Sherex Fastening Solutions' Optisert, widely recognized as the top-performing round body rivet nut in the industry, has just been honored with the prestigious title of a 2023 Fastener Innovation Award winner by WorldwideFastenerSources.com. This accolade underscores the rivet nut's exceptional performance, particularly in resisting spin-out—a critical factor for many applications.
The Optisert's groundbreaking design combines an engineered knurled body with a unique underhead wedge pattern, which works together to provide superior gripping strength in softer materials such as aluminum, plastics, and composites. This innovative feature allows the Optisert to match the performance of a full hex body rivet nut in these delicate materials. As Mike McGuire, president of WorldwideFastenerSources.com, noted in the official announcement, the Fastener Innovation Awards celebrate "the people and companies who inspire Research & Development within the fastener industry."
This latest recognition marks the second time Optisert has received industry acclaim, having previously been a finalist at the Route to Fastener Innovation 2023. The journey to perfecting the Optisert involved over seven years of rigorous research and development. During this period, countless tests were conducted to ensure the rivet nut could deliver consistent performance and reliability in softer materials—a testament to Sherex's commitment to quality and innovation.
As stated in the award release, "A driving force in the evaluation process is that the fasteners be innovative in today's assemblies and will set the standard for future designs." Sherex shares this vision and continues to push boundaries, ensuring their products remain at the forefront of technological advancement. With more innovations on the horizon, it seems likely that Sherex will continue to receive well-deserved recognition in the fastener industry.
