Standard, special fasteners and overhead line products manufacturer Tel-Screw, which was established in 1970, is equipped to do all types of bending and forming. The company’s capabilities include cold heading, hot forging, thread rolling, screw cutting, hot bending, cold bending, automatic machining, computer numerically controlled (CNC) machining, toolroom facilities, milling, robotic welding, pressings, guillotining and light fabricating. The company’s CNC machining section was recently upgraded with a bar feed CNC machine for mass- produced turned components.

The company is situated at 25 Lorna road, Muswelldale, Boksburg North, and is located on 10 000 m2 of land, of which 8 000 m2 is under cover, with two 20 t weigh bridges to monitor incoming raw material. Tel-Screw is 60%-owned by The Bolt Business Trust and 40%-owned by The Tram Trust and has a yearly turnover of R60-million.

Further Tel-Screw, which is ISO 9001:2008-compliant, has an order book of R12-million and employs 160 people. The company is currently working on several contracts, one of which is for Eskom, as well as other short-term automotive supply contracts and the supply of mining consumables, also on a short-term basis.

Tel-Screw has also commissioned its own wire processing plant to address the increasing demand in its cold heading department. To improve energy efficiency, the company is in the process of upgrading its induction heating facility with state-of-the-art technology for the forging department. This has led to a 30% increase in plant efficiency over the last two years.

As a South African manufacturer, the company feels responsible for the promotion of local employment. It prioritises keeping it local and encourages its clients to buy from local manufacturers. It is a proudly South African manufacturing company.
