BUMAX® products are the ideal fastener choice for high-tech manufacturing industries (e.g. semiconductor manufacturing, medical engineering, electronics, avionics and communications technologies). BUMAX fastener products deliver high performance for critical fastening applications. Advantages of BUMAX fasteners include strength, ductility and accurate pre-load/clamp force capabilities, low magnetic permeability, low material impurities and highly consistent products.
Our offering
BUMAX’s standard stock product ranges offer customers in high-tech manufacturing sectors a significant step up from generic commodity fasteners. Such types of product can vary significantly in performance and quality from one order to the next and often lack any traceability and certification. BUMAX standard stock products overcome all this and more, as well as the ability to offer customised solutions, where customer requirements are even more stringent.
Delivering customer value
High Strength– ensures the possibility of high clamping forces for reliable joint integrity
Installation Accuracy– the high quality and consistency BUMAX fasteners ensures stable friction coefficients, accurate pre-loads and high levels of installation accuracy. This can be especially advantageous where automated installation is involved.
Low Risk of Galling – BUMAX products have very low risk of galling. However, for even greater reliability, then additional surface treatments and coatings are available.
Low-magnetic permeability – some BUMAX fastener grades benefit from very low levels of magnetic permeability. This ensures they do not interfere with magnetic fields or impact with sensors and other electronic components.
Low-cobalt content – material compositions to avoid emitting gamma rays and creating harmful radioactive isotopes.
Customized solutions – BUMAX can offer technical assistance to help deliver stainless steel fasteners according to customer unique requirements. This can include additional special surface treatments and customised design options.
Clean solutions – some applications require very clean product, with low levels of particle emissions and risk of outgassing. Special surface treatments, additional cleaning operations, cleanroom packaging, along with documentation, mean that the highest levels of product quality and customer application integrity can be maintained.
Certified materials – BUMAX products are exclusively European material & manufacture and available with optional 3.1 full product test certification on all products.
High Consistency– BUMAX products are produced to exceptional quality standards, very reliable and highly consistent in their performance. For applications where high accuracy is important, then BUMAX offers a way to reduce variability in performance, in ongoing serial production.
