Default Where to get BOLTS?

Hi All,

I'm having a hell of a time tracking down flat-head, Phillips, aluminum machine screws like we use for wing bolts. I need 1/4 X 20 and 10 X 24 in at least 1.5" length and preferably 2" in length. I've tried Micro Fasteners, Pacific Fasteners, Fastener Express, and Aluminum Fastener Supply. They all have flat-head, slotted but not Phillips.

Any ideas where I can find what I need?

Thanks,

How many do you need John??

Not sure where I got them, but I think I have about 10-20 of 2" 1/4 20s. I stopped using them because I have gone to all countsink wing bolts.

I'll check tonight, and send you a message.

These guys have everything. But, you usually need to buy fasteners by the box of 100 or so...

Hope this helps.

Dave,

I'll take as many of the 1/4 X 20 X 2" bolts that you're willing to part with as long as they're Aluminum, Phillips, Flat-Head screws. Do you have any 10 X 24s?

What do you want for them?

And what do you mean you've gone to countersunk bolts? By my definition, flat-head machine screws ARE countersunk heads.

Just so there's no confusion, look at the attached image. This is what I'm looking for only in aluminum.

Thanks very much!

I found something similar at McMaster-Carr. Only its stainless steel. I seriously doubt that you will ever find what you are looking for in aluminum.

Part Number 91802A550, $11.74 for box of 50 pcs.

The thing is, I know they exist because I have some now. I just need more of them. I believe I got these as set from Henry(?) Bartel more than six years ago. I was hoping to buy in quantity this time around.

Well, You got me!

I dont know of anyone else who may have such a thing... A long Google search session may be in order for you.

Good Luck

Default bolts

Hi There,
I know you are looking for aluminum, but we have been using these for years and I have probably sold no less the 20,000 to modelers. Go to WWW.LCSPERFORMANCE.COM and see what you think . They are real strong and 10 for $1
