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 (#4 diameter) machine screws to 3/8 diameter bolts used in steam boilers.
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.
As we move into the 21st century, A.J. Fasteners will continue to identify new opportunities that will enable it to increase its sales as well as insure it’s current recognition in the marketplace.
