COST SAVING SOLUTIONS

PeopleOnly 15% of the total "in-place cost" of fastening is the cost of the screw or bolt. The TAPTITE family of thread rolling screws and bolts lower the remaining 85% cost. i.e. the cost of pre-tapping the hole and other tapping related costs. We refer to this cost as the "Big 85" The use of TAPTITE® products lowers the "Big 85"!
