Fastener Fair USA Nashville

Fastener Fair USA is the leading trade show for fastener and fixing technology in North America. Since its launch in 2018, the event has been held annually at rotating locations across the United States. It is exclusively tailored to industry professionals—manufacturers, suppliers, wholesalers, distributors, service providers, engineers, and end users from key sectors such as mechanical engineering, automotive, electronics, aerospace, and construction.

The event is organized by RX (Reed Exhibitions), a globally recognized specialist in trade fairs. With its “Fastener Fair” series, RX offers a worldwide platform for innovation, knowledge exchange, and business development in the field of fastening and fixing technologies.

Fastener Fair USA is much more than a product showcase. It serves as a dedicated hub for knowledge sharing and networking, covering every aspect of modern fastening solutions. The range extends from industrial fastener systems and assembly solutions to warehousing, distribution technologies, and manufacturing processes, including their applications in construction. The event places particular emphasis on practical, real-world insights, offering access to advanced manufacturing techniques such as cold and hot forming, screw machining, and modern surface treatments like coating, plating, and heat treatment—processes that are critical to durability and performance.

A standout feature of the event is the “Fastening 101” seminar, which delivers essential technical knowledge on topics such as torque, preload, and bolt strength. Aimed especially at newcomers and career changers within the industry, the seminar provides a solid foundation for understanding fastening technology. In addition, the trade show provides a forum for in-depth discussions on material selection, design considerations—such as head and drive types—and the cost-efficiency of various fastening solutions.

The show's rotating locations are strategically chosen in industrially strong regions across the United States, allowing it to reflect regional characteristics while attracting a technically knowledgeable audience from throughout North America. Fastener Fair USA provides a platform for product innovation, technological advancement, and the development of new business opportunities. It also fosters high-level professional exchange and supports the cultivation of strategic partnerships.

Fastener Fair USA has become a key event on the calendar for the fastening industry—characterized by its technical depth, international reach, and the expertise of one of the world’s most experienced trade show organizers.

The Fastener Fair USA takes place annually, and therefore for the 8th time previsibly in May 2026 in Nashville.
