For instance, next month the company will attend Fastener Tech ’17 to showcase its broad selection of eyebolts, rod ends, turnbuckles and more in carbon, alloy and stainless steels. By attending this major fastener industry conference, Ken Forging will also have the opportunity to take advantage of the show’s educational seminars, networking opportunities and more.
