squirrel_hunter Posted August 8, 2020 Report Share Posted August 8, 2020 So I need some bolts, Stainless Steel Button Heads in M5, M6, and M8 mostly in various lengths mostly plus a few nuts and other bits and pieces. I took a wonder up to my local supplier but due to the ol'virus they're only open to account customers and not walk in's like me. Fair enough I dont really buy that much, I'm looking at quantities of about 10 for each size, enough for my project plus some spares to keep in the garage, so not really worth going through the account set up process. I will miss their abuse though. My usual metal supplier offers some bolts but not what I need and in packs of 100 so its going to get expensive quick and I'll end up with a massive amount of fasteners that it will be unlikely I'd ever need. So where do I go for small quantity fasteners? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jollygiant Posted August 8, 2020 Report Share Posted August 8, 2020 This lot are pretty good and I tend to get most of my stuff from them and their postage is pretty fast. They are also on the Bay or E's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toneale Posted August 8, 2020 Report Share Posted August 8, 2020 I use Westfield Fastners loads if choice and will sell singular or any amount you like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lorenzo Posted August 8, 2020 Report Share Posted August 8, 2020 There's loads of sellers on ebay that'll do bags of 5, 10, 20, all different sizes and because there's so many, most of them have pretty competitive prices. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evilchicken0 Posted August 8, 2020 Report Share Posted August 8, 2020 I tend to use ebay, GWR fasteners usually arrive next or 2 day delivery. If you use "add to basket" you can make up a list, check it twice, then pay. I'm into Flange head bolts, and counter sunk allen heads with the wider washer makes a nice "feature" fixing.

They are also on the Bay or E's I've used them loads too, always good service. However I needed something on Monday that they didn't have, so ordered from here, primarily because it was the cheapest: https://ebay.co.uk/usr/high_grade_steel_1 Order placed @ 4:30 pm, dropped through the letterbox @ 9:30 am the next day!

squirrel_hunter Posted August 9, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2020 Thanks all for the suggestions. I've ended up placing an order with Accu. Not sure why I chose them as I looked at them all, just seamed an easier to use website. Anyway a box of bolts and such should now be on its way...
