Bolts for Awning Spreaders
« on: February 14, 2017, 02:20:20 PM »
I need half a doz of these bolts shown in the pic. I'm sort of Nth Brissie & wondering if a normal van place would stock them.
Hmm, just thought of Adam at Green RV whilst typing.

Bumblings should have them if not a local hardware or bolt place  mob .Caravan mobs will want to sell you the plastic fitting and screw complete more than likely ... .
 There just  gal slotted mushroom heads metal thread screws and wing nuts about  M6 size [ possible M4 ? ] by the look of it and 25mm to 30mm long or the AF equivellent  could be 1" 1/4  x  5/16 instead of 1/4 .

They're hex headed under the round head to stop them turning in the bracket.

You might find they are square under the domed head.   ;D
