Shipbuilding Industry Fasteners – Adfast Components
The shipbuilding industry involves constructing and dismantling commercial liners, cruises, freighters, and luxury boats. Due to the harsh seawater environment, vessel construction requires marine-grade materials to ensure strength and corrosion resistance.
At Adfast Components, we manufacture high-quality marine-grade fasteners designed to withstand various challenges, including general corrosion, hydrogen-induced corrosion, sulphide stress cracking, galvanic corrosion, pitting, cavitation, and microbial attack.
Our marine fasteners are produced with precision using carefully selected materials and are often supplied with protective coatings like PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) for enhanced durability. Common grades used in shipbuilding include PTFE Coated B7/2H, Grade 8.8, 10.9, 12.9, F593, F594, Alloy 20, Inconel 718, and ASTM A453 Grade 660.
