The Importance of Quality Fasteners for Glass Manufacturing

Manufacturing glass requires technical expertise to ensure quality, from melting and cooling to fabrication. For glass to be more efficient in its many applications, fasteners are necessary. Glass fasteners work by enhancing the integrity of the glass and ensuring safety in different uses.

Nickel Systems offers a wide range of high nickel alloy and stainless steel fasteners. Our products are ideal for their anti-corrosive property, which is one of the biggest factors in the industrial use of glass. Every product in our inventory is inspected meticulously to ensure quality and performance.

Types of Fasteners for Glass Manufacturing

Choosing the right fasteners is crucial considering the diverse possibilities of glass applications. Metal and stainless steel are two of the most popular types of fasteners for glass manufacturing.

  • Metal Coatings: Metal fasteners for glass manufacturing are typically coated with a special finish to make them corrosion-resistant.
  • Stainless steel: Stainless steel fasteners are the more cost-effective alternative to plated fasteners. They offer the same corrosion resistance and low-maintenance properties that are great for manufacturing processes.

Selecting the Best Fasteners for Your Needs

There are several factors to consider when choosing the best fasteners for glass manufacturing. These are:

  • Material: Different types of fasteners are ideal for different applications. When selecting fasteners, look at the primary composition. In glass manufacturing, stainless steel is among the most popular for its corrosion resistance. Molybdenum is also another great alternative for its low thermal expansion.
  • Finish: You’d also want to look at the finish because it contributes to the fastener’s corrosion resistance.
  • Load requirements: Due to the fragility of glass, it’s important to look at the tensile strength of the fastener. This prevents breakage or cracking in both the fastener and the glass during the manufacturing process.
  • Environmental conditions: Glass manufacturing involves high temperatures, so you’d want fasteners that can handle heat without altering quality.
