Overview

One-off and specification-led fasteners sourced for obsolete, unusual and application-specific engineering needs.

01 / Detail

Look beyond standard catalogue dimensions

A standard fastener won't always fit older equipment, a specialist fabrication or an application designed around unusual dimensions. We source custom fasteners in Alford for one-off requirements, obsolete components and specification-led engineering work. The key is to define the part before sourcing begins. A drawing, physical sample or recognised part number can provide a sound starting point, supported by measurements, thread details, material, finish and strength requirements. We use this information to understand what makes the component different and to investigate a suitable supply route.

02 / Practical

Move from an unclear part to a defined order

Start by showing us what you already know. If the original component is available, its shape, thread and finish can be examined alongside the application. Drawings are useful for custom details that aren't obvious from a sample, while equipment references may identify an established specialist part. We then clarify the specification, discuss sourcing and confirm the suitable component before an order proceeds. Quantities can range from one unusual replacement to a planned fabrication batch, without a minimum order charge forcing you to purchase more than the application needs.
