  • Advanced Surface Treatments: Automotive-grade Geomet, Dacromet, PTFE coatings, and specialized zinc-nickel plating.

From print to dock: our 5-step drawing-to-delivery process

Our structured procurement workflow ensures design accuracy, tooling feasibility, and metallurgical compliance at every phase:

01

Drawing Submission

Customer submits 2D prints (PDF/DWG) or 3D CAD files (STEP) detailing tolerances, material grade, hardness, and required batch quantity.

02

Engineering Review

Our technical team evaluates manufacturability, confirms in-house vs partner routing, tooling costs, and issues a firm commercial quote within 24 hours.

03

Tooling & Sampling

For custom forged heads, dies and punches are fabricated. First-article prototype samples are inspected and submitted for customer dimensional sign-off.

04

Batch Production

Full-run manufacturing begins: cold heading or precision machining, thread rolling, controlled heat treatment, and surface protective plating.

05

Quality & Dispatch

Final dimensional inspection, hardness checks, EN 10204 3.1 MTC verification, lot-tagged crate packaging, and doorstep logistics dispatch.

Intellectual property protection & drawing confidentiality

Strict Drawing Confidentiality & Mutual NDA

We understand that custom fastener drawings contain proprietary engineering geometry, patented thread combinations, and trade secrets. We maintain strict IP safeguards:

  • • Mutual NDA Available: We execute mutual non-disclosure agreements prior to reviewing proprietary drawings upon customer request.
  • • Controlled Sourcing Dissemination: Drawings are shared only with the dedicated technical quoting team and the audited production mill fabricating the part.
  • • No Public Portfolio Usage: Customer drawings, CAD files, and client part numbers are never published on our website or marketing literature without written authorization.
  • • Legal Protections: All customer-submitted drawings remain the 100% intellectual property of the purchasing client under our terms of supply (IP and confidentiality).

Transparent Boundary Exclusions (When We Decline Work)

Trust is built on knowing what a supplier will NOT do. We decline inquiries outside our verified competency envelope:

  • • Aerospace Flight-Critical Hardware: We do not quote AS9100 flight-critical aerospace fasteners or export-controlled defense ordnance components.
  • • Medical Device Fasteners: We decline implantable surgical fasteners or Class II/III medical hardware requiring cleanroom passivation.
  • • Nuclear Primary Circuit Fasteners: We do not supply ASME Section III nuclear primary containment pressure vessel hardware.
  • • Automotive PPAP Level 3 Without Audit: Full automotive PPAP Level 3 documentation packages are accepted only where annual volume and audit agreements are established in advance.

Frequently asked questions: custom fasteners & drawing sourcing

Detailed engineering answers regarding CAD formats, tolerance limits, tooling costs, MTC documentation, and production scheduling.

Do you make custom fasteners in-house or source them through partners?
KP Fasteners operates a transparent dual-capability model: straightforward threaded components, foundation anchor bolts, double-ended studs, sag rods, and non-standard length turned parts within our machine envelope are manufactured directly in our Ahmedabad plant. Complex multi-station cold-headed specials, non-standard forged bolt geometries, and specialized non-ferrous alloys outside our machine window are sourced through vetted primary partner mills with full EN 10204 3.1 MTC traceability and our dispatch lot verification.
What drawing formats and engineering details are required to quote?
We accept 2D drawings in PDF, DWG, or DXF formats, as well as 3D solid models in STEP or IGES format. To provide a firm commercial quotation, your drawing should state nominal thread dimensions and pitch, tolerance class (e.g. 6g / 6H), base material specification and heat-treat hardness, surface finish coating, part markings, batch quantity, and delivery site pin code.
What is your minimum order quantity (MOQ) and production lead time?
For custom threaded studs and foundation anchor rods produced in-house, minimum orders start from flexible project batches (50-100 pieces). For partner-sourced cold-headed or forged specials requiring dedicated tooling setup, the standard MOQ is 500 kg per SKU. Typical lead time is 10-21 business days for in-network tooling recipes and 4-8 weeks when dedicated forging dies or punch tooling must be fabricated.
How do you protect customer intellectual property and drawing confidentiality?
All customer-supplied engineering prints, CAD geometry, and proprietary application data are treated as strictly confidential. On request, we execute a mutual Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) prior to receiving drawings. Customer drawings are never shared beyond the specific technical production personnel and dedicated partner mills quoting the physical part, and client prints remain 100% the property of the purchasing customer.
Will I receive mill test certification (MTC) and dimensional inspection reports?
Yes. Every custom fastener production lot is accompanied by a certified inspection report including dimensional verification, surface coating thickness, core hardness (Rockwell HRC or Brinell HBW), and an EN 10204 3.1 Mill Test Certificate verifying the ladle melt chemical analysis and mechanical proof loads. Third-party NABL laboratory witness testing is available on request.
