The Young Engineers

The Young Engineers’ Quality Management system has been certified by Det Norske Veritas (DNV) to ISO9001:2015 and AS9100D (technically equivalent to EN 9100:2016 and JISQ 9100:2016) for the design and manufacture of precision metallic and non-metallic components and specialty fastening products for the aerospace industry. Our Quality System is approved by the Federal Aviation Administration, and we have Technical Standard Order (TSO) C148 authorization on all applicable fastening products. We are also on the U.S. Defense Logistics Agency’s Qualified Suppliers List for Manufacturers (QSLM) for Class 3 Threaded Fasteners (Cage Code 56958), and Nadcap certified for Chemical Processes, and were one of only two companies in the world to receive Nadcap Fastener Manufacturer accreditation.  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 developed two new patented products: the Loret Isolator Insert™ (US Patent No. 8,393,601 B2 and 8,777,193 B2; European Patent No. 2366910) and the Loret Latches™ (US Patent No. 8,534,718 B2, 8,770,634 B2, 8,757,675 B2 and 8,789,858 B2; European Patent No. 2236712 A2). 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. Although Nadcap discontinued this program, we are still Nadcap certified for Chemical Processes, along with our ISO9001:2008 and AS9100C certifications, our FAA TSO C148 authorization and US Defense Logistics Agency QSLM approval.   TYE is proud to have been selected for a featured segment on Today in America with Terry Bradshaw.
