Company Description

Anixster Component Solutions is a market-leading supplier and distributor of industrial fasteners and components. We have a range of over 12,000 standard catalogue parts covering fasteners, screws, nuts, plugs, caps, terminals, tapes, ties, clips and much, much more. And with Anixster, the possibilities are endless, because we offer a bespoke component manufacturing service for customers who need precise parts to suit their application. The quality of our products is of paramount importance to us. Over the years, we have built up a reputation for the highest standard of manufacturing, and we do not intend on relinquishing that reputation. That is why we have developed Quality Control Systems accredited to ISO 9001:2008 standards – this ensures that each and every component we produce meets and exceeds our customers’ expectations.

We have been involved in the production of metal and plastic fasteners for over 40 years, which is why we’re one of the UK’s most trusted suppliers. Our clients include those involved in IT and Electronics, Industrial Equipment and Accessories, Telecommunications, Lighting, Domestic Appliances and Equipment, Automotive, Aerospace, Transport, POS, Healthcare and Medical, Distribution, and many other industrial sectors. Below you will find information on some of our product categories. For detailed advice or guidance on the components we supply, please get in touch with the team at Anixster. They can help you find the most suitable products for your application, or discuss the possibility of bespoke manufacturing.



Assortment Kits

Our Assortment Kits are ideal for those who need a selection of components, seals and fasteners in one place. Whether you're maintaining equipment or developing from scratch, it is always easier to have the part you need ready for use.

In fact, having a range of parts to hand is extremely useful when you need to complete a repair in time or build your prototype without having to wait for samples to arrive. Anixster Assortment Kits include stainless steel fasteners, metric nylon washers, dome plugs (hole plugs), nylon panel fasteners, metric nylon screws, O Rings, O Ring splicing kits, and metric nylon nuts.



Cable Management

Anixster has an extensive range of cable management products for clamping, routing and protecting cables and wires. Cable routing products include push mount, adhesive mount, edge mount and screw mount cable clips which are designed to bundle, mount and protect wiring and cables.

For the protection of cable we supply PVC and rubber grommets which prevent damage to wires as they pass through panels or bulk heads. Anixster is also an authorised distributor of Thomas and Betts products, which means we have a large selection of cable ties, including the popular Ty-Rap and Ty-Fast series of products. Other products within this category include cable glands, strain relief bushings and terminals.



Caps, Plugs and Security Fields

Caps and plugs offer a cost-effective way of protecting and masking components, panels or pipes during transport or painting/plating processes. We have a large selection of caps and plugs, all of them moulded in bright colours for enhanced visibility and improved product identification. This includes taper plugs, threaded plugs and caps, EPDM and silicon caps and taper plugs, flexible PVC caps, pipe caps, threaded hole plugs and screw/nut covers.

Also available are a range of tamper evident security seals for auditable protection of goods containers or cargo. Find out more by visiting the Anixster website.



Enclosures

We supply over 100 types of high performance plastic enclosures manufactured by Fibox Oy Ab. These are designed to house and protect electrical and electronic components. Available in polycarbonate and ABS, Fibox Oy Ab enclosure systems offer ingress protection up to IP67 and impact protection to IK08. These come complete with a sealing gasket and screws for a mounting plate.

If you would like to find out more about our electric/electronics enclosures, please head directly to the Anixster website, or get in touch via telephone.



Control Knobs and Handles

The control knobs and handles we supply have been ergonomically designed to give a comfortable method of hand adjustment in a variety of applications. These have been produced from a hardwearing, durable nylon.

The range includes wing knobs, lobe knobs, slug-nut knobs, scallop knobs, tri-star knobs, straight and tapered knurled knobs, star knobs, button knobs, push/pull knobs, tapered knobs and ball knobs. These are suitable for a variety of applications, including medical, agricultural, industrial, automotive and leisure equipment. Metal inserts are included.

This category includes a selection of A2 and A4 stainless steel machine screws, nuts, washers and self tapping screws.

Machine screw styles include DIN 85 Pan Head, DIN7985/Z Pozi Pan, DIN 963 Slotted Countersunk, DIN 965/Z Pozi: Countersunk, DIN 7991 Socket Countersunk, ISO 7380 Socket Button, DIN 912 Socket Head Cap and DIN 933 Hexagon Head. We also have a range of tamper-proof Pin Tx screws – these prevent the screw from being removed by a flat or cross head screw driver.

Spring steel products include cage nuts, J nuts, U nuts, torque nuts and edge clips – many of these parts are available in a number of different finishes.

Motion Control Components

Anixster supplies a range of gear and hinge motion dampers which are designed to function with a sprung action in order to control either linear or pivotal motion. These are typically used in opening mechanisms such as car grab handles, glove compartments, article trays and sliding drawers.
