MSC Industrial Direct has published two new catalogs. The first, volume III of its fastener source book, features 3,000 new products. The second provides a new source of information on the company's line of Accupro metalworking products.
Based on customer feedback, the industrial distributor added more than 3,000 new products to this most recent edition of its fastener source book, including items that are directly related to fasteners.
"Our catalog development is based on continuous dialogue with our customers on how we can better meet their needs," says Grey Levy, senior director of MRO at MSC in Melville, N.Y.
New to the catalog are 700 socket products that are manufactured in the U.S. Other additions include 18-8 and 316 stainless steel fasteners in a variety of catgories. Also added: Material handling bins and drawers used to house fasteners, hand tools and cordless drills.
At the same time, MSC has released a new catalog for its Accupro brand of metalworking products. The company has been distributing the line exclusively for more than 10 years and selling it through its MSC big book catalog.
"We created Accupro to provide our customers with a combination of productivity and product cost savings when compared with nationally branded products," says Erik Gershwind, senior vice president of marketing and product management.
The new publication features technical specs and training tips.
