Stock Standard Fasteners

Seastrom manufactures and stocks the largest quantity of precision fasteners in the industry. Over 44,000 part numbers equating to over 158 million parts. This inventory gives our customers’ options when buying standard and specialty hardware. If we do not have exactly what you need, we may have an equivalent part close enough in size, thickness, material or plating to meet your needs. All Seastrom standard parts are listed online with their price, stock and delivery for ease of use. Online ordering is also available. If a pricing is not available an email quote request is provided for our customer’s convenience.

Standard Part Modifications

Seastrom’s large tool and die department enables us to easily modify our standard tooling to accomodate basic standard part modifications. This enables our customers to avoid costly custom tooling when their specification is close to one of our standards (ie. modifications in length, width, number of holes, etc.)

Custom Products

Custom products are a specialty of Seastrom Manufacturing. As a full service manufacturer and we can help our customers save time and money on a custom product beginning with the design process. Seastrom has multiple methods of manufacturing (ie. Stamping, CNC, Screw Machine, Four Slide) which translates into a vast amount of knowledge that our customers can draw upon. Our in-house engineering departments can work with our customers’ engineers to recommend manufacturing methods, materials, tolerances, and configurations that are possible in each method of manufacturing. All our engineering department requires are quantities, target pricing and the ability to view the whole assembly. If you don’t have the capability to make a schematic, they can do that for you, as well as reverse-engineer an existing part that you don’t have dimensions for. As the project develops, quotes can be given on the parts to make sure you stay within your price point. Projects can consist of only one part, or as many as you require.
