As we begin to mix our machining operations with heading operations Skybolt continues to move production to a higher scaled operation while keeping our manufacturing base to a 100% Made in America supply chain specific to DFARS compliant materials. This not only serves our component and kit sales base, it fits perfectly into our larger contract operations that serve just about every major defense and aerospace company in America and many abroad.

With this comes the best news. If one really believes that the only source for inexpensive goods has to originate in China, they have not been shopping in America lately. Besides DFARS, the Skybolt designs push the envelope for quality the first time, every time. If it says CLoc®, ZLoc®, or ALoc® on the package or part, you can be proud of the best quality made in America.

Only Skybolt is committed to constant design enhancements for even the simplest of parts. What separates Skybolt from any supplier of ¼-Turn Panel Fasteners is the fact that we must submit every design change for FAA Approval. There appears to be no other quality program on the planet that has such a requirement. Not the ISO 9000, or AS9100 program has this requirement. Our design team of Ned Bowers, Russ Ortner, and Paul Honour represents 105 years of engineering experience. Skybolt’s goal is to continually strive for excellence with continual improvements to our innovations making our products superior.

By bringing in-house our own DAR, Skybolt can deliver a part that exceeds AS9100 requirements and is FAA approved for any TC certified aircraft very efficiently and very quickly. That is an incredible claim. That is the business of Skybolt!
