( 7 / 16 ) 11 mm in diameter threaded bolts badly needed

[Ypedal]

for what application ?

thread type ?

nope, metric has different thread specs, you gotta know it. maybe you can put a collar in the middle and use bolts from each end into the collar to get the length you want, or does it have to screw into a threaded boss?

10 centimeters in length is a hair under 4-inches, right?

I will look at Fastenal and Graingers, since you already checked McMaster-Carr..

10mm are more common, you could get one and make sure it is go/no-go.

11mm is kinda off-beat... I do know, they are used on early watercooled vw cylinder heads. Those are long.

The thread pitch needs to be measured. (1, 1.25, 1.5 are common)



Pix would help significantly.

Any chance you could use a 10mm bolt and a spacer-sleeve from SDP-SI? or perhaps bore the wheel hole out to the next bigger size?

[TylerDurden]

If you haven't got a definite idea on the screw's size, you might take it to a bike-shop. They won't likely have the item, but they will likely be able to identify the specs.

Cant believe its that hard to find a metric bolt in the U.S
I was at Coventry Fastners 2 days ago, could of picked you
up any pitch metric bolt you wanted in either
high tensile steel and/or stainless steel Lemme know
