Primarily Petroliana Shop Talk Forums Shop Talk Petroliana Forums General Petroliana Discussion looking for Internet source for old style bolts

Is anyone aware of a company that sells antique style bolts and nuts, for restoration projects. Such as brass bolts, dome head bolts, bolt heads with no markings, etc, etc. I would prefer a company that is on the internet. Thanks.

I have found a lot of the brass screws, bolts, acorn nuts, etc. are available from companies specializing in nautical hardware.
You can go into Thomas Register and locate the various companies, many of which have online catalogs. Although much of the hardware is sold in bulk, I have found that when I call and explain what I am using it for, they are willing to sell in smaller quantities.

I am having trouble locating the correct face to computer machine screws that are slot head rather than phillips. Anyone have a source ?
thanks

Larry,
Try McMaster-Carr Supply Company.(www.mcmaster.com) Their catalog has several pages of various types of machine screws. Also here in San Diego we have an industrial hardware store that is an "Ace" store. They have a very large selection (five 50' isles) of nuts, bolts, etc. So if you have an Ace store near you they should be able to source it.

Good luck,
Ed
