is our regionally located Sales Representatives, Inside Sales Staff or Technical Staff, all are ready to provide the assistance you need. Technical Data sheets are provided on our web-site and other train-ing can be coordinated as-needed.

COMPANY PROFILE:Rotor Clip makes all of its retaining

rings, wave springs and hose clamp products in a 280,000 square foot manufacturing space on 64 acres in Somerset, New Jersey. This vertically integrated concept is one that many manufacturers have abandoned over the years in exchange for cheaper-run-ning plants in foreign countries. But by performing all of the critical steps in producing retaining rings in-house (like die design/building, stamping, wire forming, heat treating and finishing), Rotor Clip is able to provide customers with quality, repeatable products they can rely on to consistently perform in the most critical applications.

Another advantage is the wealth of knowledge Rotor Clip employees have gained in these critical areas. Engi-neers, toolmakers, machine operators and quality inspectors have worked together to solve problems and initi-ate improvements. By not exporting critical technology to outside sources, these key personnel have gained a wealth of knowledge they can share with their customers to help them se-lect the most effective and economical retaining ring for their application.

Although enthusiastically commit-ted to American manufacturing, Rotor Clip is still every bit a global company, selling product into major automotive and distributor markets in Europe, Asia, South America and Australia.

PRODUCT LINE:Rotor Clip is the only manufacturer

in the world offering all three major types of retaining rings: tapered, con-stant section and spiral. These are made to inch, DIN, ANSI metric and JIS standards in carbon steel, stainless steel and beryllium copper.

Unlike other companies we don’t claim one retaining ring is better than another. Rather, it’s about your applica-tion and what you need to make it work. With the help of Rotor Clip engineers, you’ll find the one retaining ring that works best for you, rather than the one

that’s best for us to sell you.Rotor Clip military retaining rings

are also available, manufactured to military specifications under Cage Code 07382.

Stainless steel parts for military need to be made from PH15-7 stainless material, which Rotor Clip can provide. This material is not readily available in Europe and the Pacific Rim, limiting the ability of other sources to provide certified rings to their customers.

MS parts made from High Carbon Spring Steel are also available; manu-factured domestically, and processed from Rotor Clip’s extensive catalog of tooled parts. Finishes include: Cadmi-um; Zinc Dichromate, and Phosphate.

Stainless steel and beryllium copper parts have been certified as domesti-cally melted by raw material suppliers for purposes of DFARS 252.225-7014, “Preference for domestic specialty met-als.” Certifications are provided Free of Charge.

Rotor Clip also offers single turn, multi turn, and nested wave springs. A wave spring is made from coiled flat wire with waves added to give it a spring effect. Wave springs are superior to coil springs in certain applications because they provide lower work heights with the same force. This not only provides for space savings, but also smaller assemblies that use less materi-als, hence lower production costs.

THE GREEN FASTENER:Using Rotor Clip retaining rings in

place of threaded fasteners where ap-propriate reduces scrap and hazardous waste caused by machining shoulders and use of excess cutting fluids. Our wave springs provide lower work heights than coil springs with the same force – resulting in smaller assemblies that use less material. Rotor Clip products can be produced to meet the requirements of the RoHS and ELV directives.

QUALITY:With all the recent news stories

concerning quality mistakes from

overseas as well as in the States, Rotor Clip is dedicated to providing custom-ers with a part that exceeds standard specifications. This includes providing documentation showing critical quality, material & heat treating specs, as well as lot traceability and country of origin. All Rotor Clip products are designed & manufactured in the USA in one facility, registered to ISO/TS 16949:2009.

SERVICE:Rotor Clip is not just a manufactur-

ing facility. It is a support center for customers from the moment of contact. Whether it’s placing an order, needing design assistance, or finding the right part, Rotor Clip is there to help through-out the business relationship.

The Rotor Express program provides customers with small package quantities of retaining rings that would otherwise be too costly to process from Rotor Clip’s facility. Through a series of partnerships throughout the country, customers can purchase low-volumes of product at extremely competitive prices.

COMPANY HISTORY:S&M Retaining Rings became a division of Schneider & Mar-quard in January of 2001 as a result of the vision of the current owner Michael J. O’Shea, who realized the need for additional manufacturers in the retaining ring market. Originally a tool & die maker, he also brought to S&M over 20 years of hands-on experience in the complete manufacturing of retaining rings. With the understanding of the skills and limitations of the other retaining ring manufacturing companies in the USA, England, and Germany, he developed new designs for high-speed precision tooling. This tooling has made it possible for S&M Retaining Rings to produce and deliver ex-ceptional quality rings in a short period of time. By utilizing our tool and die manufacturing resources and Mike’s experience in the industry, S&M Retaining Rings has been able to quickly grow into the major retaining ring supplier it is today. S&M Retaining Rings initially began and continues to manufacture higher volume rings in order to satisfy the market’s demand for these items. Custom rings are also fabricated based on our customer’s needs.

OUR PRODUCTS:S&M Retaining Rings has a significant inventory of rings, including 1074 carbon steel, stainless steel (PH15-7Mo) and beryllium copper. We can sup-ply our carbon steel rings with black phosphate, zinc bright/clear, zinc dichromate yellow, and zinc trivalent plating. Our rings are manufactured to the military standard and certificates of compliance to the MS number are available upon request. All of the items we manufacture are DFAR compliant.

We also manufacture retaining ring applicators and dispensers for our customers and have the capability to fabricate custom automated tooling for a compa-ny’s individual application.

All of the employees at S&M Retaining Rings strive to make sure that our rings will always meet the highest quality stan-dards. Our rings are inspected continuously throughout the manufacturing process with ex-cellent SPC results. Our employ-ees are committed to total quality management from the time we quote the job until the rings are shipped from our facility. We stand behind the quality of our rings 100% and are very proud to be ISO2001:2008 certified.

OUR FUTURE:Mike O’Shea, his son Michael, and the employees of S&M are taking steps to prepare and ex-pand for the future so that our customers may be serviced more effectively. We are steadily in-creasing our product line each year and will soon be offering some metric sizes in addition to our inch sizes.

Employees of S&M are proud to say that we continue to manu-facture all of our products in our own facility in New Jersey, and in turn are helping to support the United States’ economy.

COMPANY HISTORY: Joseph Volltrauer founded Volt Industrial Plastics, Inc., June 1, 1992, but Volt’s roots go back fur-ther then 18 years. They really go back to 1958 when Joe got a job as a apprentice tool and die maker for Acme Tool & Die in Chicago. In 1973 he stared his own company, JV Tool, and a couple of years later moved to Arkansas where he de-signed his exceptionally functional, high quality molds for manufactur-ers of plastic components. JV Tool was a problem solver, a quality improver, a cost saver. In 1992 Joe decided he could use all of his mold and tool making expertise to efficiently produce quality plastic fasteners in his own company and he founded Volt Industrial Plastics, Inc. He infused the entire company with his uncompromising dedication to quality and service and shared his knowledge of mold making.

PRODUCTS: Volt offers a wide range of plastic fasteners in over 120 different materials. They keep 500 million pieces in inventory for same day shipping. Volt also offers custom molding if a fastener is not cur-rently available in their catalog. ISO 9001 certified. Volt Industrial Plastics products are the finest made anywhere. Due to thorough quality control, you need not worry about mold flashing or mismatched parting lines. Some of the products offered by Volt Industrial Plastics include:• Threaded Rod• Adhesive Backed Wire &

Cable Clips

• Cable Tie Mounts• Cable Clamps• Plugs• Circuit Board Hardware• Clips• Metric• Nuts• Pins• Rivets• Push in Fasteners• Screws• Studs• Spacers • Standoffs• Stem Bumpers• Washers....and more!• Free samples available

creased inventory. Volt has been looking forward to this move since they bought the 65,000 square foot building in 2007, but the economy forced them to stay at their old facil-ity in Flippin until 2011. Over the last four years they have made small steps toward their move and then finally moved the entire inventory, machines and all departments over to Yellville in May, 2011. “This is a very exciting time for us and we have been waiting patiently and watching the economy for four years to be in our new home. We now have the room to grow and add prod-uct lines we did not have the square footage to add in our old facility,” says Heidi Volltrauer COO of Volt Industrial Plastics, Inc.

PRODUCTS:

LaserLab: A 3-Dimensional, semi-automatic model designed to measurecylindrical parts used for first articleinspection, Ppap’s, performing SPCsampling and auditing suppliers to insure parts meet specified tolerances.This gauge is fast, accurate and aninexpensive alternative to manual inspection.

Gi-360: A 3-Dimensional, 100% “quantitative” measuring system for high volume fastener and screw machine part manufacturers. Using 8 laserspositioned in 360 degrees. The Gi-360 measures parts to print at rates up to 600 per minute. It measures all external dimensions including threads, tapers, angles, lengths, diameters, concentricity, straightness etc.

Gi-300: An automated 100% laser sorting system. Tilt head lasertechnology, precision narrow laser beams, multi laser velocity gauge, splitlaser beam and three wire modeling—with true system 22 threadmeasuring capability—are all GI’s inventions. All used to accuratelymeasure lengths, diameters, threads and tapers. The tilt head laser automatically positions itself to the part angle to remove cosine error. Time saving software displays external features and easily scrolls across the screen to display each features measurement. A virtual three-wire threadmodeling technique is used to measure thread characteristics on everypart. The laser optics system with its narrow/split laser beam allowsaccurate proportions of small non-symmetric features. And the multi-laser array accurately measures the variations in the velocity of the partachieving extremely precise length measurements.

Gi-200: An automated laser gauging/sorting system capable of measuringlengths, diameters, threads and tapers at rates up to 600 parts per minute.Every part is inspected before entering the assembly operation,eliminating costly downtime caused by jam-ups.As with all of Gi machines, data reports, multi-sensor velocity gauges,NIST traceable diameter calibration, network service and true partstorage/retrieval set-up are standard.No special operator training is necessary and set up time is approximatelyfive minutes.

Gi-100: A flat part (nuts, washers, bushing, rings, etc.) inspection system.A high-speed vision-based measuring machine that uses CCD cameras to calculate and measure parts heights (lengths), profiles, inner/outer diameters, concentricity and detects surface defects. Microsoft Windowsbased software makes part set-up easy, and allows for parts storage and retrieval. Vision is available to check for internal threads. And optionalEddy-Current lets you check for metallurgical defects such as cracks,seams, and missing features (like weld nibs, chamfers) along with platingor hardness variations.

Gi-50: A digital, multi frequency Eddy-Current sorting system that inspects a wide range of materials. It detects metallurgical defects such as cracks,seams, hardness and plating variations as well as missing external features—like grooves, chamfers and threads.Features include: Balanced coils that remove variations from environmental influences and part storage/retrieval set-up. Once a parthas been scanned it remains in the GI-50s memory. A digital graph andimpedance plane make new part set-up easy and a zoom feature allowsfor the detection of smaller variations from good to defective parts.

MISSION STATEMENT:“To service our customers’ fastener and machinery needs at a level of excellence that exceeds their expectations.” It’s more than just a bunch of words! It’s been the essence of our business for over 30 years of consistent growth.

COMPANY HISTORY:Hanger Bolt & Stud Co. was started in 1967 by L.D. Enterkin. The original operation consisted of a single threader in a cramped one-car garage in Indianapolis, Indiana.

By 1977, continued growth had forced the com-pany into its third building in 10 years. Shortly after this move, both the machine division and our wire drawing operation were started. Also by this time, the second generation of Enterkins had assumed management. In 1987, the company purchased 5 acres in Greenfield,

Indiana (15 miles east of Indianapolis) and constructed a new facility. Increased produc-tion requirements soon led to an expansion of this facility.

Today, our headless fasteners can be found in nearly every home in America.

test results. Our most popular coating, Magni 565, has a combination of an inorganic zinc-rich base coat and an aluminum-rich top coat, plus an integration of friction modifiers which produces repeatable torque tension.

Magni 565 Military is in demand by military assemblers, such as TACOM, BAS Systems, BAE, AM General, and Plasan, for exceeding coating performance criteria necessary to withstand battle field conditions and its custom camouflage colorings.

Magni 501 is Magni’s newest coating development. It is a single-coat, zinc-rich fastener coating system replac-ing zinc plating and trivalent passivation. The thin layer chemistry combination of Magni 501 delivers exceptional corrosion resistance, no hydrogen embrittlement con-cerns, cost savings, long endurance, and environmental compliance (RoHS, WEE, ELV, and REACH). The performance properties, such as uniform film thickness, improved adhesion, chip resistance, consistence torque tension, paintable and no post-coating sealers are exactly the traits desired by metal component manufacturers.

To combat corrosion on large-scale windmills and ex-posed solar panels, industry engineers are protecting all their metal components with Magni coatings. Today’s wind machines have Magni’s “paint” on their M12-M45 size fasteners, screws, and various nuts, studs and washers. For visible solar panel fasteners, building hardware and deck screws, Magni customizes the coating colors for an attractive cosmetic appearance while maintaining protec-tive properties. Commercial non-automotive producers demand Magni coatings for its consistent performance in corrosion protection, appearance and lubricity.

Magni’s informed and resourceful Global Sales Team is committed to customers and partners in servicing the automotive and industrial markets.

Smalley Steel Ring Company is a manufac-turer of Spirolox® Retaining Rings, Constant Section Rings

and Wave Springs. Spiral rings offer a 360° retaining surface and are interchangeable with standard stamped ring groovess. Spiral retaining rings require no special tooling for removal and have No Ears to Interfere® with the assembly. Flat wire wave springs reduce heights by up to 50% while offering the same force and deflec-tion as standard coil springs. Wave springs fit in tight radial and axial spaces. With over 9,000 standard parts to select from, all Smalley parts are available in carbon and stainless steel off the shelf. Special parts can range from .200” to 120” in diameter. There are No-Tooling-Charge™ on specials. Exotic alloys are readily available.

ABOUT SMALLEY:Smalley, for over 40 years, has manufactured

retaining rings and wave springs using our unique coiling technology. Smalley has become estab-lished as the top manufacturer of spiral retaining rings and flat wire wave springs. Smalley is ISO 9001, ISO/TS 16949, AS9100 and ISO 14001 certified.

PRODUCTS:Wave/Compression Springs: Smalley Wave

Springs (Flat Wire Compression Springs) offer the unique advantage of space savings when used to replace coil springs. By reducing spring operat-ing height, wave springs also produce a decrease in the spring cavity. With a smaller assembly size and less material used in the manufacturing process, a cost savings is realized. Wave springs operate as load bearing devices. They take up play and compensate for dimensional variations within assemblies. A virtually unlimited range of forces can be produced whereby loads build either gradually or abruptly to reach a predetermined working height. This establishes a precise spring rate in which load is proportional to deflection.

Spirolox® Retaining Rings: Spirolox Retain-ing Rings, available exclusively from Smalley, have No Ears To Interfere® with the mating components in the assembly. Spiral rings of-fer a 360° retaining surface, require no special tooling for removal and are interchangeable with ordinary snap ring grooves.

Constant Section Rings: Constant Section Rings are often specified for heavy duty or im-pact loading applications. Smalley offers eight series of rings from stock in over 1,000 sizes.

Laminar Sealing Rings: A Smalley Laminar Sealing Ring is a metallic labyrinth seal consist-ing of multiple rings in a groove. This arrange-ment of the rings and the specific orientation of the rings are dictated by the application and the severity of the environment.

MANUFACTURING PROCESS: Smalley offers an exclusive Circular-Grain® Process. This process is not a stamping, but rather a continuous coil that is made from edge-wound, pre-hardened, spring-tempered flat wire. The flat wire has a grain structure that is linear, providing exceptional strength and dimensional stability. Smalley’s unique manufacturing process reduces scrap allowing for the economical production of special alloy products including a large selection of stainless steel retaining rings and wave springs.

FREE SAMPLES: Smalley will send samples of catalog items for your evaluation, free of charge. To make a request, simply go to www.smalley.com/sam-ples. From www.smalley.com you can request free samples, catalogs, download CAD models and request design assistance or design your own application specific ring or spring.

COMPANY PrOfile:WINGTONE INDUSTRIAL CO., LTD. (here-inafter referred to as Wingtone) was established in 1980. It developed the solid roller as initial product, based on nut forming technology. This was a revolutionary way of making rollers to all chain manufacturers in the world. It suc-cessfully helped chain industry grow rapidly due to high quality and reasonable price. Later, collars, of lockbolt, were put into the produc-tion lines by using the same forming method. In 1986, Wingtone applied the one-time form-ing technology into speaker yoke production. Once again, it helped the speaker manufactur-ers widely lower the cost and have prosperous business for years since then.In 1994, Wingtone designed and assembled 7-station cold forming machines to produce high quality products. From that time on, it began to upgrade the forming machines from the con-ventional 5-station to the 7-station innovated. Wingtone was awarded as the best supplier in areas of quality, cost, delivery, and cooperation for fiscal year 1995 by Panasonic in Japan. From 1996, its product types were successfully expanded into the automotive and construction industries, based on its cold forming capabilities. This transition not only diversified the product

types, but also increased the sales growth and profitability. Now, Wingtone has already had hundreds of products in production.MAiN PrODUCT TYPes:Wingtone currently focuses on developing spe-cial female parts using its special cold forming technologies. Its products include: • Automotive Parts • Special Weld Nuts • Spacers & Washers • Long Tubes • Special Parts • Rollers & Bushes (for chain) • Collars (for Lockbolt)fACiliTies:Wingtone possesses the abilities to design and assemble the forming machines by itself. Therefore, it has a wide range of forming machines, which are all made in-house. Its forming machines for production currently include: 11B, 15B, 19B, 24B, 27B, 30B and 50B. In addition, Wingtone also has its own tooling factory to design and make all of the tooling in-house. These advantages enable it to reach the customers’ demand of various kinds of high-level products.

TeChNOlOgies & sPeCiAlTies:The 7-station forming technology, developed by Wingtone itself, achieves the technical in-novation in fastener production. Currently, its equipment can produce the parts with maximum length up to 130mm and maximum O.D. up to 50mm. Besides, its technologies can fulfill cus-tomer’s strict requirements in perpendicularity, parallelism, calibration and so on. Wingtone’s specialties are especially in the SHAPED parts, which conventionally take secondary opera-tion, such as machining, in the same industry. This helps the customers to lower the cost and upgrade the quality at the same time.ACCreDiTATiONs & PATeNTs: • ISO/TS 16949:2002 • ISO 9001:2000 • 9 forming machine patents in Taiwan • 6 forming machine patents in China/IndiaOffiCe:WiNgTONe iNDUsTriAl CO., lTD.No. 291, Tung Jung St., Kuan Miao HsiangTainan Hsien, TaiwanT: +886-6-5961234 • F: +886-6-5961300E-Mails: [email protected] [email protected]: www.wingtone.com.tw
