Wanted: M4 x 40mm Hex bolts x 2

Luxman

Hello, Wondering if anyone has 2 of the above laying around looking for a new home. Need to attach a faceplate mount for a Wahoo. Cheers

You should be able to buy these new, individually for a euro or two in total. Get stainless to avoid corrosion.

I've got them here before as they are local to me

Literally any hardware store should stock these. If, on the off chance your local hardware doesn't have them, I should probably have a few lying around. They are not proprietary or anything, they're used in loads of applications.


Edited to add: just had look there, the only thing I have in that size is a pan head screw, no button head. Your's if you want them

Thanks for the offer. I would prefer the hex (Allen key)head version. My local shop doesn’t have them.

Did you try woodies?

Luxman

Alas my nearest Woodies is 12km away

Screwfix, whilst British, have loads of stores in Ireland, so at least do provide some jobs to the Irish economy.

Order off online site - wait a week no goods arrive - ring them no answer - email them four days later they reply and it’s out of stock but should be in stock in three weeks.
Yea Irish sellers are a winner.

Screwfix are in Ireland. I use the one in Kilkenny quite a bit because they have a comprehensive up to date online shop with fast delivery.

A world of stainless fasteners and a good independent seller based in Ireland. No connection to them personally but have bought from them in the past.

Forgot about radionics! I use them frequently when ordering for work! If I order by 3pm the courier is there by 9am! Never fails.

I've never used them, but having browsed their stock list I certainly will in the future

Radionics are always a trustworthy next day supplier but in regards Luxman, I probably have a few in the office, remind me tomorrow and Ill throw them in the post FOC if they are there.

Luxman

Thanks Cram. I only need two and the recommendations of suppliers seem to provide in bulk quantities. If you have some I will pm my address. Many thanks again

I'm fairy certain I have some of these knocking about. Are you sure they're M4 you're after though I think they're bigger than that.

I'll look tomorrow if Cram has no joy but I'd check the size you need.

Luxman

I’ve measured the length as 40mm. They are standard stem faceplate bolts however. I just need them 20mm longer than “normal “ ones

Sorry, no M4s, M5s are the closest I have

I honestly think they're m5 bolts you're looking for but I'll grab some tomorrow and send out a few of either if I have them.

Luxman

I do stand corrected, I removed existing bolt and it measure M5 (diameter). My apologies for the goose chase.

and do they have to be 4cm? I'll measure the ones in the office tomorrow and post them out if suitable

Luxman

Yeah they have to be 4cm long. The mount uses spacers to push it forward so the wahoo can be seen��

Sorry no luck 20mm is the longest I have,
