West Ham's brightest moment came in the 90th minute when substitute Javier Hernandez's shot cannoned off the underside of the bar, against the run of play following waves of relentless Arsenal attacks.
Arsenal forward Alex Iwobi hit the post in the first half and midfielder Jack Wilshere blasted over the bar from eight metres after the break as the visitors piled on the pressure and forced a flurry of desperate clearances by West Ham.
