Star Fasteners – solutions for demanding applications
01/09/2011 | Channel: Rolling Stock, New Products & Services
Star Fasteners (UK) Ltd has become a leading specialist in the fastener market and through successive years of growth has become the UK’s largest distributor of Huck® fasteners.
Huck® Fasteners are found in every tough engineering situation. Railcars, railway tracks, rolling stock, aerospace, trucks and trailers, bridge construction, cars and mining/quarrying. In fact anywhere that fastener failure is not an option. Huck® fasteners have been designed to cope with extreme stress and vibration, providing strength and facilitating lighter, stronger, more durable structures.
The heavy-duty tamper-resistant fasteners are used wherever high structural strength and resistance to vibration and loosening are required. For example bogies, chassis coupling mechanisms, cabs, sidewalls to chassis and sidewalls to roofs. The blind self-locking range is popular for installation on air-conditioning units, door and window frames, luggage shelves, front and rear panels and brackets; however the installation possibilities are endless.
Star Fasteners is proud to announce the next step in Lockbolt evolution. The new Bobtail® fastener combines rugged installation tools with a precisely engineered fastener range to deliver superior value and performance. The Bobtail® installs in only two seconds, up to twice as fast as any other large diameter Lockbolt on the market. Bobtail® has the benefit of no pin-tail or pin-break; this reduces material waste, has low installation noise, no pin-break shock and therefore increases its corrosion resistance.
Star has evolved over twenty years to meet the changing needs of the market. We now stock an ever-wider range of products in response to our customers increasing demands. These include rivets, threaded inserts, weld and self-clinch studs, screws, insert bits and holders and rivet bushes. We adapt to our customers’ needs and have the knowledge and experience to offer our customers a combination of reliable service, technical help and support, quality products, delivered on time, on budget and without compromise.
Our service includes the supply, hire and maintenance of a range of hand, hydraulic and pneumatic installation equipment. Customers receive a quick, reliable and competitive repair service; excellent ranges of tooling spares are stocked as standard. We can become an integral part of the customer’s service and maintenance system.
Star Fasteners’ philosophy is based on principles of quality, service and continuous improvement; this has enabled us to achieve accreditation to BS ISO9001: 2008. Our documentation and data are controlled within a dedicated software system. The stocking and distribution of industrial fasteners supplied from quality assured sources ensures that our demands for quality are met and that full traceability is given.
