ZAGO Manufacturing Co., Inc. High-Tech, Sustainable Sealing Fasteners, Switch Boots, & Crystal Seals Helping Engineers Accelerate Global Innovation ZAGO Manufacturing was cofounded in 1993 in Newark, NJ, by an engineer, Harvey Rottenstrich, for fellow engineers who require sustainable sealing solutions to solve their toughest sealing equipment challenges and accelerate innovation. Initially used by the military and aerospace for its ability to seal out and prevent seepage of contaminants under extreme pressure, temperature and in treacherous environments, today ZAGO sealing solutions and components are used in countless industries, including, electronics and enclosures, LiDAR, commercial lighting, medical devices, robotics and drones, industrial manufacturing, marine, energy and automotive. www.zago.com

Walking the Walk of a Sustainable Manufacturer In addition to making clean, inherently green sealing fasteners, (sealing screws, sealing bolts, sealing nuts, sealing washers), ZAGO implements the latest lean manufacturing processes to conserve energy, minimize waste, and enhance operational efficiencies. ZAGO bought and refurbished a 100-year old manufacturing facility in Newark, NJ, to brighten a blighted urban community and benefit the local economy. ZAGO is powered by clean energy derived from a solar array installed on its rooftop and participates in a global supply chain that complies with global initiatives restricting the use of hazardous and questionably sourced materials. ZAGO runs ZAGO Sustainability 360: An award-winning community program addressing environmental, economic, and employment issues while providing STEM / manufacturing education, scholarships, and skills-based training to stakeholders in underserved communities. Accelerating Global Innovation Engineers rely on ZAGO tamper-proof, hightech sealing fasteners and components to seal everything from LiDAR systems, sensors and 3D cameras to pneumatic medical ventilators, robots /co-bots, lithium batteries in electric cars, electric vehicle charging stations, underwater vehicles, satellites and more.

About ZAGO Manufacturing Co. ZAGO Manufacturing is an award-winning family-owned business manufacturing sealing fasteners and components in the U.S.A. ZAGO sealing fasteners are engineered with a groove under the head of the fastener or the face of the nut that when combined with a rubber O-ring and tightened, creates a 360-degree air-tight seal, preventing dirt, moisture, disinfectants, oil, gas and other contaminants from entering and damaging high-asset equipment and hazardous substances from leaking into the environment. ZAGO water-resistant sealing fasteners can withstand extreme pressure, temperatures, and weather. ZAGO sealing screws meet Military Spec NASM-82496 and pressure resistant to1,500 psi.
ZAGO switch boots protect electronic switches used underwater from saltwater, wind, bacteria, and crystal seals shield electronic devices from the elements and are crystal clear for instantaneous visibility. Products are NEMA-ready. ZAGO meets ISO 9001:2015, DFARS, UL, MET U.S., REACH, RoHS and California Prop 65. Visit www.zago.com.
