Canonical: https://valuechain.wiki/fastenal · Facet: ripple · Updated: 2026-09-11T22:22:18.245193+00:00 · Source: ValueChain.wiki (cited money-flow graph)

**Citable summary**: Per the valuechain.wiki graph, Fastenal Company is directly linked to 2 companies (2 supply, 0 revenue relationships) and reaches 4 companies within two hops; the links are backed by 8 dated sources, 2 of them primary filings (as of 2026-09-11).

Fastenal Company operates across Embedded industrial supply. It stayed steadily positive in recent years and is +25.6% in 2026. The stock (+25.6%) and its supply side (avg +8.9%) are moving in step. Among connected nodes the furthest ahead is Illinois Tool Works Inc. (+11%) and the furthest behind is 3M Company (+6.8%). If chain logic explains the gap, the laggard is the next propagation candidate; if not, the link itself deserves a second look. In 2020, it acquired Apex vending-technology assets to bring a core part of that operating platform in-house.
