You can provide the standard specifications required by your design or the vehicle maintenance manual. For custom needs, simply share your specific usage scenarios, load requirements, operating environment (temperature, humidity, corrosion), material preferences, and desired dimensions. Our engineering team, with decades of experience, can recommend or help design the most suitable specifications for your application.
As an IATF16949 certified manufacturer serving the global automotive industry for 38 years, we routinely produce fasteners compliant with a wide range of international and national standards, including but not limited to:
ISO (International Standards, e.g., ISO 898-1 for bolt strength grades)
GB(Chinese National Standards, e.g., GB/T 3098.1 for bolt mechanical properties)
DIN (German standards, e.g., DIN 933 for hexagon head bolts)
JIS (Japanese standards, e.g., JIS B 1180)
ANSI/SAE (American standards, e.g., SAE J429 for bolt grades)
We also work with client-specific corporate standards.
The choice depends heavily on the fastener's application, required strength, and environmental exposure. Common materials include Carbon Steel (for general strength), Alloy Steel (for high strength grades like 10.9 and 12.9, a specialty for us), Stainless Steel (for corrosion resistance), and potentially specialized materials for unique needs. Surface treatments like various types of zinc plating, phosphating, Dacromet, Geomet, etc., are selected for corrosion resistance, friction control, or appearance. With our 38 years of experience serving OEMs and Tier 1s, we can provide expert guidance on material and surface treatment selection based on your specific performance requirements and operating environment.
We specialize in manufacturing a comprehensive range of automotive fasteners, particularly focusing on custom solutions and high-strength requirements. Our core product categories include:
Automotive Bolts (including high-strength and flange bolts)
Automotive Nuts (including flange nuts)
Automotive Washers (including spring washers)
Automotive Studs
Automotive Pins
Automotive Retaining Rings / Rings
We excel at producing these items with specific dimensions, unique head styles, complex thread types, specialized materials, and advanced coatings to meet diverse OEM and Tier 1 needs.
Quality is the foundation of our 38-year history. Our quality assurance is built upon:
IATF16949 Certification: Our entire Quality Management System is certified to this rigorous automotive standard.
Proven PPAP Compliance: We are fully experienced and compliant with the Production Part Approval Process required by the automotive industry.
Strict Material Control: We request and verify material certifications from our suppliers.
Comprehensive Testing: Our in-house laboratory is equipped for various tests including tensile strength, torque, hardness, salt spray (corrosion resistance), dimensional checks, and more. We provide detailed test reports.
Process Control: Rigorous quality checks are implemented at every stage of manufacturing, from incoming raw materials to final inspection.
Traceability: Our system ensures full traceability of materials and production data for every batch.
Yes. We understand the evolving needs of EV manufacturing, which often require fasteners that are lightweight, highly corrosion-resistant (especially around battery systems), and possess higher strength due to different load characteristics. We have experience developing and producing custom fastening solutions specifically for EV construction, utilizing appropriate materials and coatings to meet these advanced requirements.
Choosing Zhejiang Zhongrui means partnering with a supplier that offers:
Proven Experience: 38 years dedicated to the automotive fastener industry, with a strong track record serving OEMs and Tier 1s globally.

Manufacturing Process Complexity: Custom shapes, complex geometries, tight tolerances require more advanced processes.
Surface Treatment & Coating: Advanced automotive-grade coatings (like Dacromet, Geomet) are typically more costly but offer superior performance.
Quality Control & Certifications: Maintaining IATF16949 certification, conducting comprehensive testing, and ensuring full traceability add value and cost.
Engineering & Customization Support: Our ability to engineer and validate custom solutions is a value-added service.
While prices may vary, our focus is on providing optimal value through guaranteed quality, reliability, and expert support for critical automotive applications.
Lead times vary depending on the order:
Standard Items (if in stock): Generally shipped within 3-7 days.
Standard Items (production): Typically require 15-30 days.
Custom/Non-Standard Items: Depending on complexity, design, tooling, and production schedule, lead times range from 30-60 days.
Large Volume Orders: Production scheduling will be coordinated, typically ranging from 45-75 days.
We work closely with clients to meet project timelines and can discuss expedited options for urgent needs.
Absolutely. This is a core strength of Zhejiang Zhongrui. We specialize in custom fastening solutions and have the engineering expertise and manufacturing capability to produce non-standard fasteners according to your detailed drawings and specifications. To initiate a custom order, we require:
Detailed Technical Drawings (including dimensions, tolerances)
Required Material & Strength Grade
Required Surface Treatment
Intended Application/Usage Scenario
Estimated Annual Usage / Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ) consideration.
Our team will review your requirements and work with you through the PPAP process to ensure the custom part meets your exact needs.
Partnering with an IATF16949 certified supplier like Zhejiang Zhongrui is the best preventative measure. Additionally:
Request and approve samples (PPAP process) before mass production.
Ensure a detailed procurement contract is in place, clearly stating quality standards, testing requirements, and acceptance criteria.
If possible, conduct factory audits or inspections during production (we welcome factory visits to our Jiaxing facility).
Review provided quality control reports and material certifications for each shipment.
We offer flexible packaging solutions tailored to your needs, including:
Small count packaging (e.g., bags for service parts or retail)
Standard carton packaging (suitable for bulk shipping)
Pallet packaging (for large volume export, providing stability and protection)
Rust-proof packaging (using VCI bags or special films for long-term storage protection)
Customized packaging upon request.
