Doxsteel Fasteners’ mission is to revolutionize bolt theory and practice in the fastener industry. It is our goal to consistently conceptualize and deliver safer, less expensive, and more scientifically sound bolts to the industry.In the late 1990’s, our founder was offered the opportunity to bid on a contract to turnaround bolts and apply anti-corrosion paint to cellphone towers all over Mexico. He and his team gave a turnaround estimate of five days for They were happy (for a couple of minutes), but when they went to work they realized they had made a huge mistake. Mexico City is high in the mountains, and has a cool, dry environment. There is no corrosion problem in Mexico City because humidity there is low. In other parts of Mexico, however, such as the Gulf Coast or the rainforest jungle, salt sea fog and more stressful environmental factors lead to a much higher corrosion rate. To their horror, when the team attempted to change the bolts on these towers, they seized. Corrosion prevented the bolts from turning. They had to cut them and torch them to remove them from the towers. They started spending six days, seven days, up to five weeks on a single tower. They saw that the bolts were not representative of the cost; the cost of labor and moving people around the country was far more expensive than the cost of bolting.
