TR Fastenings (TR) will be exhibiting at Automechanika Birmingham from 4th-6th June 2019 at the NEC, having enjoyed successes at the previous three events.

As a Full Service Provider (FSP) to Tier 1 and Tier2 businesses supporting global OEMs in the automotive industry, TR delivers comprehensive support to its customers giving an end2end service.

A key focus this year will be on components for Electric Vehicle (EV) charging units and EV batteries (EVBs) as the EV market gathers considerable pace. The product required for these areas are already within TR’s portfolio and we will be able to support and advise on applications.

Glenda Roberts, Trifast’s global sales director, commented: “The growth of the EV market and the electric highways being created has led TR into new areas of development, in particular with battery production, the fixings that are required and the finishes. Our strength as a manufacturer and distributor is further enhanced by the design and technical support that we are providing to our customers as part of the FSP service. We have heavily invested in recruiting fastener engineers over the last few years and this is proving to be a much-needed support that we can offer to our customers, from the initial design right though to VA /VE initiatives on mature products.”

TR’s qualified engineers and Product Managers will be on hand at Automechanika to advise designers, production and purchasing teams, encouraging them to bring their fastener application issues to us so we can offer solutions and demonstrate our knowledge.  tr automechanika 19 evb medium
