As a result of the conflict in the Middle East and following recent attacks on shipping container freight in the Red Sea, heading for the Suez Canal, we are seeing impacts on the delivery of fasteners and fixings from the Far East (where most fasteners are manufactured).

As the screw cools, the molten zinc hardens, thereby forming a shell on the screw’s exterior. Fasteners are typically made of metals and alloys ..read more
