Thread Rolling
Precision rolled threads for critical applications.
Thread Rolling Services
West Special Fasteners provides high-quality thread rolling services for clients requiring durable, high-performance fasteners. As one of the UK’s specialist thread rolling companies, we offer precision and reliability where it matters most — in offshore, defence, chemical, and renewable energy sectors.
Thread rolling is a cold-forming process that displaces material to form threads rather than cutting them. This method enhances tensile strength, surface finish, and fatigue resistance, making it ideal for safety-critical environments.
Compared to cut threads, rolled threads are smoother, stronger, and more consistent — perfect for fasteners exposed to high stress, vibration, or corrosive environments.
