Our TwinDisk fasteners have been developed to provide high tensile and torque values when fixing to sandwich and honeycomb panels. They offer a secure, neat fixing that is bonded to panel skin, and because they are inserted from one side only, the panels are not weakened by drilling through both skins. TwinDisks can be manufactured to suit almost any panel thickness, and come in both male and female variations. They are the perfect solution for when you need a strong fixing to walls, floors or cladding.

Poppit is a simple and discrete panel fastener which saves time when fixing panels. Bonded to the back of the panel, Poppit remains hidden from view, while its unique design allows panels to be installed, demounted and remounted with perfect alignment every time. A number of sizes are available to match panel weights and sizes, and they can also be used together with most adhesives. Poppits are made from steel and high density polycarbonate, allowing them to withstand 1000's of cycles without failure.

Our bigHead fasteners were originally invented back in 1966 to solve a fastening problem that most other traditional designs could not; how to achieve an efficient, secure fastening in a composite material. The unique design of the bigHead fastener has been the preferred method of fastening composites ever since. Today, designers and manufacturers continue to enhance their product's performance and simplify the final assembly by incorporating our excellent bigHead fasteners. If you'd like to see how some of our customers have used bigHeads with composites, why not take a look at our case studies page?

Highly efficient, aesthetically discrete and exceptionally secure, bigHead fasteners are the perfect solution for fixing interior panels, moulded panels, exterior cladding, light clusters, seating, anchor points, and a whole host of other applications. Pre-setting bigHeads into panels also significantly reduces the time it takes to assemble on-site, while tests have shown that they can withstand very high loads.

Our bigHead fasteners are the perfect solution for a wide range of marine applications, and are the fixing of choice for many prestigious boat builders, including Sunseeker Yachts, Laser, and RNLI. Efficient, discrete and secure, these fasteners have been used for cabin panels, interior furnishings, engine room insulation, deck fixings, light clusters, and much more. Because they are manufactured from 316 grade stainless steel, bigHeads are ideal as high load-bearing fixings to GRP, carbon fibre, and other composites. They are particularly capable of withstanding even the most severe marine environments.
We're more than happy to work with designers from the early design phases to the final boat assembly in order to achieve the best engineered solutions.
