What is Fasteners?

Fasteners are universal components, hardware devices that are used for non-permanent joining of two or more objects together.There are many materials that are used for manufacturing the fasteners. Such as carbon steel, alloy steel, stainless steel, aluminum and plastic. Common fasteners include screws, bolts, nuts and rivets.
