Fastener Performance & Reliability Solutions
Forest City Technologies helps OEMs, fastener manufacturers, and product teams improve the way fasteners perform in demanding applications. From thread locking and sealing to torque control, protective coatings, assembly aids, and vision inspection, Forest City Technologies applies engineered material solutions that help reduce loosening, leakage, corrosion risk, installation variation, and quality escapes.
Engineered Solutions for Critical Fastener Challenges
Fasteners are small components with a large impact on product performance. When a fastener loosens, leaks, corrodes, installs inconsistently, or fails inspection, the result can be added cost, production delays, warranty exposure, and field reliability concerns.
Forest City Technologies supports customers with pre-applied coatings, sealants, lubricants, retention devices, protective materials, and automated inspection services that are matched to the fastener, substrate, joint design, installation environment, and performance requirement.
Thread Locking
Pre-applied thread locking materials help prevent loosening caused by vibration, thermal cycling, and repeated loading. Forest City Technologies applies engineered adhesives that support consistent installation, reliable retention, and improved joint performance.
Sealing
Fastener sealing solutions help protect joints from leaks, fluid exposure, contamination, and environmental intrusion. Forest City Technologies applies sealants to threads, bearing surfaces, clips, and related components to improve sealing performance and reduce assembly complexity.
Assembly Aids
Assembly aid solutions are designed to improve handling, retention, placement, and production efficiency. These technologies can help reduce loose hardware, simplify installation, and support more consistent assembly operations.
Protective Coatings
Protective coatings help improve fastener durability by reducing exposure-related risks such as galvanic corrosion, e-coat buildup, abrasion, and environmental attack. Forest City Technologies helps customers select and apply coating systems that align with the fastener material, finish, and application conditions.
Friction Control
Friction control coatings and lubricants help manage torque-tension relationships, reduce installation variability, and support more predictable clamp load. Forest City Technologies provides solutions for applications where controlled friction, reduced galling, and consistent assembly performance are critical.
Vision Inspection
High-speed vision inspection helps verify coating presence, location, coverage, and overall fastener quality before parts reach the customer. Forest City Technologies' inspection capabilities support process control, quality assurance, and reduced risk of nonconforming product.
