TULSA, OK (October 6, 2023) – BlackHawk Industrial, a market-leading distributor of metalworking and other mission-critical industrial products, announced today the integration of Big Red Fasteners into its fastener portfolio significantly bolstering the company’s fastener division.

The game-changing integration marks an exciting milestone in the company’s ongoing fastener expansion effort and makes BlackHawk’s Fastener Division one of the most comprehensive and robust in the industry.

John Mark, CEO of BlackHawk Industrial said, “We are excited to expand the category coverage of our fastener division, deliver value that is unprecedented, and continually sharpen our blade to be relevant to our customers and the industry.
