About us
The company’s experience with fasteners began in 1954 within the successful RF CELADA machinery and engineering group. At that time, our exclusive distribution agreement for Heli-Coil threaded inserts within Italy was of great importance.
Business growth led to the creation of CELADA Fasteners in 1975. The quality of the company’s products and their rising success in the marketplace gave rise, in 1986, to PSM CELADA Fasteners, a joint venture with the multinational group PSM International.
Today, PSM CELADA Fasteners is a leader in the distribution of fastening solutions, quick-lock systems, and assembly tools, with an extensive presence throughout Italy.
PSM CELADA Fasteners is ISO 9001:2015 certified

Services and technical support
At PSM CELADA Fasteners, we recommend using standard parts whenever possible. We can also provide special parts with specific measurements or with other specific performance characteristics.
Design
At PSM CELADA Fasteners, we recommend using standard parts whenever possible. We can also provide special parts with specific measurements or with other specific performance characteristics.
PSM CELADA Fasteners can provide all forms of technical support in terms of design, product samples, technical drawings, and testing through our collaboration with PSM International’s Technology Center in the UK.
CNC samples
At PSM, we use CNC machines to produce samples when the product design does not require any modifications. The characteristics of a CNC machine combined with an automated bar feeder enables us to produce larger sample sizes. The flexibility of this type of machine also allows us to replicate all the parts with a manual lathe. The machine shown is located at the UK Tech Center.
Manual sample production
PSM is also equipped with precision manual lathes. These are particularly helpful we need special parts very quickly or when performance testing is required.
Prototype production
At PSM, we use a great many types of machinery in production. These machines are also used to produce prototypes when quantities required are high or when PPAP or other quality standards must be met.
Technical drawings
PSM CELADA Fasteners can provide technical drawings on request.
Custom testing
PSM Tech Centers are equipped with a wide range of tools that can be used to verify the performance levels you require.
The most common include:
- Push-out
- Pull-through
- Body torque
- Maximum torque
- Jack-out torque
- Installation torque
- Release torque
- Tightening torque
