For nearly fifty years, The Young Engineers, Inc. has been an industry-leading designer and manufacturer of aircraft and aerospace hardware, with a primary focus on fasteners for honeycomb panels and composite materials. As the world’s only privately held company specializing in the field, and with over 150 years of combined management experience in the aerospace fastening arena, we are eminently qualified to assist you with your honeycomb panel fastening needs.

Our extensive product line consists of various industry-standard and proprietary molded-in, mechanically attached, floating-nut and floor panel fastener types, along with rivet inserts, tensile fasteners and installation tooling. Whether you require fasteners manufactured from alloy steels and aluminum or exotic materials and composites (thermoplastics), you may select from our extensive range of in stock products or benefit from our ability to run 100-1M parts in our state-of-the art facility.

The Young Engineers has recently partnered with the product design development firm Applied Concepts Aircraft Solutions, Inc. of Stuart, Florida on the development of two new patented products: the Loret Isolator Insert™ and the Loret Latches™. The former is a unique insert that incorporates an elastomeric isolation device into a panel fastener, providing an alternative method for dampening structure in aircraft interiors, while also reducing part count, weight, and installation costs. The latter incorporates a unique actuation device that allows the latch to be highly customizable. They are available in several select designs, or can be custom designed to your specifications, and are available in paddle, push button and rocker styles. See New Products for additional details or Contact Us for additional details.

On 4 June 2007, The Young Engineers became one of only two Companies in the world to be accredited to Nadcap Audit criteria for fastener manufacturers. This approval is in addition to our ISO9001:2000 and EN/JISQ/AS9100:2004 certifications, our FAA TSO C148 authorization, US Defense Logistics Agency QSLM approval, and our recently received Nadcap certification for the chemical processing of fasteners.
