While our customer base has expanded to include Fortune
500 companies, our original goal of service has never
changed. Our fasteners can be found on the hot &
cold faucets in your bathroom to the wheel spokes
of a Harley-Davison motorcycle, from closet shelving
to the distributor cap of a ’57 Chevy. We specialize
in production runs of engineered fasteners for original
equipment manufactures.
Over the years, A.J. Fasteners has expanded to meet
our customer’s requirements. We provide stampings,
springs, electronic hardware, kiting, bar coding,
packaging, and VMI to name a few. We excel in many
secondary operations such as grinding and assembly.
A.J. Fasteners has partnered with manufactures overseas
in order to provide cost effective OEM components
to meet a global economy.
Our sales and engineering staff has the experience
to assist in the developmental stages of the entrepreneur
to working with the complex engineering solutions
of major companies. With the same vision that foresaw
the need for, just in time; vendor managed inventory,
bar coding, auto cad,100% inspection and many other
innovations to the fastener industry, Joe Aiello brought
Larry Roa on board in 1988 to learn the A.J. Fastener’s
way. This transition was finalized in 1999, when Larry
Roa purchased the remaining stock of A.J. Fasteners.
A.J.
Fasteners was founded in 1974 as a fastener distributor
specializing in the builder’s hardware industry.
Our first priority was service and remains true today.
During the first couple of years, due to shortages and
unreliable delivery from overseas, it became apparent
that we should return to our original love, manufacturing.
Initially A.J. Fasteners started with two cold headers
and one thread roller. Today, we have over 20 headers
and 10 rollers, capable of manufacturing small (#4diameter)
machine screws to 3/8 diameter bolts used in steam boilers.
