Fastener library for SOLIDWORKS
Replace the 'smart' Toolbox with dumb parts that actually follow the standards and do not require a license. Ditch random STEP files for native SOLIDWORKS models with mate references, cosmetic threads and stable mates.
DEMCON has over 100 engineers that make use of the 3D models from CAD Booster and the response has been great. The hodgepodge library from the past is replaced by a consistent set of models, which saves us time and money.

Single fastener types
If you only need to add a few fastener types to your existing library. Pick your standards and download the files directly.
ISO + NEN + DIN
The standard is leading
We went through the standards so you don't have to. We even work with NEN directly.
No ANSI fasteners yet, though.
Time is money
And doing it yourself is more expensive
Make use of the 800+ hours we spent on making software to create these models. That way you get to do what you do best, instead of reinventing the wheel.
Easily shareable
No more licensing troubles
Our 3D models will never be the cause of errors in your assembly. Sharing these models with customers and suppliers will also go without a hitch.
Automatic mates
Less clicking, fewer errors
Drag a bolt into your assembly and mates will be added automatically. You can even switch it out for another type and the mates will still not break.

Lightning is the add-in that makes working with fasteners fun again.We were tired of scrolling through endless lists of fasteners in SOLIDWORKS, so we built Lightning. Lightning makes it easy to add, edit and replace fasteners.
Just open the filter, pick a type, size and material, then drag the file into your assembly. Lightning will add a washer and/or a pattern for you.
NEN Partner
Get your standards + 3D models from NENWe are an official NEN partner. NEN is the Dutch representative (and one of the founders) of ISO.
NEN noticed that our 3D models are concrete implementations of their standards. They saw the value in that and they invited CAD Booster to join an innovation pilot.
As a result, you will be able to purchase our fastener models together with the standards in the NEN webshop, starting somewhere in the next few months.
