Reverse Engineering

Reverse Engineering of Old or Obsolete Special Fasteners

Hague Fasteners are experts in the Reverse engineering (or Back Engineering) of all types of Engineered Special Fasteners, fixings and turned parts.

We have seen a sharp increase in the need for identification, reverse design and manufacturing of all sorts of components. Often in very small batches such as 2pcs, 10pcs, 25pcs etc. where the component has been in use for many years and there is no longer access to the original parts’ Engineering drawing.

Bespoke Reverse Engineered Fasteners

Often the items are completely Bespoke Fasteners that need making exactly to the dimensions and thread sizes of the existing part.

Reverse Engineering
From Old To New

Hague Fasteners also offer modifications to the parts where required. This is often an increase in material strength or a material upgrade for extra performance and reliability or simply a slight modification to certain sizes. Perhaps increasing the length or changing the thread form.

Engineering Rebuild and Repairs

Our special Fastener reverse engineering service is utilised by companies large and small where old plant or vehicles are being repaired or rebuilt. We are also at hand to assist enthusiasts who are working on private vehicle projects where a part is needed, perhaps some new head studs, or some extended Wheel Studs for a classic car or race car modification.

We are also proven to manufacture very small batches of items that may even be available from other Countries. Our reverse engineered Fasteners offer a UK Manufactured solution cheaper and faster than seeking an overpriced import where the rarity of the product required sees an over inflated price at the expense of the purchaser.

Where a special component is required and their is no access to a drawing or technical design description, Hague Fasteners operate a convenient solution.

1. You obtain a quotation from a photograph, so no need to lose time and money by sending the item in. We just ask that the item is photographed alongside a tape or rule so that we can establish rough sizes and costings to reproduce. 

2. We will then send you our formal quotation for reverse engineering the part. 

3. If you are happy with the proposed offer you then send in the sample (or we can collect if inconvenient due to component size). We then get to work replicating the item required with a lead time to suit your needs. 

We look forward to hearing from you with any requirements you have for replacing older or difficult to obtain Fasteners.

Hague Fasteners offshore oil and gas bolting are often used for high integrity systems where the reliability and critical quality are essential for the long term performance of the structures they are fitted to, none more so when used as structural components and for high pressure vessels and piping.

As with all of Hague Fasteners precision manufactured components it is of critical importance that the Custom Fasteners and Superalloy Bolting are manufactured, without deviation, to the Original Equipment Manufacturers designs that provide for the required service life for the various exposure and service conditions they are designed and exposed to.

Bolting can fail for a number of reasons (e.g. overload, fatigue or corrosion). The materials selection, manufacturing methods, bolt fabrication, protective coating and the installation are all critical and need to be strictly adhered to, thus ensuring that long service performance is guaranteed. The actual service conditions and the external environment impact and maintenance will subsequently determine the service life of the bolting.

With over 40 years of Subsea Engineering experience Hague Fasteners turns your critically specified designs and drawings into High Integrity Quality Assured bolts ready to fit and install within hours where necessary.

What are Socket Cap Screws?

Socket Cap Screws are fasteners that are manufactured with an Allen key. These fasteners have a hexagon indentation at the top of their head which allows the user to insert an Allen key and unscrew or tighten the socket cap screws. The most common material used for manufacturing socket cap screws is high strength steel, and these fasteners are often praised for their strength and withstand pressure where other screws and fasteners would not.
These are just one of the custom made screws that Hague Fasteners manufacture.

 Hague Fasteners also create non standard socket set screws. These screws are similar to non standard socket screws, except they often have no head – this is because they are most commonly used within or against another object, and having no head allows for the socket set screws to be completely threaded.

Socket set screws have different point types for different situations; this can be very helpful to engineers.
The different point types are;
          – Flat

         –  Domed

          – Cone

          – Cup

          – Knurled Cup

          – Extended
Socket Set Screws and Socket Cap Screws are used everywhere in the modern world, from vehicles to furniture you can find these fasteners all over the place.
Hague Fasteners specialise in the manufacture or non standard socket screws and special fasteners, they even create custom made screws from OEM and Customer Drawings.
