Bulk Star Picket 0.45m Medium (1.86 kg/m) Direct From Container
Best next step
Sourcing reliable, heavy-duty ground supports for civil works, formwork, or erosion control requires high-performance steel that doesn't blow your project budget. Purchasing our **bulk star picket 0.45m medium (1.86 kg/m) direct from container** stock ensures you bypass retail markups and receive high-tensile steel posts designed for tough Australian conditions. Perfect for surveying, concrete formwork pegging, and silt fence installations, these 450mm star droppers deliver optimal stability. We supply direct to civil contractors, developers, and agricultural specialists nationwide from our shipping containers to keep your overheads exceptionally low.
## Engineered for Tough Australian Civil and Construction Sites
These 450mm medium-duty steel posts are designed to withstand high impact during installation in compacted ground. Each post is manufactured from high-grade steel with a linear weight density of 1.86 kg per metre (approximately 0.84 kg per 450mm post), offering the perfect balance between transport weight and structural strength.
Our black bitumen star picket range features a deep, baked-on bitumen coating. This barrier prevents moisture, acidic soils, and concrete run-off from attacking the raw steel underneath, reducing the risk of premature rust. Pre-punched holes are aligned down the spine to allow rapid securing of barrier mesh, tie wire, silt fencing fabric, or standard wire lines without needing specialised tooling on site.
## Optimise Project Budgets with Container-Direct Wholesale Pricing
When managing tight job margins for major sub-divisions, roadworks, or commercial building sites, every dollar spent on temporary fencing supplies impacts your bottom line. Buying wholesale steel fence posts by the sling or pallet means you pay actual trade prices.
By unloading stock directly from incoming shipping containers, we strip out expensive distribution channels and warehouse storage overheads. We pass these savings directly to you, making it highly economical to stock up your yard or site compound with the 0.45m medium posts required for continuous daily rotation and high-use civil site setups.
## Frequently Asked Questions
### What are the main uses for a 0.45m medium star picket?
These short 450mm droppers are primarily used by concreters for anchoring timber or steel formwork, by civil contractors for securing sediment control silt barriers, and by surveyors or earthmovers as heavy-duty site markers and boundary pins.
### How does the bitumen coating compare to galvanised finishes for short-term use?
Our black bitumen baked coating provides exceptional structural protection at a lower price point than hot-dip galvanised alternatives. For temporary civil works, formwork, and silt fencing, bitumen-coated posts are highly cost-effective and fully reusable across multiple projects.

Our 0.45m star droppers are bundled in convenient packs of 10 for easy handling, with main shipping slings containing bulk quantities ready for forklift unloading and direct transport to your job site.
