Online Vendor for Bolts & Hardware
 

Any suggestions for an online vendor selling bolts, nuts, screws, etc? I needed a couple of 5/16" sheet metal screws, and that's just too large of a size for my local Home Depot or AutoZone to sell. I'm sure that I could buy a small quantity at a higher price from Summit or Jegs, but I was curious if there is an online vendor that sells items like these in bulk. Thanks.

Yep, McMaster is one of the greatest things I've found for my restoration/modification project. It doesn't matter how random the bolt, they probably have it. Prices are really good on the big size hardware compared to local sources too (ie Body mount bolts, etc)

Can anybody set up an account with them?

Yep order a couple bolts all the time, shipping is really reasonable as well with them.

no need for account. just add to cart and click and pay!

A trick to Mcmaster is searching. Sometimes searching things in different order yields different results. I have found if I can't find a certain size in a bolt, research and click on the filters in different order will *sometimes* yield different results. Mcmaster is a very powerful tool to find darn near anything one might need!

Thanks guys ..... I hadn't even thought of McMaster Carr. I bought a few things from them 20 years ago. I poked around on their website today and will make an order soon. Thanks again!!!!

I have a McMaster-Carr catalog at work... you could kill somebody with it. :lol:

That's nuts.:rolleyes:

They would kill you if they knew you had it. LOL
Those are like gold.
My friends wife works in accounts payable and she couldn't even get me a current one. I have a 2 year old one thats fine for part #'s but pricing is off. Those are for the elite "who's who" in the industry.
Once in a while you can find an older version on Ebay.
