Sherex Fastening Solutions Year in Review 2023!
Hey everyone! This past year felt like a turning point where the shadow of the pandemic finally began to fade. We kicked things off with the launch of Optisert, our top-performing round body rivet nut, which has been a huge hit with customers. It’s amazing to see how much face-to-face interaction we’ve been able to resume this year, visiting our fantastic clients and coming up with innovative solutions to tackle complex fastening challenges.
Optisert Gaining Momentum
Optisert's diamond-shaped wedges and engineered knurls provide exceptional spin-out resistance.
Even though calling Optisert the best-performing round body rivet nut might sound like marketing jargon, we’ve got the data—and now the customer testimonials—to prove it. Several manufacturers have already switched to Optisert, and one even opted for the round body design over potentially costly alternatives like hex body rivet nuts.
The advantage is straightforward: Optisert offers spin-out performance in composites, plastics, carbon fiber, aluminum, and other soft materials that rivals hex body rivet nuts. For many applications, spin-out resistance is crucial, and round body rivet nuts traditionally lag behind hex body options in this area. With Optisert, OEMs no longer need to worry about producing hex holes—they can trust that this fastener will meet their expectations.
We’ve seen Optisert implemented across industries such as automotive, heavy trucks, and general manufacturing, with more projects on the horizon.
Innovative Solutions for Heavy Trucks and Agricultural Equipment
We recently introduced two new industry-specific webpages and a dedicated section on fasteners for composite materials. These pages showcase some of the most popular and best-practice fasteners tailored for specific applications.
The Fastener Solutions for Heavy Trucks, Fastener Solutions for Construction and Agriculture Equipment, and Fastener Solutions for Composite Materials pages are designed to help OEMs and distributors assess their current applications and identify opportunities to improve joint security or assembly efficiency. By adopting what other manufacturers are successfully using, you can reduce costs and minimize waste.
While many of these fasteners are standard offerings in our catalog, others represent custom-engineered solutions developed explicitly for unique requirements. Our engineering team works closely with OEMs to create fasteners that deliver superior performance, affordability, and ease of assembly.
Adam Pratt’s Insights at IFE
Our president, Adam Pratt, had the chance to speak at IFE and shared valuable insights on why rivet nut fasteners make excellent replacements for weld nuts. His presentations covered a range of topics, offering practical tips and real-world examples that resonate well whether you’re discussing Sherex products or general rivet nut applications.

Exciting Developments Ahead!
Just like Optisert, Sherex has more groundbreaking innovations in the pipeline that assemblers are sure to appreciate. As Adam Pratt emphasized during his presentation at IFE, we’re committed to pushing boundaries and helping manufacturers select the optimal fastener for every application. With new products on the horizon, we’re confident that we’ll continue delivering superior fasteners and creating better outcomes for everyone involved.
