Need long SS bolts
 

Does anyone know where I could get 5/16 coarse stainless steel bolts that are 7.5" long, without paying through the nose? Either hex head or cap screw are fine.

Thanks,

Tom

did you try a good hardware store, some of them have stainless threaded rod

check the yellow pages in your area under fasteners, it should give you a few names of "bolt dealers that can order them 4 you

I would always use McMaster Carr for stuff like that.

Try these.

South coast stainless. There is no other! Excellent customer service, prompt delivery, friendly folks. Plus an excellent inventory.

Would a threaded rod work for your aplication? That should be a easy find

Do a search under stainless fasteners. The site is called www.stainless-fasteners.com

tomcat,
For stainless hardware try the S B Simpson Group 905 844-3371. I take it you already spoke to Brafasco.

Thanks all for comments. The cheapest way seems to be threaded rod, but I could also use an aluminum coupler of 6.75" threaded for short bolts on either end. Don't know where to get them do you??
