Sherex Fastening Solutions launched a 3D interactive online catalog for engineers and designers. Sherex customers will be able to configure rivet nut fasteners along with passage sealing plugs and then download 3D CAD models in “as installed state” into their designs.

“Our customers were asking for 3D models of our products to include in their designs,” Sherex director of marketing Jill Cafery said. “The catch was, they wanted the models delivered in an ‘as installed state’ rather than ‘as purchased’ stateand on top of that they wanted them delivered in a variety of CAD system formats.”

Sherex vice president Adam Pratt said the online service is part of “consistently upgrading our product offerings based on the needs of our customers. TraceParts helps Sherex strengthn the relationships we have with our customers by saving them time and helping them make better designe decisions faster than with paper-based catalogs.”
