Military/Government Fasteners | The Coating House

At The Coating House, we specialize in supplying and coating fasteners for military and government applications, where performance, traceability, and compliance are non-negotiable. From MIL-SPEC to DFARS-compliant materials, we ensure your parts meet the strictest standards in the industry.

Whether you’re sourcing fasteners for ground vehicles, naval systems, aerospace platforms, or secure enclosures, we provide fully certified components ready for mission-critical performance.

Types of Military Fasteners

We source and coat a wide range of fasteners commonly used across military and defense applications, including:

Socket head cap screws.
Hex head bolts and screws.
Nuts, washers, and spacers.
Threaded studs and rods.
Self-locking fasteners.
Sealing and pressure-tight fasteners.

Available in a variety of materials, including stainless steel, alloy steel, and non-metallics, many of our components meet or exceed MIL-SPEC and ASTM standards.

For assemblies requiring pre-applied adhesives or sealants, we offer Loctite Dri-Loc, Dri-Seal and Vibra-Seal coatings, applied in-house for clean, consistent performance.

Military Fastener Applications

The fasteners we supply and coat are used throughout the defense and public sector, including:

Ground vehicles and tactical platforms.
Shipboard and marine systems.
Aerospace and unmanned aircraft.
Secure communications infrastructure.
Weapons systems and enclosures.
Portable power and transport systems.

Fasteners in these environments must maintain vibration resistance, torque retention, and corrosion protection, especially under extreme temperatures and high-pressure cycles.

The Coating House team is the most customer focused organization I’ve worked with in my 20 years of supply chain experience. Our immediate need of a low prevailing torque fastener, with an integral locking feature, led us to the Henkel Dri-Loc product and ultimately the TCH team. From my first conversations with Kim and Harley, I could tell they were eager to take on this project and help us resolve our current line-down situation. They delivered sample fasteners within a week and supported our team throughout validation testing on our product. The TCH team eagerly participated in our new supplier assessment / approval process, going well beyond our expectations, and successfully meeting all DOD mandated requirements. Most small companies, without previous DOD supplier experience, would have probably no-bid this project, but Kim and her team’s perseverance and willingness to adapt to new requirements (i.e., NIST cybersecurity compliance) has set up TCH for potential future orders from Raytheon and other DOD contractors. They are small but a powerful organization, technically competent, extremely responsive, and when you call, you most likely get to talk to the president! What else could you want in a supplier? Thank you TCH team, your efforts are recognized and appreciated by the Raytheon supply chain team!
