The automotive world is full of unique fasteners, developed for special applications. Tapping into this library of hardware can be a great way to elevate your projects, whether they are auto related or not. Because these specialty fasteners are less common than standard fasteners, many people aren’t familiar with them (or even realize they exist).

Heat Wave. Deep Heat. Heat of the Night. While heat might be a good thing to sing about in a rock and roll song, it’s something to be avoided in most metalworking operations, especially sheet metal laser cutting. That’s because, as with many things in life, too much of it can be a bad thing.

If you’re like us here at SendCutSend, you love science experiments. So before you click off to some other page in search of advice on laser-cut sheet metal parts, go find some aluminum—a frying pan, will do, or maybe an old MacBook Pro. Now grab a butter knife and drag it across the bottom. See

Precision sheet metal bending is one of our many high quality machining and manufacturing services here at SendCutSend. With some CNC magic, your 2D sheet metal part can transform into a 3D part in a matter of seconds. This is valuable for many applications: mounting brackets, suspension mounts, battery boxes, and other components that need

Laser cutting is perfect for complex projects that require precision, but there are a few key design considerations you will want to keep in mind to ensure the perfect result. Designing a part properly for laser cutting will also help cut down any manufacturing questions, which can be important if you are on a tight

Many makers decide they want to weld their own laser cut and waterjet cut parts. This decision can be a daunting one; the upfront costs can be high depending on what equipment you choose, and there’s a definite learning curve, especially if you decide to jump into TIG welding. So we’ve put together some of

G10 is one of our newest materials. In this article, we break down G10, what it is, its strengths and weaknesses and the best application use for this material. What Is G10? It is a composite/laminate made of a woven fiberglass cloth compressed under high pressure within a cured electrical grade epoxy resin. The number

Internal view of rack and pinion actuator (UniTorq) Rack & Pinion actuators are designed for operating quarter-turn valves such as butterfly, plug, and ball valves or for actuating industrial or commercial dampers. The rotational movement of a rack and pinion actuator is accomplished via linear motion and two gears. A circular gear, referred to a
