Re: Door Hinge bolt

A standard bolt head is taller than the factory hinge bolt's heads.

Normally you can find the SAE / fine thread bolts at ACE in the drawers above the regular bolt cabinets but will probably get a lot better price at Fastenal or another fastener or a hardware store that caters to commercial accounts. There is a kind of a hole in the wall hardware store about 20 miles from me that has a serious bolt supply at friendly prices. I've been hitting Fastenal for more of the bolts I need outside of the grade 5 I can buy bulk at ACE or get from the machine shop in town.

Cat equipment dealers have a serous supply of grade eight bolts at reasonable prices.
