Custom fasteners from Blue Diamond
Blue Diamond Technologies, the Hampshire-based bespoke mechanical parts expert, is diversifying its offering and is now able to produce bespoke industrial fasteners for any market sector.
The company, which already provides a single UK source offering global procurement of special parts, is now widening this service to supply custom fasteners with complex or unusual geometries in low batch quantities ¨C typically 500 upwards.
Custom fasteners are manufactured using hot and cold forging techniques at a fraction of the cost normally incurred to machine them from scratch.
This includes fasteners with eccentric heads, unusual head forms or recesses, captive washers, and with features such as thread-locking compounds and nylon inserts.
Examples of components already supplied by Blue Diamond include bolts and fixings with hexagonal socket, flanged, triple square, double hex, and hexalobular head forms. Nuts can incorporate flanges, castellations, self-locking features and captive washers.
