The fasteners most frequently used by machinery designers are screws, nuts, retaining rings, and various types of pins because of the basic role that they play in the assembly of mechanisms. Various industrial hardware components are used in the assembly process including knobs, washers, spacers, shims, handles, springs, spring-powered reels, and ball plunger screws.
