I’m just after some advice as I’m looking to have a stock of self tapping screw and metal. Most would need to be an Inch or less and then some general washers.
 
try Warnhill Tools in Winsford. TEK screws come in bags of 200, various sizes. fantastically low prices. My first port of call for tools, aerosols, screws, silicon and such . etc.
 
I use the Orbix self drilling metal screws and find them very good indeed! I use their wood screws as well due to the large flat head on them, much better than countersink and allows for some adjustment.
We have a local merchant that does the hex head ones in light and heavy section that are great for commercial purposes!
For self tapping screws I keep an assortment tray I got from Halfords that nearly always has what I need!

I will have a look at them. I’ve found this site:

 
Where to buy and what to buy. Main use for them is fixing FP200 into metal using P Clips and also screws for Door Contacts as 1” 8 are too big.

I try to keep a selection of fasteners to cover most eventualities, but generally find when you need a particular fixing it'll be the one thing you don't have.

Some sort of organiser might be an idea as it can be topped up as necessary and much easier than rummaging through a box of allsorts.
