Nuts and bolts

[caterham_lad]

Hi all.... looking to m4 to m12 nuts bolts and washers. Also want about 8 of each size... anyone know where I can buy small quantities of these?

[Butter Face]

eBay?

[Willy Nilly]

A town local to you will have a place on an industrial estate that sells more fasteners than you can ever imagine.

[Oldandslow]

Yes to Ebay. Many sellers offering small numbers of nuts and bolts in various sizes and specs. You're paying over the odds per bolt but best solution if you only need small numbers.

BAPP!

Depends where you are. Here in Leicester, All Screwed Up is the place to go, for example.

Any Wurth in the neighbourhood?

What are they for? As if it is for something structural you will need something stronger than your usual Screwfix bolt.

That's taking laziness to whole new level isn't it, I'm wondering how you get out of bed in the morning?

Anyone know where I can get a 1 litre bottle of milk?

Cavendish Road. Used them for years. I use them a lot for stainless steel nuts,bolt etc for the boat. If you want 1 washer they will sell you 1 washer.

I ahd this problem last week I wanted an M5 nut for a starter motor thats all
nobody non of the motor factors ,tool shops or anybody sold them
I ended up asking a local digger workshop if they could help me and they sold me a handful for a couple of quid

It is getting more difficult to just buy curtain things in a hurry

You need to pull yourself together.

If the OP can stand the ignominy (Caterham-Lad) then Westfield Fasteners (internet) is a much better bet than the plastocene stuff you often end up with from EBay. They usually have all of the really odd stuff I sometimes need that my local bolt shop don't stock.

I know it's a strange option and I'm sure it'll get some rolled eyes but two choices if you are really stuck in the future, Clas Ohlson does packets of fasteners fairly cheap and big Wilkos do pick'n'mix fasteners for £1.99 a pot!

I wouldn't be putting brake calipers on with them but they are all stamped with ratings and may get someone out of a pinch if they only have the high street!
