PennAuto™ Products


PennAuto fastener products offer a unique manufacturing and distribution methodology based on manufacturing high-strength components and fasteners in PennEngineering’s wholly owned manufacturing subsidiaries in Kunshan, China.

Supported by sales, product inventory, distribution services, and customer technical assistance, the products are strategically located close to its global customers.

Using a specialized approach, PennEngineering can produce PennAuto hardware with complex geometry using cost-effective and advanced processes, unlike conventional machining methods. PennEngineering utilizes highly controlled, multi-process, high-volume production techniques, which involve forming or forging of the basic fastener shape followed by precision secondary turning or machining operations to complete the job.

This capability uniquely positions PennEngineering to deliver product at a lower cost while achieving the same or improved levels of quality, as compared with their Western competitors who are locked into high manufacturing and distribution cost structures. Local service centers provide our customers with personalized service and the assurance of continuity in product supply from operations in China.
