This list does not include master distributors.
 
The challenge in creating a list of the top fasteners distributors is that so many companies are involved in this type of distribution – and most of them don't break out their revenues from fasteners from other parts of their businesses. In addition, companies that started selling fasteners often have diversified to a point where fastener sales no longer make up a majority of their revenues, as is the case with Fastenal.

Here are some of the largest distributors selling fasteners. Unless otherwise noted, fastener revenues were not broken out from overall revenues:

•Anixter International, Glenview, IL, USD450 million (North America, OEM Supply, incl. fasteners)
