Clevedon Fasteners Ltd specialises in the manufacture of cold-formed components for use in the commercial and automotive markets world-wide. Formed in 1939, to supply the aircraft industry, we have always maintained the disciplines of technical competence, combined with outstanding customer service to forge a reputation for quality, reliability and rapid response to customer needs. Our highly skilled workforce is dedicated to the manufacture of components to the relevant quality standard, within the required time frame. We manufacture from ferrous and non-ferrous materials, in diameters ranging from 0.80mm (1/32”) to 10mm (3/8”) and lengths from 1.2mm (3/64”) to 120.5mm (43/4”) depending on the material required, its form and diameter to length ratio. Products can be processed (heat treated or plated) to any commercially available finish. Our delivery performance is further helped by in-house tool room facilities. We deal with discreet, scheduled, or blanket orders, delivered to customer requirements either by week, day (Kan Ban) or even time slot (Automotive). On line proof of delivery ensures despatches are tracked efficiently to the customer’s premises. We export our products world-wide and provide a complete service from fastener recommendations through to machinery and tooling. Finishing
Products can be heat treated and plated to any commercially available specification or finish. Quality
Manufacturing tolerances and product dimensions are controlled to relevant British Standards and supported by quality approval from major customers in the relevant sectors. All products are manufactured under our BS EN ISO 9001:2008 Quality Management System. Individual customer quality requirements are also catered for within our quality system.

Fasteners might be a small component, but without them, entire production lines can quickly come to a halt 🛑

Material shortages, changing steel costs, extended lead times and disruption further up the supply chain can all affect availability.

This is why reliable sourcing, forward planning and strong supplier relationships are so important.

At Clevedon Fasteners, we work with customers to help maintain a dependable supply of fasteners and engineered components that meet their technical and production requirements 🔩

Could one small fastener cause thousands in downtime? ⏰

It might be one of the smallest components in an assembly, but if a fastener fails, the impact can be significant 📈

Incorrect specification, poor material choice, overtightening, vibration or corrosion can all contribute to failure, potentially leading to damaged equipment, production delays and costly maintenance.

Fastener myth: Tighter is always better ❓

Overtightening a fastener can stretch the bolt, damage threads and reduce the reliability of the joint.

The right result comes from achieving the correct preload, not simply applying as much as possible 🔨

Correct specification, suitable tooling and controlled tightening all help ensure fasteners perform as intended.

New UK steel import rules are now in force 📆

From 1 July 2026, tariff-free steel import quotas were cut by 51%, with imports above the relevant quotas now subject to a 50% tariff 💷

While this doesn’t mean fastener prices will automatically rise by 50%, it could affect material costs, sourcing and lead times across the wider supply chain.

Sustainable manufacturing isn't just a compliance tick-box; it’s built into how we manufacture 🔨

As an ISO 14001-certified manufacturer, Clevedon Fasteners are actively lowering the carbon footprint of UK manufacturing ♻️

We approach sustainability through efficient engineering and smart logistics:
• Zero Waste Process: Cold forging is inherently a "green technology," producing net-shape parts with virtually no metal swarf or waste compared to traditional machining.
• Reduced Transport Emissions: By optimising transit routes and consolidating freight, we have reduced our transit carbon footprint by 15%.

Clevedon Fasteners specialises in high-precision, cold-formed components, solid and semi-tubular rivets, and self-piercing fasteners🪛

Unlike traditional turned parts that generate substantial scrap, our cold forging process shapes ferrous and non-ferrous materials into high-strength, net-shape parts with tight tolerances.

No pre-drilled holes and need a complex profile?

Our Self-Piercing Rivets (SPR) join sheets in a single automated stroke, removing secondary steps as we manufacture bespoke components from 0.8mm to 10mm in diameter to eliminate extra washers, nuts, and assembly time⌛

The best time to save money on your assembly is before the drawings are finalised 📐

At our sister company Clevtec Services, we don’t just supply parts to specification; we help you shape the specification itself. Our design support and engineering services are designed to catch assembly bottlenecks and joint weaknesses before tooling is committed.

Whether you need to:
• Simplify a complex joint with custom cold-formed components
• Reduce your active supplier list
• Solve persistent vibration or corrosion issues in the field

Our engineering team works directly with your designers to optimise manufacturability, saving you labour and rework costs down the line📉

The right fastener can improve far more than the joint itself 🔩

When fasteners are considered early in the design process, they can help make products easier to manufacture, assemble and automate.

A well-designed fastening solution can support:
• Faster, more consistent assembly
• Better compatibility with automated production
• Fewer separate components and manufacturing steps
• Improved material compatibility and long-term reliability
• Greater consistency across high-volume production

From self-piercing rivets to bespoke cold-formed components, the best solution is often the one designed around the application and manufacturing process from the outset.

In our latest article, we explore why early collaboration between design teams, production engineers and fastening specialists can lead to smarter manufacturing and better-performing products.
