Valves & Flow Control

Tachart Ltd t/a Bolt & Nut Manufacturing produces special fasteners and machined components for the Valve and flow control industry including bolts, capscrews, studbolts, nuts and washers from a variety of alloys ranging from petrochemical grades such as B7 and B16 through austenitic, martensitic and duplex stainless steels to Superalloys such as Inconel, Hastelloy and Nimonic.

The modern valve manufacturer and valve repair specialist are multi-skilled operations that must offer problem solving techniques and employ an exhaustive portfolio of engineering talent in order to address the needs that the modern world levies on the flow control industry.  Valve manufacturers are required to improve safety, reduce risk, improve efficiency, lower emissions, reduce waste and improve the environment.  It’s product must be a robust and reliable high quality engineered capable of operating in the most severe environments including corrosive, erosive, oxidising, pressurised, cryogenic and high temperatures.

The requirements of the modern valve manufacturer upon its supply chain are equally demanding. In order to maintain our “first choice” status for special fasteners and machined components with our valve customers, BNM utilises its vast metallurgical experience and knowledge that is the envy of our competitors and we hold an exhaustive library of national and international standards both current and historic. BNM has the intellectual competence to process and understand customer or project specific material specifications and quality plans with additional performance and testing requirements to a time scale.

In order to put ourselves in a position to “save the day” for our customers BNM utilises our flexible manufacturing approach and dedicated workforce to process urgent orders for immediate production and delivery. BNM stocks a large range of raw material, pre-vetted and tested a third party in order to offer enhanced delivery options when it really matters as many products can be machined and delivered the very same day including nickel alloys such as Inconel fasteners.

BNM also offers monitored delivery performance reporting for our valve customers and since our raw materials are fully traceable to the original mill certification we are able to manufacture products from favoured mills or from a specific origin. BNM is happy to receive quality audits from our customers and to regularly attend meetings that will enable us to tailor our services further including inventory control, Kanban and the arrangement of call off orders.
