Fastenal data collection, done for you

  1. You send

    Fastenal pages, filters, fields and a schedule

  2. We run the scrapers

    Built, monitored and repaired by our team

  3. You receive the data

    API, JSON feed or CSV, XLSX and JSON files

Send us the scope: Fastenal categories, a brand such as Ormadus or Holo-Krome, a list of Fastenal part numbers, or the manufacturer part numbers from your own bill of materials. We set up the collection, run it on the cadence you choose and keep it working when fastenal.com changes. Access and anti-bot handling are included in what you pay for.

Before anything runs you get a free assessment of the scope, and a sample file to check the columns against your own systems. The delivered dataset comes with a field guide explaining each column, including the unit of measure behind every price. One-off extracts and scheduled refreshes are both available.

Fastenal product data we extract

Every Fastenal product lives at an address ending in its SKU, the Fastenal part number that stays with the item however the title is reworded. That number is the key of each row. The page around it carries the fields below.

  • IdentitySKU, product title, manufacturer, brand where one is given (ORMADUS, ROCK RIVER), the category path from the breadcrumb and the product URL.
  • Pricingthe Online Price for the selling unit, written as "/ each", "/ box", "/ kit" or a case or package with its count, and the Unit Price that breaks it down to a single piece. Both go into the dataset with their units, because a case price compared with an each price is meaningless.
  • Supply chainthe label as Fastenal shows it: Local DC Inventory, FNL Supply Chain, Available Inventory or Out of Stock, plus the Direct Ship line with its ship date, such as Ships TOMORROW.
  • Classification and originthe UNSPSC code, and the Country of Origin field where the page carries one, which on some items reads "Contact branch for Origin".
  • Specificationsthe Product Attributes list for the product family, such as Material, Type, Length, Grade, Finish and Standards on a hex cap screw, plus Product Weight, UOM and the Notes text.
  • Compliance and programmesREACH statements, the Environmentally Preferred Product flag, Locker pickup approval and vendible-item notes, with links to documents such as the Fastenal Product Standard.
  • StatusCatalog Item, Expanded Catalog Item and Express flags, the Non Catalog Item flag on non-catalog items, "Contact Branch for pricing" and "No Price Available", and discontinued items that point to a replacement SKU, as in "See Part #" or "Discontinued use".

Prices and purchasing options that only appear once you sign in to a Fastenal branch account are not part of the default scope; a project can run on your own Fastenal account when those are the point.

Fastenal product data we extract
Fastenal price list, branches and price history

Fastenal price list, branches and price history

A Fastenal price list for a category starts from the category pages. Their addresses carry a numeric category id and a sort order such as Best Match, and each page offers a Brand / Manufacturer brand filter with item counts plus attribute filters such as Material, Grade, Size and Finish, so the scope can be cut to a single grade or a single brand. The listing itself shows the SKU, manufacturer, Online Price, selling unit and supply chain label of every item.

The branch network is public too. Find a Branch leads to a page for each branch, addressed by a location code such as MNWIN for Winona, with its address. A branch directory joins naturally with product rows for coverage or territory analysis.

Fastenal runs a separate Canadian storefront at fastenal.ca with its own product pages, so a cross-border comparison means two sources joined on the SKU. Scheduled refreshes, keyed on the SKU, build price history for fasteners and everything else: bolt prices by grade and finish, case prices against unit prices, and the moment an item moves from Local DC Inventory to FNL Supply Chain.

Fastenal's story begins in 1967, when Bob Kierlin opened its first store in Winona, Minnesota. Fasteners remain a core department of the catalogue, which now also spans Safety, Electrical, Pneumatics, Pumps, Janitorial and Cleaning, Tools and Equipment, and Packaging and Shipping Products.

Fastenal is built around local branches, and the website reflects it. A visitor can browse the catalogue, see online prices and supply chain labels, and use Find a Branch or set My Branch. Fastenal also supplies customers at the point of use, and product pages show it: items approved for Locker pickup and vendible items are flagged as such, while purchasing options for branch account customers sit behind their sign-in.

Two brand names matter for anyone reading Fastenal data. Ormadus is the name Fastenal now uses for its own products, which earlier carried the Fastenal brand; it appears in the Brand field, while the Manufacturer field on many generic items reads Fastenal Approved Vendor. Holo-Krome, a Connecticut maker of socket head screws, is a Fastenal company too, which makes Fastenal a manufacturer as well as a distributor of socket head screws.

What a Fastenal dataset is used for

Fastenal's strength is the long tail of C-parts - the screws, washers, anchors and consumables that cost little each and add up across a plant. That makes its data useful in ways a consumer retailer's is not.

  • Should-cost for fastenersUnit prices by grade, finish and size show what a fastener should cost per piece, the basis for negotiating with any supplier.
  • Pack-size arbitrageThe Online Price and Unit Price side by side expose where a case is cheaper per piece than an each, or not.
  • Distributor benchmarkingCompeting distributors match their catalogue to Fastenal part numbers and compare price and availability label by label.
  • Bill-of-materials mappingEngineers turn a parts list into Fastenal SKUs with prices and supply chain labels for budgeting.
  • Private-label trackingOrmadus and Holo-Krome item counts per category show where Fastenal puts its own brands.
  • Lead-time riskSupply chain labels and Direct Ship dates show which items sit in local inventory and which wait on the wider supply chain.

About ScrapeIt

ScrapeIt collects web data as a managed service, so there is no tool to learn and no crawler to babysit. Distributor catalogues like Fastenal's are a good fit for us: deep category trees, attribute-heavy products and prices that only make sense with their unit of measure. Data arrives as CSV, Excel, JSON or JSONLines, through our API, by FTP or SFTP, in Google Cloud Storage or by e-mail. Plans start from EUR 169 a month, or EUR 199 for a one-time extract.

FAQ

Still unsure? Write to info@scrapeit.io

Is it legal to scrape Fastenal?

Yes. SKUs, product titles, online and unit prices, supply chain labels and UNSPSC codes are on fastenal.com for any visitor to read. We collect only publicly available data - everything a visitor can see on Fastenal - and we collect it legally.

Can you scrape Fastenal for a list of my part numbers?

Yes. Send Fastenal SKUs, manufacturer part numbers or plain descriptions, and we return the matching Fastenal rows with price, unit and availability label. Part numbers that no longer resolve, or that now point to a replacement part, are flagged so you can update your list.

Do you offer a Fastenal API for SKU and price data?

Yes. The ScrapeIt Fastenal API returns the Fastenal SKU, manufacturer, Online Price with its unit, Unit Price, supply chain label and UNSPSC code as JSON from an endpoint we host, refreshed on the schedule you set. You can take the same data as CSV or XLSX files, a JSON feed or a direct load into your database.

How do you handle Fastenal prices sold by the case or package?

We store the price exactly as listed, the selling unit it applies to, the pack quantity and the Unit Price Fastenal derives per each. Your analysts can compare like with like without parsing text, and a case never gets mistaken for a single piece.

Can you include fastenal.ca alongside the US site?

Yes. The storefront for Canada has its own product pages and prices, so we run it as a separate source and join it to the US rows on the Fastenal part number. Each row carries a site column and a currency code, so the two price lists never blur together.
