Long bolts

message from Graeme on 11 May 2004
I've looked and looked but I can't find a supply of 80mm M4 bolts. Anyone
know where I can get these?

That's long for such a small diameter. You'd get threaded rod easily
enough, though.
 
Graeme replied to Dave Plowman on 11 May 2004
I'd settle for threaded rod, but I can't find that less than M6. I must be
looking in the wrong place(s).

Try RS Componets. http://rswww.com Stock No 530-309

Trouble with RS is the minimum and postal charges. Not that I've ever
trouble getting above both. ;-)

don't you opt for the free delivery service
 
MBQ replied to Chris Oates on 12 May 2004
You need an RS account for that.

Thanks to all those that replied. I'm assuming this is per metre? [The
Anglian Fasteners web-site said that it was available in 1,2 & 3m lengths]

B&Q had it last time I looked. They also had plain steel rod in the
correct size to be threaded if you have the die.

My local corner shop stocks it for some bizarre reason, it's on a rack with
little packs of screws, washers, hairnets and nail clippers.
