Fasteners for Composite Materials UK

Harrison Silverdale is a specialist source of fasteners for composite materials, supplying manufacturers across the UK and Europe since 1982 from its base in Dronfield, near Sheffield.

About Fasteners for Composites

Composites are light and strong but awkward to fix to. Drilled and tapped holes don't last and point loads can damage the laminate. Harrison Silverdale's core range includes fasteners for composites designed to spread load and provide a durable thread in GRP, carbon fibre and sandwich panels.

Choosing the Right Fasteners for Composites

Laminate thickness, core material and loads all shape the choice. Harrison Silverdale can help find a fixing that suits the panel and the application.

Typical Applications

• GRP mouldings
• Carbon fibre components
• Sandwich and honeycomb panels
