Miller Ingenuity, DuraForce sign exclusive distribution agreement

Miller Ingenuity has signed an exclusive distribution agreement with DuraForce Company, LLC, to sell the DuraForce™ Fastener Systems, the company announced August 4, 2015.

The patented Fastener System is unique because of its self-locking, vibration-proof technology that extends hardware life while reducing maintenance costs. Like many other Miller Ingenuity products, effective engineering provides for easy installation even at the most extreme conditions.

“We are known in the railroad industry for providing components like our Versylon Liners, Gear Case Seals and Locomotive Truck Part Kits that are easy to install, last longer than our competitors, and are the best overall quality,” said Steve Blue, President and CEO of Miller Ingenuity. “When the opportunity became available to bring the innovative DuraForce™ Fastener Systems into our product offerings, we all agreed they would complement our suite of products and prove of value for our customers.”

About DuraForce™ Fastener System:

• Never before has lateral force been integrated into a threaded fastener to ultimately deflect shock and vibration.

• FEA modeling is implemented to determine the most optimum product designs.

• A patented system creates a free-spinning, single-threaded component, self-locking, vibration-proof fastener system that is as easy to install and dismantle as a standard nut and washer using conventional tools.

As part of the exclusive agreement, Miller Ingenuity will also provide additional engineering, operations, and sales resources to support the DuraForce™ Fastener Systems. Visit Miller Ingenuity’s booth 3347 at Railway Interchange 2015 to learn more and test the Fastener System.
