IHS Offers Fasteners eCatalog

Technical information provider IHS Inc. lauched its Fasteners eCatalog, billed as “the first engineering-oriented parts research tool for industry standard and military fasteners.”
According to IHS, the eCatalog reduces the search time needed to navigate through standards document references. “Users can parametrically refine their searches to a concentrated set of options, shortening their design cycle times and improving parts reuse,” the company stated.
The product features intelligent part number searching across more than 700,000 AIA/NAS and Mil-Spec standard fasteners. IHS’ eCatalog is endorsed by the Aerospace Industries Association, which is the company’s primary standards provider.
“At approximately $20,000 per new part introduction, the financial impacts to manufacturers are enormous, but still pale in comparison to the liability associated with poor part selection,” said IHS senior vice president Paul Evenson. Web: ihs.com �2006 FastenerNews.com
