Q: I’m designing laboratory equipment that will be utilized at 325-400F and I need screws that have immunity to organics and low concentrations of acids, as well be FDA approved. Would that be a ceramic? A: You probably don’t want a ceramic screw. Though they are corrosion resistant and offer … Continue reading
Q: I am looking for a suitable fastener for use in a high heat furnace that is running at 2000F but the actual hearth wear flames go up to 3000F. The furnace is not under vacuum and has a normal atmosphere. We are finding that the 304 bolts are failing … Continue reading
They rhyme, are both used in extreme environments, and are both nickel metal alloys, but Monel and Inconel are actually very different. But how? Let’s start with basic chemistry. Monel is a nickel-copper alloy and Inconel is a nickel-chromium alloy. So what does that mean for your extreme application? We … Continue reading

NASA has been designing rockets and manned space ships for over 50 years, but nothing like the innovation needed to build a light-speed, fighter spacecraft. At Extreme Bolt, we supply the aviation industry with a diversity of fasteners made from extreme materials. Though Star Wars is a fictitious story, it … Continue reading
Vacuum furnaces offer engineers a unique processing environment: high temperatures, controlled atmospheres, and rapid cooling. This low contamination environment is perfect for brazing, sintering, and heat treatment. Due to the constant extreme temperatures (typically 1,100–1,500°C), choosing the right fastener material can be a challenge. This brief paper will give you an overview on what high … Continue reading
Q: Polyimide / Vespel fasteners and their high temperature capabilities A: This client is developing a new oven application and was interested in Polyimide fasteners and their high temperature capabilities. In particular they needed:
