For over four decades, Latham Steel has been a trusted name in Hamilton, New Zealand, known for robust manufacturing and reliable supply. Our foundation is built on deep industry knowledge and a commitment to local service, ensuring we meet the specific demands of New Zealand’s toughest projects. We take particular pride in our Alloy Steel Gr B5 fasteners, a premium product line engineered for superior performance in high-stress environments where ordinary components simply fall short.
The strength of these fasteners comes from a carefully balanced composition, primarily chromium and molybdenum, which gives them a distinct advantage. This alloy mix allows them to achieve excellent mechanical properties, including high tensile strength and remarkable resistance to wear and tear. They maintain their integrity under substantial pressure and elevated temperatures, making them far more durable than standard carbon steel options for critical applications.
