    Source for bolts

     



    Anybody know of a source for what I'd call "button head" bolts for attaching spreader bars to a '32 frame?
    My spreader bars came with stainless hex head bolts, but I'd like to replace them with the "button head" style for a little bit of a cleaner look.
    I'm talking about the rounded head bolts (like a carriage bolt head) that has an allen head drive hole in it.
    Either stainless or chrome.
    Thanks,
    Randy

    Look for an indistrial fastener buisness in your area. They will usually carry name brand and/or reliable fasteners that you cannot rely on from the local hardware stores.

    We use Unbrako's in all our machinery. The brands mentioned above are good ones as well.
