Tradition, Precision and Partnership – Since 1948
For more than seven decades, our family-owned company stood for uncompromising quality, reliability and continuity in the field of fastening solutions. Since our founding in 1948, Güde has earned international recognition as a trusted manufacturer of spring washers and a broad range of precision-engineered connecting elements.
Looking ahead, we are pleased to once again participate as an exhibitor at InnoTrans 2026 in Berlin (Hall 25, Booth #170). Our first appearance two years ago was a significant milestone for our company. Presenting Güde alongside the major players of the industry at the world’s leading trade fair for railway technology was both impressive in scale and a moment of pride for our team. With decades of expertise in the railway sector, we are well prepared to showcase our capabilities and continue strengthening our position within this highly specialised market.
Since 2010, Güde GmbH has been an approved supplier of Deutsche Bahn AG for sperrkant spring washers (BN 208 012) and sperrkant washers (BN 208 010) – a milestone that marked the beginning of our long-term success in the railway sector. Over the past 16 years, we have continuously expanded our expertise, strengthened our partnerships, and proven our reliability in countless national and international rail projects. In 2025, we achieved another important qualification milestone: Güde received the HPQ approval of Deutsche Bahn for railway superstructure spring washers (e.g. FE6 Iog 30.7000, FE 7 Iotkv 4a, FE15 Iotkv 14 , FE19 Iotk 114), further underscoring our technical competence and our commitment to meeting the highest safety and documentation standards in railway infrastructure.
Our customers have trusted us for decades, and we continue to support them with a strong portfolio of railway-specific fastening solutions – all manufactured with precision, consistency and deep material expertise. This combination of technical know-how and long-standing industry experience positions us as a reliable partner for both vehicle and infrastructure applications.
Even as global challenges intensify – including evolving regulatory frameworks such as CBAM – we remain confident in our ability to adapt and continue delivering excellence. Our long-standing commitment to quality, flexibility, rapidity and reliability forms the foundation of our success. These principles are the reason we are able to supply more than 2.7 billion components per year worldwide, and they continue to guide our actions as we navigate an increasingly complex and dynamic market environment.
Trust in Güde, many others do.
