Tabs and spacers are the parts nobody wants to cut by hand. Weld-on tabs for fixing panels, cables or guards; lugs with a hole for pins and shackles (to your design); spacer and packing plates to bring a joint up to level; and end plates to cap box section.
We nest them on the plasma table so a batch comes off consistent, with holes in the same place on every part. Order a few for a one-off job or a few hundred for a production run.
Specify what you need
Give us the outline (rectangular, round-ended, square or custom), thickness, material, hole size and position, and quantity. For lifting lugs or any part used to lift loads, the design and any required testing must be specified by a competent person — we cut to your drawing.

How to order
Send your drawing (DXF, DWG or PDF) or a dimensioned sketch with the material, thickness and quantity. We'll check it, ask about anything unclear, and reply with a price and lead time. Once approved, parts are made in our Knowsley workshop for collection or UK delivery.
Questions we're often asked
Is there a minimum order?
No fixed minimum, but small parts are most economical when cut in batches.
Can you cut thin shims?
Very thin shims may be better suited to shearing or laser. Tell us the thickness and we'll advise.
