Screws

[UlyssesQ]

Hello there, I'm new in this forum, I just wanted to know where to get the screws often used in engine modeling (mainly the long ones used to secure the endings of the cylinders, for example) I don't even know how they are called, so I cannot look them up at all. How expensive are they? I would really appreciate any information you can give me on this topic. Thank you very much for your time!

If you want hex hds then you have to buy them from model engineer supplies
If you can use metric then hex sock cap,csk,grub and button hd can be bought
at any fastener supplier.Buy a
model engineering magazine to find suppliers.Use all threaded rod to make long ones or studs with nuts on the end etc.If your new to engineering then
there are hundreds of different fasteners and materials.Will try to advise further if you are more specific with sizes etc Regards barry

I get them in a place on Rutlad avenue, that could be a 1/2 mile or 13,000 mile from you. Can not help unless we know roughly where you are.
