The Threaded Fasteners Story

Founded in 1979 by brothers-in-law Frank Martin and Steve Sholtis, Threaded Fasteners Inc. (TFI) has grown from modest beginnings (one chop saw and one rigid pipe threader in a borrowed warehouse) to be one of the largest fastener and steel bolt distributors in the Southeast.

Some 13 years after opening the first location on Eslava Street, a second location was launched in Pensacola to better serve Florida-based customers. Our growth has remained strategic, opening new branches in cities where longtime clients operate. Our vision for the future includes opening more than 20 additional locations to better serve the global needs of our customers.

Made in Mobile, Ala., Threaded Fasteners Inc. operates a manufacturing plant in Semmes, Ala., where anchor bolts and specialty headed products are built by local crews on two-shifts to meet the growing demand for quality materials. A new business venture that displays our innovative spirit – Quality Galvanizing – was launched in March 2017 when ground was broken for the plant where TFI products will be galvanized against corrosion prior to packaging, sale and distribution.
