Fastener Manufacturer to Bring Heat Treat In-House

Located in Taylor, Michigan USA this is how B&D Cold Headed Products describes themselves; “B&D Thread Rolling, Inc. dba B&D Cold Headed Products, is a U.S. manufacturer of high strength cold-formed bolts, studs, pins and other metal fasteners. Our parts are found in products all around us from the buses that drive our kids to school to the appliances in our homes to the armored vehicles that protect our nation.” 
 
The company was founded in 1969 and since that time it has grown and prospered, however as far as we know at “The Monty Heat Treat News” know the firm has always outsourced their heat treating requirements-but not for much longer. B&D recently invested in used Can Eng mesh belt furnace lines which were previously installed at Commercial Steel Treating in Madison Heights, MI, a facility which closed down in 2024. While the equipment is not yet in operation it will be under the direction of Mr. Gary Harrison who interesting enough use to work at Commercial Steel Treating.
 
It brings joy to our hearts to see a manufacturer making a substantial investment in what will be an impressive heat treat department.
