Steel forging: Bolting that endures extreme environments

While producing steel, for any of the material’s range of application areas, bolted joints need stay tight and maintain performance while exposed to corrosives, heavy vibrations, and extreme temperatures.

Any loosening will lead to unplanned maintenance and repairs, as well as costly delays in production. Our solutions, such as Nord Lock washers and Superbolt tensioners can be applied quickly and easily, and they stay secure. The benefits include improved safety, increased productivity, reduced maintenance, and longer life cycles. This is why they can be found in steelworks bolting applications across the globe.
