How does our certified aircraft hardware fit into the racing industry?

Where and how do the aircraft certified (AN-MS-NAS) hardware components we distribute fit into the racing industry? With the ever increasing performance demands, sophistication and cost of today's competition vehicles comes the need for fasteners that offer the very highest strength and quality. Many of today's racing vehicles place the same severe demands for performance and reliability on their components as do military and commercial aircraft, with similar potential penalties for failure. The FAA and U.S. military services allow no SAE "graded" fasteners of any description to be installed on military or commercial aircraft. Racing vehicle components subjected to similar demands should also be equipped with the best hardware obtainable.

Our Quality Guarantee

You can be certain that all hardware and fasteners purchased from Coast Fabrication and our authorized agents will always be of the very highest quality. We do not sell any "commercial or industrial grade" hardware, and the manufacturers whose products we distribute (Alcoa/Fairchild, MRC, Ravtech, Magseal, NHBB, Thomas & Betts) are acknowledged within the aerospace industry as the leading producers of their respective lines. Our familiarity with, and coverage of, aircraft and aerospace hardware enables us to recommend and supply a threaded fastener for almost any chassis-related application. Customized and modified items can also be produced to meet your individual needs or specifications.
