Established Leadership In The Assurance of Tight Connections In Quality Assemblies
When a screw loosens, a joint leaks or a component falls off— injury can occur and a product’s good name is instantly tarnished.
The Bradley Group Of Companies’ challenge is to prevent fastener failures by the addition of name brand pre-applied chemical adhesives, sealants and mechanical locking products. Like its customers, Bradley stakes its reputation on consistent, verifiable quality.
A Product To Meet Every Need
The Bradley Group Of Companies applies the finest preapplied products from LOCTITE®, 3M and FEDERAL PROCESSING COMPANY as well as Bradley’s own BRADLEY EPOXY and new WHITE NYLON PATCH®. Technical sheets are available from the website for each of the products offered at www.bradleygroupcoatings.com or from the customer service department. Another area of expertise is head painting of fasteners. Bradley applies the color specified by each customer using 2-part polyurethane or heat cured paints. In-house color matching precisely matches the customer’s color chip every time. Though pre-application of adhesive and sealants to NUTS challenges the competition, the Bradley Group has developed a wide range of application equipment to internally apply any Bradley offered products at competitive prices.
Bradley also sells BULK ADHESIVE AND SEALANT kits for in-house applications. Bradley’s experts assist customers in determining the correct pre-applied product for their application.
On-Time Delivery
Their new high-speed equipment preapplies Loctite, 3M, Bradley Epoxy and White Nylon to rigorous quality standards. High volume orders are turned around in record time. Bradley’s small lot cell was designed for the small users of pre-applied thread lockers and sealants. Small production runs, prototypes and small lot specials are assured of the same quality and delivery standards as larger orders.
With four regional service centers in St. Charles, Illinois; Gardena, California; Statesville, North Carolina; and Lakeville, Minnesota, Bradley is capable of providing immediate delivery at reduced freight costs.
Prototype Quantities
The Bradley Group Of Companies’ numerous production lines allow them to run small quantities, prototype quantities as well as continuous, high production quantities.
Systems That Assure Quality
The Bradley Group Of Companies is ISO 9001:2000 and committed to quality. Bradley tests to customers’ or industry standards. Certificates of compliance and performance test results are provided.

Serving Diverse Markets
The list of industries Bradley services keeps growing: Automotive, recreational vehicle, electronics, computer, power tool, heavy equipment, appliance, marine, hydraulic, pneumatic, and more. Bradley has designed special processing equipment to apply pre-applied adhesive to fasteners as short as 3 millimeters in length. So, thanks to The Bradley Group Of Companies, loosening is no longer of concern for manufacturers of laptop computers, cell phones and eyeglasses. They rely on Bradley’s pre-application of adhesives to secure their critical fasteners.
