Cheers, just contacted him. I need to ring back later so fingers crossed.
I had a look on ebay and did a google search. They seem to do them but they are all too long. I suppose you would have to specify the correct size you want and have them custom made at the right length.
Has anyone gone through haveing this sort of thing made up before?

Be careful as they are not a unc or metric thread;  I did have what they are but can't find it at the moment  :tickedoff:.  There are a few places online like www.stagonset.co.uk that do them to order.

I think they are either UNF thread or US imperial. Definitely not Metric, as I tried them already. They are equivalent to M4 x 10mm but different thread.

I was meant to be getting a 100 from our nut and bolt supplier but he has gone quiet recently. Going to see him at lunch time so will check what they are, how much and when. :daumenhoch:

I'll ask my mate that measured them up for me but it might take a while to get a reply as he's slow to respond to emails and there's a 9 hour time difference between where I am and where he is  :D

Aparently its an M4 .5 pitch which my local fixing company dont stock and can only get in a box of 1000 so thats why they have held off

Am waiting for our other supplier to come back to me now and will report back later :daumenhoch:
