Maintenance, repair, and operations (MRO) is a market that historically has been reticent to change processes and adopt new practices. This is especially true when it comes to mechanical fasteners, and understandably so, as nuts and bolts have been relied upon for centuries to ensure the cogs of industry continue to turn safely, efficiently, and without breaking down.
While not all centuries old, MRO engineers now work and use mechanical fasteners across a vast cross section of industry, from general manufacturing and mining to food production, the automotive aftermarket, aerospace, and utilities. You’ll find MRO engineers wherever machinery, hydraulics, engines, turbines, and compressors are used and need to be maintained.
