subject: The Use Of Metric Fasteners - Bolts And Nuts - To Various Industries [print this page] Let us start discussing this resource by posting this mind-stimulating threshold question: Why is that metric fasteners are popular in the market these days? And why is it that many segments in the industry choose 'metric' over other system unit measurements?
The main reason is pretty simple why metric fasteners have been so popular in the market - because they are needed by industries that have been rapidly growing in the global scale. And why 'metric' fasteners are now preferred over the other measurement units such as 'imperial unit'? It is simply because metric measurement has become the stardard in the industry.
Metric bolts and nuts, for example, are used in a number of manufacturing and construction industries with several application trends. These include the following:
Automobile industry - metric bolts and nuts are used to serve the vast sector of the automobile industry. They play a key role for manufacturing as they are known for durability and strength, which is needed for making cars with excellent quality.
Aerospace - apart from the automobile industry, the aerospace industry is another sector that has been benefiting from using metric fasteners as a key component for manufacturing. Particularly, they are used for assembly and parts integration of aircraft as well as spacecrafts - both government and commercial uses. Other aerospace applications for these fasteners include satellites and for International Space Station.
Construction - high rise buildings have components that also need the use of metric fasteners, bolts and nuts and this is why the construction is another segment of the industry that is considered as a major market formetric fastener distributors and manufacturers. Aside from building constructions, there are also metric fasteners that are specifically engineered for construction of bridges and other public structures such as transportation facilities (e.g. train stations, subways, etc.)
Agricultural machinery - the agricultural or farming sector is using metric fasteners for farm machinery assembly, including customization of tractor components or elements, assembly and disassembly of steering wheel for repair and maintenance.
Appliances - even the ordinary appliances we see in our home - televisions, component - are some examples where fasteners have taken an important used.
So, there we go... I have just provided you a few of industry segments where the application of metric fasteners has become a trend. And they are making the metric fastener manufacturing and distribution sectors as one of the busiest and thriving industries.
