Hmmmmmmmmmm........In this metricated world it is becoming increasingly difficult to source imperial fasteners. Specifically I was trying to get hold of some 1/4" BSF cheese headed steel (not the dreaded stainless) screws and have drawn a blank.
Does anyone know of a supplier that still stocks stuff like that or are we constrained to make them????????????????????????:confused:

Wade's List

I wonder if it is the same family? "Wade's List" contained (20 or 30 years ago) a vast range of fasteners, much of it the kind of aircraft jewelry that had cost pounds to manufacture, all for halfpennies.

Thank you to all who replied with suggestions. Bernie the Bolt had the screws that I required and they were received by me the following day; excellent service.:)
