The Right Fasteners for Your Shop

Fasteners are a vital part of most industrial shops, but with many variables involved, it’s critical to make sure you have the right ones on hand for your operational needs.

With so many sizes and other specifications, buying fasteners in a piecemeal way is simply a recipe for disaster. It leaves your shop vulnerable to running out of needed inventory, or – even worse – confusion about what fasteners you have and which ones are right for the job.

Kimball Midwest offers a huge selection of fasteners. To make sure you have the coverage you need, we recommend reviewing our selection of Shop Setups, which are designed to include essential products you need for a variety of tasks. They provide all necessary storage equipment to keep your shop organized at a discounted price, and they are billed as one item for ease.

For example, our KM-USA Grade 8 Shop Setup comes with more than 1,900 Grade 8 cap screws, plus a variety of related screws, nuts, washers, pins and rings, as well as the storage equipment for the whole package.

If you don’t need the strength of Grade 8, our Grade 5 Fastener Setup gives you comprehensive coverage for medium-strength applications. It includes nearly 2,800 cap screws, along with an impressive array of related products and storage equipment.

We also have Shop Setups focused on metric 10.9, metric 8.8 and stainless steel cap screws.

If you need a smaller inventory of metric 10.9, metric 8.8 or stainless steel cap screws in addition to a larger setup, don’t miss our new Bolt-On sets, which provide additional coverage for those product areas. They’re designed to pair with other setups to ensure you have the product you need to meet all repair needs.
