Mechanically attached fasteners from PROFIL\u00ae <\/sup>are the superior performing alternative to welding \u2013 proven to streamline your manufacturing process and improve quality and reliability. Our unique, single-step installation makes PROFIL\u00ae fasteners the ideal choice for in-line roll forming applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Eliminate Costly Secondary Operations<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

PROFIL\u00ae mechanically attached fasteners eliminate secondary operations that are required by traditional processes such as welding. With no need for pre-piercing and no need for multiple insertion passes, cost savings is achieved. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Increase Throughput and Improve Quality<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to cost savings, throughput is increased by removing secondary operations. And with no weld splatter to contend with, manufacturing quality is also improved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Achieve Finished Product Completely In-Line Roll Forming<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

For in-line roll forming applications, PROFIL\u00ae\u00a0MAFs are particularly cost-effective for high-volume production. Fully automated placement enables fast cycle time with strict tolerances, and installation of one or several fasteners is possible during the roll-forming process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
