2flit 52 Posted October 23, 2021 Share Posted October 23, 2021 We're not familiar with the New Zealand suppliers. And We just heard from Cater Marine in Opua that they could not locate some types of Imperial Machine screws that we need a few hundred of... (In particular; 316 Stainless Pan Head Posi (Phillips) 1/4" X 2" NC Machine Screws... as well as a few others.) Do you have suggestions for a fastener company that carries a broad range of Imperial 316 Stainless Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Black Panther 1,593 Posted October 23, 2021 Share Posted October 23, 2021 I prefer my screws to be self-effacing. I'm sure someone here can help. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Terry B 71 Posted October 23, 2021 Share Posted October 23, 2021 Also Fortress Fasteners in Rosebank Rd, Avondale (very close to Anzor store). They have a pretty good website Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Starting to think they are not available in NZ. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Advark, Thanks for doing that; I just checked in Australia StainlessFastener.com.au ... The first hit on Google with a Pan Head Phillips 1/4" x 2" NC in 316 Stainless (posi is not made anymore according to this Company) $0.58 each (BTW Cater Marine had slotted head at $4.00/each) 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
2flit 52 Posted November 10, 2021 Author Share Posted November 10, 2021 In case it's of any use to someone searching for Imperial 316 Stainless,... The best source I found was Ausstain https://www.austain.com.au/ Family owned since 1977, they have good contacts and do not source from China (mostly from known sources with a good history in Taiwan) The 1-1/4 x 2" were $27 AUS$ per hundred. I think they supply other suppliers. Friendly and knowledgeable And Cater's inital price estimate came way down on these for the slot-head style. Cater are great folks. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
