I need to source 90 of 9/16 UNC flush headed countersunk bolts/screws
overall length 2" and 10 of the same but overall length 2.5"

It doesn't matter what type of drive they have and preferrably threaded
the whole way, I could live with 1/2" unthreaded shank.
Any more than that I guess would be acceptable, just a lot of thread
cutting for me to do....

Anybody help, I have run out of ideas...

I don't see flat-head, but regular old Allen head cap screws, 9/16-12,
in these lengths are available at McMaster-Carr; you'll just have
to countersink with an end mill. And take out a second mortgage.

Neither Holo-Krome nor Unbrako lists 9/16" flat head socket. You may
be out of luck as far as a standard product goes.

Lots of options in hex head at McMaster, but no flathead. You could call
McM, they have a good reputation for locating odd stuff. I presume you
don't have the option of a more common thread size or perhaps
counterboring to fit a recessed hex head?

If could accept 5/8" options open way up...either flush flat screws or
perhaps a flat plow bolt if can broach a square hole.

9/16" just isn't all that common--suppose they could be found if dug
deep enough, but sure not much choice off the shelf I'd think...

Errr.. 9/16 - 12 and 9/16 - 18 are both standard sizes. Tap drill
sizes are 31/64" and 33/64". Or at least that is what two different
tap drill charts tell me.

Can you use a piloted counterbore to replace the taper countersink with
a counterbore for a hex head? Perhaps turn some custom washers to fit
the taper countersink and provide a bearing surface for a hex head bolt?

What were they...were they actually 9/16" or since you're in UK were
they metric?

A search at the following looks like at least some candidates...

https://www.fastenersclearinghouse.com/fch/main.nsf

/fSearch?OpenForm&Start=1&type=R&Cat1=PRM460D65E028 14;&

Cat2=FLD84BFEAD585;&Cat3=PRMF77108363215;&Cat4=&Ca t5=M14&Cat6=&Cat7=


Don't know about local distributors...

A search from a couple UK online places found the 1/2" and 5/8"
equivalents of 12 and 16 but nothing in 9/16"/M14.

As noted above, if can go to either eighth the possibilities then abound
but while as noted by others 9/16" is in the Standards lists, it surely
isn't commonly used...hence isn't much on hand in stock at retail.

I had suggested that as a possibility earlier, too, but again it's
unlikely to find one in 9/16" (and he'd have to round the corners or
broach a square hole). 1/2 and 5/8, no problem; 9/16 is a pretty rara
avis (I don't recall ever seeing one on anything). 7/16, otoh is fairly
common on farm equipment as the difference in cross-sectional area
(hence strength) of (7/6)^2 is 35% whereas all the way to half from 3/8
is nearly double and that is often overkill. OTOH, the difference
between half and 5/8 is a little 50% which isn't so bad and so it
rarely (as in never) is fine-tuned to the point of specifying 9/16.

Ask a hardware store guy or truck stop mechanic where they source

Did you actually go to their web site and find an actual 9/16 part in any length? Didn't think so.

When your customers point out the fact that you've done inadequate research, do you call them mentally ill?

No wonder they're all going out of business.

Seems to me that you're one of the two people in this part of the thread who can actually read. Congratulations.

I need to source 90 of 9/16 UNC flush headed countersunk

Any more than that I guess would be acceptable, just a lot of

Anybody help, I have run out of ideas...

You didn't mention where you are or where you've looked (of course
sigh) so I'll just say...

"Check with local fastener houses. Around So Or, it's Sasco.
http://www.sascofasteners.com/ . If your local distributor doesn't
stock them, they can find them for you and it will cost you 1/3 to
1/10 of what it would cost at hardware stores. Barring that, googlit.
Good luck!"

joy yet, I am rebuilding a very big old safe
and I had to drill out all the original bolts, thanks for your input.

Have you tried to measure the thread pitch? Presumably you've got a
couple inches of one to measure.

2mm (12.7 TPI) and it's probably M14

http://www.mandsfastener.com/M14-Fla...-dia_p_92.html

Imperial units it could be a lot of different pitches
http://www.efunda.com/designstandard...=64&finish=147

Screw Thread Designations per ANSI/ASME B1.1
UN = Unified National Fixed Pitch Series
UNC = Unified National Coarse Series
UNF = Unified National Fine Series
UNEF = Unified National Extra Fine Series
UNS = Unified National Special

but probably 12 (UNC) or 18 (UNF). 12 could be BSW as well, AFAIUI.

Can you find hex heads?

Perhaps you could turn the heads to match the countersink angle is and
drill two holes in the head for a pin spanner. The pin spanner wrench
could be bent from welding rod.

I'd drill the holes first, by eye in a drill press to speed the job.
