Manufacturing

Rapid Industrial Industrial Fasteners are a proud British Manufacturer of fasteners and turned parts.

Operating from a separate facility less than ¼ mile away from our distribution centre, we manufacture all standard threaded fasteners in a wide range of steel, stainless steel, brass and exotic alloys including INCONEL, DUPLEX  and SUPER DUPLEX. Additionally, our fastener engineers are able to produce complex bespoke parts to drawing and customer specification.

Rapid have been able to apply a highly responsive and service driven culture to our manufacturing philosophy that has been gained from supplying highly demanding end users for over 40 years.

It is of total importance that we do what we say when we say. To that end, we operate a T card system to plan and manage our manufacturing orders so we can be transparent with our customers and communicate regular progress updates.

With hardwork, dedication and flexibility at the core of our business philosophy, we offer a premium level turnaround service on special orders. We will explore all options, leaving no stone unturned to deliver ‘panic’ orders including operating night and back-to-back shifts. We maintain stock levels of popular material grades and sizes to minimise delays in getting work on the machines.
