SEFA OFFERS FASTENER BASICS PROGRAM<br />

SEFA’s first training program- Fastener Basics was held<br />

on September 2nd and 3rd in Marietta, GA.<br />

Our goal was to have 20 attendees for the initial<br />

program and we had eighteen students. This program<br />

covered subjects such as materials, manufacturing<br />

processes, and part identification.<br />

Participants were shown the difference in head markings<br />

and how to recognize various parts. Other areas covered<br />

were blue print/ specifications, product quality, secondary<br />

processes as well as how to order correct items.<br />

The presenters used sample parts, demonstration<br />

videos and other avenues to educate all that attended.<br />

SEFA Thanks The Presenters<br />

SEFA was very fortunate for the presenters who donated<br />

their time and shared their knowledge:<br />
