April 2016 News

RS Components has added over 800 new lines to its RS Pro range of high-quality fasteners, fixings and ironmongery, giving engineers a choice of nearly 9000 products for general and high-performance applications in mechanical engineering and construction industries.

The new introductions extend the range of RS Pro zinc-plated and stainless steel machine screws to address almost every industrial context, from general machine building, main-tenance and repair and installation to specialist applications such as marine equipment manufacturing. A wide range of sizes and head types are available, in a choice of economical zinc-plated steel or 304 and 316 stainless steel for applications that require higher corrosion resistance.

In addition, RS has further expanded its range of steel and stainless steel socket screws to offer one of the broadest selections of any supplier. The screws are suitable for virtually any indoor or outdoor applications that require high reliability, durability and ruggedness.

By also boosting its selection of masonry fixings, including hook and eye bolts, sleeve anchors and through bolts in high-grade materials and a wide range of sizes, RS has strengthened its offer for the construction sector.

In addition to its RS Pro range, RS offers industrial fasteners and fixings from many recognised brands including Fischer Fixings, Rawlplug, Heico, Holo-Krome, JCS Hi-Torque, and Jubilee.
