Shops that sell grub screws???

NotGotABimmer23 · 12-08-2017, 02:14 PM

Any ideas? Need 2 10mm M6 cone grub screws, cannot find anywhere that sells them for the life of me. Based near Nuneaton if that helps.

I wasn't being flippant, honest (I placed a link). You must need them really urgently?

Screwfix sell a set of various sizes and they have a store stock checker. You Will pay over the odds for more than you need tho.

Yup, sold my mpe, guy collecting in the morning, just realised I can't find the grub screws which secure the tips.

Ordered some, might be here by 9.30-10.00am on a sat but I doubt it. My post man won't get to my house by that time if they are even in the post.

An auto parts store? Do they need to be grub screws as long as they can't be seen? What about IKEA or a kitchen fitter- they often use grub screws in hinges etc for adjusting them.

Grub screw?

Intercourse during the lunch break???

Sorry - a very old rag mag that one.

Make one?
Cut a slot with a junior hacksaw in the threaded end of a suitably sized bolt, then just cut to length.
Or just use a carefully cut bolt so the head is just touching the face if it can't be seen easily.

Found a little independent in Hinckley that had them.
