Why are non-standard fasteners so much more expensive than standard ones?
Non-standard parts are difficult to manufacture due to their difference from standard production, according to different designs.
In addition, some non-standard parts do not have proper molds for production, so the mold must be produced as needed, as the non-standard parts molds are likely to be produced once (because sometimes the customer no longer needs it, and it can’t be used in other projects), it can only be scrapped. So the cost is very high.
Ways to reduce the manufacturing cost of non-standard parts:
1: Increase the order volume
2: You can modify the product design drawings, technical specifications, etc to accommodating the available mold.
Price evaluation for the non-standard fastener needs to consider the product complexity, production cost, quantity, production lead time, etc., so it is definitely not as fast as the standard parts quotation. So Please give us more time. At the time of an inquiry, technical specifications and drawings of non-standard parts shall be provided. Thank you.
