If you want a good bolt that you don't have to ever worry about then go here=
:
http://www.coastfab.com
The AN or NAS bolts are used in the aviation industry, each one is inspected=
and top quality. The best feature is that the shank (portion under the head=
that is not threaded) is available in any length in increments of .063" (1/=
16"). You never have the threads in shear. The AN washers are available in .=
063" and .032" thickness and there are nyloc nuts and mechanical lock nuts.=20=
They are more expensive but no better quality available. You can buy 1 bolt o=
r quantity.=20
The web site explains in detail. Good folks to deal with.
