Published on : Monday 09-03-2020

WDS are the UK’s leading manufacturer of standard parts for use in machine build components, standard parts, jigs & fixtures, and consumer products.

WDS first encountered the construction world through builders of mobile plant like diggers, dumpers, cranes and bulldozers, supplying their production lines with all the components you would expect to find in a complex vehicle. These include simple nuts, bolts, locating pins, knobs and levers and more specialist parts such as universal joints, anti-vibration mounts, clamps, locks and latches.

With all these parts being built into machines that were going to operate in demanding environments, it was inevitable that operators would start ordering spares for delivery to building sites. This in turn lead to lead to the building workers scrolling through the WDS website with requests to meet other demands.

WDS also supplies the construction sector via its OEM support companies. The company has worked with manufacturers of fire-safety doors and windows to integrate gas struts into automatic opening and closing mechanisms. It has also helped security firms to develop powered gates, lifting barriers, CCTV mounts and operator stations. Building services engineers can even turn to WDS when they develop heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems.

WDS is the UK’s leading manufacturer of standard parts for use in machine build components, standard parts, jigs & fixtures, and consumer products. The range of products available from WDS grows daily and so has the methods available to designers and engineers for identifying, specifying and purchasing any of the 20,000+ parts currently held in stock. For example, WDS has made ordering workholding solutions cheaper and quicker by removing small order surcharges.
