Correct sized allen bolts

(1/4) > >>

Anyone know the correct size for allen bolts on a Western H Hutch stem? I've got the oxidized black ones, but I'm building a pink Trickstar and want some stainless steel ones. My local DIY shops don't sell 'em. Once I get the metric size I'll order them off Ebay. Thanks.

They prob aint metric being from the USofA. They might be 1/4 inch UNC or summin? imperial sizes are confusin  :crazy2:

Its a massive pain I can't believe its so difficult to match 'em up. The metric size are all over Ebay, but I don't know if they are M6, M7 or M8. Argggghhhhh!!

theRuler:
M8 usually!

bewarethefox:
I was thinking it was normally M8 but wasn't sure, thats why I posted it here. THANKS!! Now just got to check whether its length is 25,30 or 35!
