108 THE DISTRIBUTOR’S

108 THE DISTRIBUTOR’S LINK ZaGO MANUFACTURING INC. 21 East Runyon Street, Newark, NJ 07114 TEL 973-643-6700 FAX 973-643-4433 EMAIL info@ZaGO.com WEB www.ZaGO.com GREAT QUALITY SUPPORTED BY RIGOROUS TESTING & CERTIFICATION All fasteners are NOT created equal, especially in today’s global market where the propensity for counterfeit product seems to be taking center stage more and more. This is easily evidenced from recent findings by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s Office of Defects. They compiled a list of suspect fasteners in an effort to eliminate the use of substandard bolts by vehicle and component manufacturers. Counterfeit and substandard bolts have been implicated in a number of vehicle accidents resulting in recalls by several heavy truck manufacturers. *(2011 Choice Distribution report). It’s incidents like these that have resulted in an increased interest in the certifications and testing of fasteners. Heeding the call for such rigorous testing is US made ZaGO fasteners, a leader in the Sealing Fastener industry. Standard operating procedure at ZaGO requires every part to be thoroughly tested with documented proof to support it. Documentation is provided in three categories: chain of custody, certifications and test reports. ZaGO can certify compliance with REACH, ROHS and ROHS II which are becoming standard requirements for products sold globally. When it comes to testing, ZaGO is the only seal fastener company offering pressure testing reports for NASM82496. They also offer third party batch test reports for silicone and fluorosilicone rubber o-rings, tensile and strength reports, full raw material metallurgical testing and chemical analysis, torque testing, salt spray, hydrogen imbrittlement and magnetic fluorescent inspection. In today’s highly competitive and demanding world of manufacturing, OEM’s can’t take the risk of using inferior fasteners no matter what the product requirements. It’s no wonder so many are now turning to ZaGO US-made parts when only the best will do.
