Swagefast supports the growing renewable energy sector in South Africa by supplying Swagebolt Pins & Collars to manufacturers of large-scale Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) and Solar Photovoltaic (PV) systems.

As solar technology becomes widely adopted as a viable energy investment, the production of solar plants requires an innovative fastening solution that ensures high speed assembly, resistance to vibration, consistent high clamp and tamper-proof joints. The Swagefast Fastening System offers a highly vibration resistant joint owing to its unique design in which the collar is swaged into the annular locking grooves of the Swagebolt – ensuring a permanent joint.
