Plant Investment for Special Fastener Subsea Marketplace

Hague Fasteners are thrilled to take delivery of their new 4 Axis Machining centre to add extra capacity to their ever increasing workload.

This is the 2nd phase of significant plant investment as Hague Fasteners continue to grow as they service new Export and UK markets.

A significant growth this year into the Subsea marketplace has seen particularly complex milled fasteners being regularly manufactured to Customers drawings and supplied through Scotland, Norway and throughout Benelux.

Managing Director, Jon Hague, explained “with the successful implementation of the 2013 Special Fastener Engineering Young Apprenticeship scheme the flexibility amongst our new young workforce is enabling us to make rapid Plant acquisitions to further improve the delivery times and variety of complex components we can offer our ever growing number of Global Customers.”


Hague Fasteners continue in the proud footsteps of their founder, they are still a Private Company owned now by the 2nd Generation of the Hague Family. The Company structure and strong financial position the Company enjoy, in their 5th Decade of Bolting Production, ensures needless bureaucracy does not inhibit the firms continued growth.

Hague Fasteners have always led from the front, opportunities are identified and the business plan tweaked accordingly to always ensure that Hague Fasteners are the rapid solution to bolting supply issues around the world.

Final Video Release by High School Work Experience Colleague Jack

Posted a little later than originally planned, we are really pleased with the final video created by Smestow School work experience colleague Jack during his work placement with us based on the history  & origins of Hague Fasteners Limited.

His inspiration for this video was Hague Fasteners founder Jack Hague’s origins in the industrial area around Sheffield in North England, leading to the creation and development of the company in the English Midlands city of Wolverhampton, which was back in 1971 part of Staffordshire.

The fledgling company of Hague Fasteners soon developed during the 1970s and 1980s into a global powerhouse of  fastener manufacturing and the video leads on to explore this proud tradition of producing custom fasteners for the UK Home Countries as well as for export to a wide range of industries around the world.

What an amazing tribute from one Jack to another.

The world has changed a lot since 1971.  Some industries have almost disappeared (Ship building), newer industries have been created (Renewable Energies in the Power Generation sector), but whatever your industry or location in the world we are here to assist you with any enquiry you may have for special fasteners. 

Please contact us today with your RFQs for any special fastener in any of the wide range of materials commercially available.

Experts in Manufactured Engineer Studs Since 1971

For over 4 decades, Hague Fasteners have excelled in the quality manufacturing of Engineer Studs.


From small diameter engineer studs for automotive use through large diameter High Pressure Turbine Casing Engineer Studs used in Power Generation facilities all around the World, Hague have the capacity to serve your Special Manufactured Fastener needs.

What is an Engineer Stud ?
There are various key identifiers when it comes to specifying an Engineer Stud. Many international standards exist and Hague can manufacture to the dimensions required under all standards or indeed a bespoke special stud can easily be made to your unique requirements and drawings.


The Metal End is the Stud End that is screwed into the existing component base or body. This is generally 1 or 1.5 times the nominal diameter as specified by purchaser or international standard.
TheNut End is the Stud End which is not screwed into the existing component. A nut is tightened into this shorter threaded end to secure the fixing.
The Plain portion is the part of stud which is not screwed. This shall be greater than 50% of the nominal dia and normally includes thread runouts.
Nominal length- The British Standard BS4439 identifies a range of Nominal lengths from 12mm to 500 mm. The nominal length is the plain portion length & the Nut Threaded End added together.
d – Hague regularly manufacture Engineer Studs in the diameter range M6 (1/4″) through M100 (4″).
Threads Notes
According to the BS4439 standard the threads on the nut end and on the metal end shall be in accordance with BS 3643 parts 1-3. The nut end shall be to the tolerance 6g (medium fit.). This is as normal for a general bolt. The metal end shall be to the tolerance of a close fit (4h) or an oversize tolerance as specified.
The tapped hole shall be to the tolerance 4H or, if it is not critical application a medium 6H tolerance can apply.
Be sure to give the Stud Experts a call with your next Engineer Stud requirements. Hague Fasteners are ready to manufacture for you.

Wolverhampton Wanderers Sponsors Lunch 2012/2013

Earlier this week saw Hague Fasteners attend the Wolverhampton Wanderers 2012/2013 Sponsors Lunch.

This annual event is attended by Sponsors of the Championship Club, and Hague Fasteners enjoyed an afternoon with the Staff and Players of the Club.

Hague Fasteners were joined on their table by their sponsored player, Bjorn Sigurdarson. The Wolves number 15 is an Icelandic international who plays as a striker.


Björn presented Hague Fasteners CEO, Jon Hague with his Home & Away match shirts which he cordially signed over lunch.


Hague Fasteners were also thrilled to be joined by the Ireland Under 21 Goalkeeper Aaron McCarey, who is currently breaking into the Wolves first team after a successful loan spell with Walsall.

Despite a rather disappointing season Hague Fasteners, being a long established Wolverhampton based custom fastener manufacturer, are proud of their continued support of Wolverhampton Wanderers and wish them success as they strive to maintain their Championship status over the remaining few weeks of the season.

Apprenticeship Scheme Alive & Kicking At Hague Fasteners

Since September 2012 Hague Fasteners has worked closely with Bournville College to take on two new apprentices to help with our custom fasteners operations.

One apprentice started in September in an office-based administration role and the second apprentice started work on the factory floor as an trainee CNC engineer.  They are released one day each week to study further at college and are both working towards an NVQ qualification.

They have both settled into their respective roles effortlessly.  

We have found the whole experience truly worthwhile, finding two excellent new members of staff in the process.

We hope to add to this list a new apprentice in the warehouse & despatch department and thank Bournville College for their continued support with our search for this third new member of staff.

The future of manufacturing will only survive if these schemes are given the support from the private sector.  We need the opportunity to train eager indivduals so that we may pass on vital key skills in the field of engineering that otherwise would be lost.
