Why are my bolts rusting faster than before?

Hexavalent vs. Trivalent

Wondering why your bolts are starting to rust in 1/2 the time they used to? Changes to the plating standards have a lot to do with it. These changes are better for our environment, but our fasteners are now showing corrosion in less time than ever before. We can offer an explanation and a few solutions to help you here!

Duncan Employee's Delivered at Christmas

Two families receive wonderful gifts!

Thanks to the generosity of Duncan Bolt employees, two families at the Salvation Army's Transitional Living Center in Santa Fe Springs were able to celebrate and give thanks. "Alone, we couldn't do much, but together we were able to purchase the musical instruments, bicycle and vacuum cleaners the families asked for", says one Duncan employee. "We hope those famililes had a wonderful Christmas and know that with a little hope, things can get better!"
