Ordering custom fasteners does not have to be complicated. At HETAI, we manufacture custom and non-standard fasteners based on customer drawings, samples, specifications, or specific application requirements. Whether you need a custom bolt, nut, screw, stud, pin, or another specially designed fastening component, our engineering team can help turn your requirements into a production-ready product.

Here is the typical process for ordering custom fasteners from HETAI.

1. Send HETAI Your Drawing or Sample

The first step is to provide us with as much product information as possible. The most useful information is a technical drawing or 3D CAD file showing dimensions, tolerances, thread specifications, material, surface finish, and other requirements.

If you do not have a drawing, that is not a problem. You can send HETAI a physical sample, photographs, measurements, or an existing product. Our engineers can evaluate the sample and help develop the necessary manufacturing specifications.

2. Provide Your Technical Requirements

Different applications require different fastener properties. When requesting a quotation, please provide information such as material, size, thread type, strength grade, hardness, surface treatment, corrosion resistance, and dimensional tolerances whenever these specifications are known.

It is also helpful to tell us how the custom fastener will be used. Application information can help HETAI recommend an appropriate material and manufacturing process when the original specifications are incomplete.

3. HETAI Reviews the Design

After receiving your information, our engineering team reviews the design for manufacturability, dimensions, tolerances, materials, and production processes.

Depending on the product, manufacturing may involve cold heading, CNC machining, CNC turning, drilling, tapping, milling, thread rolling, thread cutting, grinding, or other secondary operations.

If we identify any potential manufacturing issue, we will communicate with you before production and recommend a suitable solution.

4. Receive a Quotation

Once the technical requirements are clear, HETAI can prepare a quotation based on factors such as product specifications, material, manufacturing process, quantity, tooling requirements, surface treatment, packaging, and delivery requirements.

For custom products, the quotation may also include tooling or prototype costs when applicable.

5. Approve the Sample or First Article

For new or highly customized products, HETAI may recommend producing a prototype or First Article before mass production. This allows you to verify the dimensions, appearance, material, functionality, and other important requirements.

Any necessary modifications can be discussed and confirmed before full production begins.

6. Start Mass Production

After the design and sample are approved, HETAI begins production according to the confirmed specifications. Our manufacturing and quality-control processes are designed to maintain consistent dimensions and performance throughout the production run.

We can also arrange inspection and quality documentation according to the customer’s requirements.

7. Inspection, Packaging, and Delivery

Before shipment, the finished custom fasteners can be inspected according to the agreed quality requirements. Products are then properly packaged to protect them during transportation.

HETAI works with customers to coordinate packaging and delivery requirements for both small custom orders and larger production quantities.
