Aplix Inc. today announced that it has significantly reduced the lead times on its' 840 hook and loop products, for both "sew-on" and "self-adhesive" versions, to 1 week for the U.S. Aircraft/Aerospace market. This is a major development that will assist their customers in reducing inventories, cutting costs and facilitating on-time deliveries. Aplix 840 self-gripping closures meet FAR 25.853, FAR 25.856, ABS 1133, BMS 8-372 and are also resistant to chemicals and high temperatures. This remarkable achievement further enhances Aplix's position as the self-gripping fastener market leader in the Aircraft/Aerospace industry.
