Fastener distributor Würth Industry North America, Indianapolis, part of Würth Group, has acquired Fasco Fastener, a distributor of stainless steel, silicon bronze and brass fasteners to the wholesale, OEM and large retailer trade. Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.

The purchase will better serve the needs of Würth Industry's customers in the recreational marine market, as well as the solar and general manufacturing market.
