    Short of buying a bag off eBay, where do you reckon I'd get a "countersunk M6 bolt washer" in a hardware store in Dublin?
    Bolt popped out of my Deda seatpost last weekend. Twin bolt system so I about turned out in Bray and cycled gingerly home with a mobile saddle.
    Maybe that tool shop on Capel St.?

    Try All Metal Fasteners or Tucks in Finglas.

    Lenehans on Capel St do not have the greatest selection of washers imho. Try Chadwicks on Thomas St:

    Sounds like you need the bolt, NOT a washer. A countersunk bolt usually fits into a countersunk shaped hole so no washer required?

    If so you're looking for an M6 bolt. Any M6 bolt of the right length will do and a countersunk one would presumably fit better.

    Have a spare M6 35mm which I used to engage the rail attachment. Since the other rail attachment uses a countersunk washer I thought I'd better get one. On phone so cannot post pics.

    What is the outside diameter or does it matter in your case.I have some with OD 18 mm and just cos I know you I will post them today. Otherwise they are used a lot by cabinetmakers and kitchen fitters so the panelling centre Ritchmond Rd Drumcondra if it is still there.
