Off-Highway Equipment Components

MacLean-Fogg Component Solutions offers threaded fasteners, hose crimp fittings and engineered plastics for off-highway equipment. Use the component's assembly function and operating requirements to choose the relevant product discussion.

Choose a threaded-product pathway

StepLok two-piece nuts, prevailing torque nuts and custom cold-formed special fasteners are included in the off-highway portfolio. They represent different product designs. Define the required locking function, mating thread, installation method and service/removal needs before selecting one.

Review spindle-nut options by assembly requirement

The hot-forged spindle-nut family includes options with or without forged washers and a range of prevailing-torque features and coatings. Its product page lists off-highway applications. Confirm the assembly and adjustment requirements for the specific component instead of assuming compatibility from the equipment category.

Define the fitting or molded-component geometry

Cold-formed hose crimp fittings are available with or without internal grooves. EPC's molding and assembly capabilities include injection molding, insert molding, overmolding and automated assembly. These pathways help separate a formed-metal fitting inquiry from a molded-part or assembled-component inquiry.

What if my application includes a temperature-sensitive joint?

Use the high-temperature bolts and studs information to prepare a joint review. Describe thermal cycling, vibration, joint materials and installation requirements together. A listed product family does not establish the material or thread design for your application.

Prepare for an application discussion

Provide the component function, drawing, mating parts, material requirements, operating environment and expected volume. For an assembly change, explain how the existing part is installed and what the new design needs to do.
