UNF Fasteners

Gentlemen,

I've just spent the morning removing the front brake cylinders of my 1969 Bedford CA Camper to replace with new units ready for an MOT, unfortunately some of the 1/4 UNF bolts have been necked and one sheared when I was fitting a new cylinder. Does anybody know of suppliers in the Bedford area who would stock 1/4 UNF x

9/16 long Hex Head set screws.

Thanks,

Martin P

They don't seem to do them in lengths of 9/16", but that is easily sorted on a lathe or even with a saw and some judicious filing.

You could try something like an agricultural engineers. Over here in St Neots (not too far from you) we have Ibbetts in Great Paxton (Mon - Fri and Sat AM only). Very good for things like grease nipples etc ...

Thanks for that...I was looking for some 3/8 UNF stainless or brass and they have just what I want!

(Nothing to do with cars, classic or otherwise...)
