western Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 Don't know what length of bolts you require but go for 10.9 or higher on the tensile strength. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blz6662 Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 Try websites 'Boltmeup' or 'Namrick' - you can choose sizes, strength, length etc. at your leisure. Neither are the cheapest but if you need small quantities this should not be too bad. Also agree grade 10.9 min. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Green Bob Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 Do you not have a local fixings/fasteners place? I tend (like Mike) to use Teesside Industrial Fasteners and they have pretty much all you'll ever need for very little, occasionally free! Also auf_wiedersehen_pet, I like your avatar, it looks even better when it's lit up at night! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LandyManLuke Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 Use the yellow pages or yell.com to find your local place that will be under 'fasteners' or 'fixings' etc. They'll have nuts and bolts they'll sell in ones and twos, be very helpful and not charge the earth. The place local to me will prepare a list if I email them, or I can pop in on my lunch hour. They're open on Saturday mornings too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
