As a mechanical engineer, you strive to design and create a safe and effective product at the lowest possible cost. To help you do just that, Bossard offers several innovative solutions and technical resources. In addition to offering tailored fastening solutions, we also provide our clients with in-depth education and learning opportunities. Let’s take a closer look at four educational videos designed to help you become a better product design engineer and expert.
Expert Education
At Bossard, we are proud to share our extensive knowledge about product engineering and fasteners in our Expert Education courses and seminars.
These tailor-made training sessions are designed to answer a range of questions, such as:
- Can you answer with certainty that the right tightening torque is currently being applied to your application’s bolts?
- Is the preload in the fastening joints enough to withstand external forces?
- Will the fastening joint be secure over the lifetime of the product?
- How many times will an existing bolt be reused while maintaining the application?
In the end, the Expert Education e-learning module can help slash your total cost of production by up to 40%. This robust learning portal will help you develop in-depth knowledge about engineering principles, applications, fasteners, and assembly technology, and more. Through Expert Education, you’ll be empowered to quickly make fastener design decisions and expedite the mechanical design and production process in your organization.

Expert Assortment Analysis
The Expert Assortment Analysis is a cutting-edge process designed to save your firm time and money. This innovative solution is designed to create efficiencies by addressing concerns, such as:
- Do you suspect you’re utilizing countless C-parts and have lost the overview?
- Do you believe that your collection of fasteners includes unnecessary or redundant variations and elements?
- Are you wondering about the potential cost and time savings that could’ve been gained if your C-parts would’ve been streamlined?
Through our Expert Assortment Analysis, we’ll help you eliminate unnecessary elements. We’ll look for similarities where substitutions are possible. We’ll reduce complexities in purchasing, warehouses, and assembly. We’ll define your assortment to pick from and show you how significant your savings can be.

Hydrogen Embrittlement of Fasteners
Have you ever experienced a broken screw in one of your products? Unexpected failures of fasteners cause damages and high costs. One of the top reasons is hydrogen embrittlement.
Also known as hydrogen attack, hydrogen embrittlement is a process where the metal becomes brittle or fractures over the exposure of and diffusion of hydrogen through the metal. As you can imagine, hydrogen embrittlement is a very serious matter and can pose monumental problems to your product if overlooked. Fortunately, the team at Bossard Can help.
Watch our recent video that explains the ins and outs of hydrogen embrittlement of fasteners.
Expert Teardown
Sometimes you must work backward to see a product in a new light. And at Bossard, we offer an exceptional Expert Teardown service where will strategically disassemble your product into its single fasteners and parts. Carefully analyzing the interface complexity, our product engineers will examine every square inch to best find cost-saving potential, understand functionality, and discover reliability improvements.
