stainless allens

Does anybody make kits with Torx heads ? I have had less problems with those than Allen heads.

Kit.... I doubt it. Might check McMaster Carr and see if they carry torx. You could order them individually.

Bolts

http://boltdepot.com
Order any quantity you want. Cheaper than hardware stores. Reasonable shipping costs, and they ship fast.

http://mcmaster.com

Cheapest per piece price if you want a lot of leftovers for your obsessively organized collection of stainless metric allen head stuff...(who, me?) everything comes in larger quantities, usually 50 or 100. Look for "socket head cap screws." McMaster-Carr has lots of other oddball stuff, too.

Hi Mr. bwringer,

Did you use one of mcmaster's bolt kits? Possibly the Metric 18-8 Stainless Steel Standard Socket Head (240 Piece) kit, part# 92540A111?


Thank you for your indulgence,

BassCliff

If u REALLY wanna be special, go to www.mcfeeleys.com and get soem stainless metric square drive screws. They take a special square drive socket, and I've used them for years in my outdoor furnituremaking endeavours. They won't rust, dont strip out like philips, and are theft resistant cuz not many people have the square drive bit, or even know what one looks like.

I know this is an old post, but I was trying to find out about the difference between 316 and 304 satinless. This entry made me laugh to tears "Special square drive socket". I will be using that.

What's so funny?

that "special square-drive socket" is actually a Robertson drive system.

Did you look at the link in the post just above yours?

Sorry, I am from Canada, where the Robertson screw was invented and used on almost anything Canadian made. I've never heard it called a "square drive", that's all. I've told a few of my friends up here and they all got a chuckle out of it too.

It would be like calling the phillips head an "X Drive", that's all.
