zardos Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 anyone got a good web address of suppliers nuts bolts and other fasteners? I use http://www.orbitalfasteners.co.uk/ but that is because they are local and you can pick up an internet order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simonr Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 Talk to Mike or Oliver at Connect2. They are a small company, but have managed to beat Screwfix and Winzur Wurth on both price and quality. They now supply all the nuts & bolts for X-Eng kits and have been bloody good! They have a shop near Horsham but offer mail order as well. If you speak to James - ask for Mike or Oliver - they are more knowledgable and give better prices! Si Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UdderlyOffroad Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 I know you asked for a web-address, but longer term it's definitely worth finding someone good locally, usually an agricultural supplier will keep most sizes in stock. It's painful to have to stop a job half-way through because you need some odd-size bolt or nut. G R Fasteners in Avonmouth, in case anyone's reading this is this Bristol area. Might be a bit far from Glasgow though. Failing that as has been said Screwfix and Toolstation are reasonable on price and delivery is usually free...

rebel_eddie Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 I always use Quality Supplies in Walton on Thames I have used them for years and they've never let me down. What they don't know is not worth knowing. http://www.quality-suppliers.com Hopefully this can help a lot of people and thank them a little.

FridgeFreezer Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 Another vote for Namrick here, their selection party-packs are very handy. Screwfix are very good when you just want a bucket of 100 of something cheap & popular. Aside from that, I'd track down your local nut-n-bolt shop and put some trade their way, sometimes you need to be able to wander into a shop with an unidentified bit and walk out 5 minutes later with a pocket full of new ones to avoid a wasted weekend.

Boris113 Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 I used to use screwfix, they are cheap and have quick delivery. Try a place called Cotswold fasteners, they are a big mail order set up and are very cheap. I don't know if they have a website though, I go to their outlet as it's only a few miles away.

tacr2man Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 You should be able to find engineers suppliers near you , will save a fortune on postage, and convenient for odd shortages. Use online eg ebay for specials eg csk stainless etc . JMHE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
