I never knew you had to use these and so just used the standard mini bolts with metro 4-pots for years with no problems.

Try a local iron mongers and get the bolts for a manner of pence! or re thread hubs for more readily available metric thread bolts.
Whats going to break next!?

re thread hubs for more readily available metric thread bolts. i read somewere this is a bad idea, and i agree, theres a lot of force on them i wouldent like to trust a reathreaded hole if i can avoid it, personally. and i know a certain someone that had 4 pots with standard bolts and they fell off. TWICE! |
