At FTC, the specific requirements of the military and aerospace industries are at the core of everything we do.
Along with our sister companies based in the States, Mexico and Europe, we are one of the leading global suppliers of high-specification fasteners in the military and aerospace industry and as such have an extensive portfolio of fasteners.
Low profile spring loaded screws
All spring-loaded screws have the advantage of applying a more even pressure when they are first installed, making the positioning of the parts being joined more secure. Low profile spring loaded screws have the advantage of offering a thinner head. These are ideal for use in settings where there is significantly limited vertical space, but where countersinking to achieve a flush finish is not possible or desirable. Equally, they can be used where the aesthetic design of the parts being attached is salient, such as in components that are to be used in areas of an aircraft that are visible to the public.
State-of-the-art manufacturing facility
Based in California, since our inception over four decades ago, we have invested in an extensive range of manufacturing equipment. This enables us to work with a wide range of materials, ensuring that our fasteners, including low-profile spring-loaded screws, can be made out of the precise material that will meet our customers’ production needs. The materials deployed across the different environments encountered in an airframe are key to ensuring the safety and robustness of the airframe during its life cycle. Our commitment to quality and safety includes working closely with our customers to give advice and support with respect to which materials will stand up to the environmental stresses that will be present, including humidity, UV and extremes of temperature.
Quality Standards at FTC
At Fastener Technology Corp. we understand the importance of safety and we ensure this is central to our production values, meaning that our customers can have full confidence in our products. This includes having AS9100 and ISO9001 accreditations.
