Nut / bolt supplier

[Garreth]

Have been searching for a supplier of small quantities of plated UNF nuts and bolts and found these guys -

Just a quick plug for them as they were very helpful and had everything I needed ! I'm restoring a car with an annoying array of UNF and metric fasteners, and never seem to want any more than about half a dozen of any particular size which makes buying in bulk difficult. I pinch all the metric stuff from work !!!!

I've used them in the past as well. I bought a couple of their selection bags and found that they were actually very useful selections, often these selections are the junk that the supplier can't get rid of anywhere else.

Only down side of the plated fasteners is that after a few years I found they developed a white covering on them. It comes off with a stiff brush but it's worth keeping in mind depending on what the project is.

When I was replacing fastners under Range Rover I brushed on Waxoyl once tightened, I keep a small jar with some in just for this.
