What Are Fastners?
Fasteners are hardware devices used to join or secure two or more objects together. They play a crucial role in various industries, construction, automotive, and household applications.
Fasteners come in a wide range of sizes, shapes, materials, and configurations to accommodate different requirements.
Typically, fasteners form a non-permanent joint. In other words, when you use a fastener to connect two components, you can remove it, and the separate pieces should come apart without suffering any damage.
The same wouldn’t be the case with a welded joint, for instance. The one exception to this rule are rivets, which fall under the category of fasteners, but create permanent joints.
