Setting the standard in UK special fasteners

For more than 50 years, Hague Fasteners has led the UK’s specialist bolt and nut manufacturing sector for UK special fasteners manufacturers. The business has earned its reputation through precision engineering, dependable delivery and a commitment to quality that goes far beyond standard fastener production.

Today, that legacy is shaping a new benchmark for the entire industry. As a result, customers benefit from a manufacturing approach built on traceability, integrity and true process control.

What sets Hague Fasteners apart is not just experience, but the way the company manufactures. Every process is engineered for environments where failure is unacceptable. In sectors where safety, compliance and performance are non-negotiable, this disciplined approach is essential.

Quality built into every stage

Hague Fasteners’ production workflow is driven by strict, quality-led principles. Every component is manufactured with full material traceability, from raw material receipt through to final inspection. Moreover, dimensional accuracy is controlled at each stage, ensuring every part meets the exact requirements of the customer’s drawing.

Inspection is equally rigorous. For example, first article inspection, detailed dimensional checks and verification against technical specifications ensure that no component leaves the factory without meeting the highest standards.

Certified, documented and trusted

All certification and documentation align with contractual and regulatory requirements, giving customers complete confidence in the integrity of every fastener. ISO 9001 certified systems underpin the entire operation, supporting consistency, repeatability and continuous improvement.

Furthermore, Hague Fasteners’ commitment to responsible, compliant manufacturing is reinforced through its alignment with respected UK standards bodies, including the British Standards Institution, Made in Britain and the British Stainless Steel Association.

Supporting the world’s most demanding industries

The industries that rely on Hague Fasteners operate in some of the harshest and most safety-critical environments. These include nuclear, defence, oil & gas, heavy engineering and power generation. Therefore, these sectors depend on fasteners that perform under pressure, without compromise.

  • Reliable global supply backed by responsive Wolverhampton based production

Raising the standard for special fasteners

Hague Fasteners raises expectations in a market where precision, traceability and trust matter. The team rejects mass‑produced, catalogue‑driven manufacturing and instead engineers every fastener with care, control and full accountability.

Organisations that need high‑integrity, made‑to‑drawing fasteners rely on Hague Fasteners because the company delivers exactly what the application demands. As a result, customers know their fasteners will perform as specified, even in the most demanding conditions.

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's "Special Fastener Gallery" Getting Record Number Of Visitors

Hague Fasteners have been amazed with the popularity of their Live updated Special Fastener Gallery feature on their recently re-launched website.
Even before the site has had time to be re-indexed by Google, the number of hits has exceeded all expectations with the Gallery being visited by over 70% of visitors every day.

The exciting Gallery feature was built into the new site as a way of showcasing some of the infinite array of Non Standard Fasteners, Non Standard Socket Screws and Non Standard Items to OEM drawings.
Hague Fasteners appreciate that whilst they may publicise their expertise in manufacturing Custom Wheel Studs, for example, this may not pique the interest of buyers seeking Custom Tie Bars or Square Head Bolts. It is this “pigeon hole’ing” that has been a source of frustration for the Sales Team at Hague Fasteners who desperately want to showcase Hague’s full capacity and capabilities.
The Special Fastener Gallery is the perfect solution, with new images constantly being added before new manufactured non standard bolts and nuts are packed and shipped to all industries around the World. You will always see the latest new images first as you revisit the Gallery page of the Website.
The Hague Fasteners Brochure can only ever give a very broad outline of the Fastener Manufacturing capabilities, so enjoy the live Showcase and learn more about the infinite range of fasteners Hague can supply at www.HagueFasteners.co.uk
