Video: The Life of a Bolt

red-bull-bolt-4Can a simple threaded fastener be a work of art? As this beautiful and enlightening video from the Red Bull Formula 1 team illustrates, yes. Watch and be inspired. 

 

 

Produced by Brother Film Company for Red Bull Racing, this beautiful little two-minute video follows a custom-made bolt through each step of creation, from design to machining, treatment, testing, and installation. From there, the film can speak for itself in demonstrating that there’s far more to a threaded fastener—or any automotive component, for that matter—than may meet the eye. Please enjoy the video, as we know you will.
