HEROSLAM licensed for TAPTITE® line 31 October 2013

HEROSLAM SAL has recently received the worldwide license for the TRILOBULAR™ family of thread rolling tools for the production of TAPTITE® line of fasteners.

This license, granted by CONTI Fasteners AG, enables HEROSLAM to manufacture and market the whole family of TRILOBULAR™ thread rolling dies including TAPTITE®, DUO-TAPTITE®, TAPTITE II®, TAPTITE 2000®, PLASTITE®, POWERLOK®, and FASTITE 2000® dies.

With this license, HEROSLAM becomes one of the few manufacturers of thread rolling dies worldwide that is able to offer its thread rolling solutions for the production of TRILOBULAR™ licensed fasteners.

Besides CONTI’s recognition of HEROSLAM’s technical capabilities and tooling quality, this license gives HEROSLAM the possibility to approach an important market niche that the Basque company could not approach before. Thus, HEROSLAM enhaces its licensed tool portfolio, adding the TRILOBULAR™ line of tools to the existing MAThread® and MATpoint® licensed tools.

Alberto Gabika, managing director of HEROSLAM, says: “Our customers, who were already very satisfied with the quality and tool life that our thread rolling tools provide, were demanding TRILOBULAR™ thread rolling tools from us for the production of TAPTITE® and similar fasteners and we did not want to disappoint them. We have made a great effort to obtain this license and we are pleased to announce that we have achieved our goal. We invite all our customers with a TRILOBULAR™ license to contact us for further information.”
