m14 studding/bolt source?
Hi all,
The bolt that holds on the drum of my cement mixer is damaged. It's an M14 bolt, about 10cm long, but M14 appears to be a odd size (M12 or M16, nothing in between) and I can't find anyone online or locally who stock these in small quantities. Alternatively, an M14 stud and nut would work equallywell. Does anyone know of any other source? I did wonder whether certain sizes of masonry shield anchor might contain an M14 bolt, but maybe they skip from M12 to M16 as well? thanks, dan. |

However, 10cm is rather long for a wheel bolt or stud. You should be able to get a local engineering workshop to make one up for you at a reasonable price. Just give them the old one as a pattern. |

We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the
drugs began to take hold. I remember tony sayer saying something like: Have a look at Mackays of Cambridge they have moist everything to do with nuts and bolts Bit of a turn on? |
