Books by Robert W. Messler

Mechanical fasteners offers quick, efficient and fail proof advantages when using them as interlocking individual components as compared to welding, soldering, gluing and using nuts bolts, rivets and other similar devices. Suitable for design engineers, this book offers a source of detailed, illustrated information on how such fasteners work.

Covers the options for joining conventional materials and the structures they comprise in conventional and unconventional ways. This work addresses processes and technologies such as joining by mechanical fasteners, integral designed-or formed-in features, adhesives, welding, brazing, soldering, thermal spraying, and hybrid processes.
