TRANSPORTATION
Omni sources and stocks products for Tier One and Tier Two transportation manufacturers for heavy-duty applications. We also create custom parts for manufacturers to improve efficiency and reduce installation errors. We have partnered with a locomotive manufacturer to create a unique component that is assembled by hand in our warehouse, engine parts for heavy-duty earth movers used in mining applications, and sources parts used in aircraft wheel and braking systems as well as guard rails on highways around the country.
Solutions and Services
- Ability to source standard and non-standard high-strength materials and products from prototype to production volumes
- Sourcing high-strength materials including alloy steel, carbon steel, and stainless steel for heavy-duty applications
- Corrosion-resistant materials for marine and automotive applications including coatings like hot-dip galvanizing, PTFE, or zinc plating
- Aerospace-grade materials like titanium, Inconel, and more for superior strength-to-weight ratios
- Vibration Resistant materials like self-locking nuts, adhesives, and specialized bolts for vehicle and aircraft applications
- Engagement with customers and engineers during new product introduction processes to advise most cost-effective solutions that meet their quality and safety need
- Ability to supply items per-print or customer drawing’s specifications
Products
- Fasteners or hardware (nuts, bolts, screws, rivets, washers, studs, pins, collars, eyelets, collars), O-rings, gaskets, clamps, fabrication, hinges, identification labels and stickers, retaining rings, seals, shims, and springs
- We offer metric and imperial products that meet standard specs such as ASTM, ANSI, DIN, ISO, and ASME
- Ability to supply exotic ferrous and non-ferrous materials
- Common materials supplied include carbon steel, alloy steel, aluminum, brass, copper, plastics, Hastalloy, Nema G, Nylon, stainless steel, Inconel, Monel and Titanium
- We offer a variety of material surface finishes including barrel and rack electro platting (nickel, tin, copper, cadmium, zinc trivalent and hexavalent), chemical treatments (black oxide, passivation, phosphate, anodizing, wax/lube), electroless nickel, electropolish, mechanically deposited zinc and galvanizing, spray coating (Teflon, Geomet, Magni, Xylan, WS2) and hydrogen embrittlement relief
- Other secondary processes we offer include heat treatment (induction, case, and through hardening), grinding (outer diameter, inner diameter, and Blanchard), thread rolling, and locking features (Nylon patch, pellet, and strip)
- We partner with external labs for destructive (tensile, hardness, elongation, proof load) and nondestructive testing (magnetic particle)
Transportation Product Applications
- Bolts and Nuts: Heavy-duty bolts and nuts are used in the assembly of vehicles, including automotive, aerospace, marine, and rail applications. 12-point bolts are used for engine components, chassis, and structural elements.
- Screws: Various types of screws are used in transportation applications, including self-tapping screws, machine screws, and wood screws for securing panels, interior components, and electrical systems.
- Lock Washers: Lock washers help prevent loosening of fasteners due to vibration and shock loads in transportation equipment
- Wheel Bolts and Studs: These are used to secure wheels to vehicles in automotive, trucking, and aerospace applications.
