The construction industry is more than large machines, huge pieces of steel and thick lengths of wood. Construction materials and equipment have to be strong and able to operate at top efficiency. After all, they help build everything from bridges and towers to houses, garages and everything in between. Some of the most important construction materials are the fasteners that hold everything together – literally the nuts and bolts of the construction industry. Durable, high-quality stainless steel fasteners are vital to just about every phase of the construction industry, in a huge range of applications.

Copper State Bolt & Nut Company provides professionals with the finest grades of stainless steel fasteners – all of them featuring the corrosion-resistant properties that make stainless steel the material of choice when it comes to fasteners with high ductility properties. The experts at Copper State are committed to supplying all customers with the strongest bolts, nuts, washers, screws and pop rivets available – designed to meet and exceed the toughest performance requirements.

Advantages of stainless steel fasteners

As the construction industry has developed and expanded, the use of stainless steel has also increased exponentially. Their benefits over other traditional materials soon became widely recognized and used in all types of construction.

The advantages of using stainless steel fasteners in modern construction is well documented. Because stainless steel is a high-strength alloy, its lateral loading strength is at least 20% higher than that of carbon steel. In addition, the use of chromium forms a thin, tough and invisible chrome oxide film on the surface of stainless steel, which protects the fasteners from environmental corrosives such as humidity and acidity.

The advantages of using stainless steel fasteners in the construction industry include:

• Strength to withstand extreme conditions
• High resiliency
• Specific grades that feature non-magnetic properties
• Performs well in a wide range of temperatures
• Highly resistant to staining
• Unparalleled resistance to corrosion
• Aesthetic finish
• Recyclable
• Excellent long-term investment
