Delivery or Click & Collect

Edcon Steel’s Series 500 self-drilling screws, also referred to as 5-series Tek screws, are high-performance fasteners designed to drill and tap through thick mild steel—up to 12 mm—without requiring pre-drilling. Featuring a hardened No. 5 drill point, fine thread profile, and flanged hex or countersunk heads, they deliver excellent pull-out strength and secure fastening, suited for structural assemblies, steel framing, HVAC, and fabrication applications. Available in versatile finishes—including Class 4 galvanised and stainless steel—these screws balance robustness and corrosion resistance, ideal for both indoor and harsh environments

Great business to deal with. They are happy to cut me whatever short lengths I need and post or courier to me out in the middle of nowhere. AAA+++

Mal Birrell

Edcon Steel is a convenient, transparent way to buy steel. They have a wide range of alloys and sizes. For the needs of Plithos Renewables, Stainless Steel 316 was the go-to and parts could be cut to length. It is very easy to do business with Edcon Steel.

Plithos Renewables

Competitive pricing, great customer service by ALL staff members, return claims handled professionally without any 'Ifs' or 'buts'. Very friendly. They are raising the bar to a new standard in Australian retail customer service.
