Paslode, a division of Illinois Tool Works (ITW), recently named Apple Rubber as a winner of its 2013 Exceptional Supplier award.
Apple Rubber has provided rubber O-rings and gaskets to Paslode, a leading manufacturer and marketer of cordless and pneumatic fastening systems for construction, remodeling and industrial applications, for over 25 years.
“Apple Rubber is committed to meet the high standards of quality that Paslode requires,” noted John Tranquilli, Apple Rubber materials manager.
Over the years, Apple Rubber has implemented methods to hold tighter tolerance compared to industry standards — this allows for a more robust design and reliability for Paslode’s products. New rubber compounds were specially developed to lower friction, improve durability, and reduce power consumption.
Since the company’s creation, innovation has been one of Paslode’s greatest assets. The company continues to bring energy and leadership to the world of fasteners and fastening tools. Paslode’s fastening tools are considered industry standards and are known for their quality and reliability.
Paslode continues to be a leading domestic manufacturer of premium tool and nail fastening systems, supporting four plants in the United States.
Thank you to our friends at Paslode for the recognition — we look forward to providing quality O-rings, seals and gaskets to your company for years to come.
