[QUOTE="Buddy, post: 186063, member: 9317"] All this time I have been referring to these bolt markings as "8", but I think it does look just like a hog nose, so okay then I need some 6 mm hog nose bolts. Speaking of plating disasters, I've had this hardware zinc plated once already and the zinc on most of the parts was chipped exposing bare steel, some of the parts the zinc was flaking off. Some of the bolts never made it back to me and a few were pitted and actually looked worse. So, in summary my 6 mm hog nose bolt shortage is because most that I'm missing never made it back and a few that were pitted looked really bad after plating. allenp42 I wish I had a surplus of any of the 6 mm bolts, unfortunately I do not, sorry. More than a few of your 6 mm bolts look like they may plate well and a few not so much, thank you for offering. I will get back in touch with you once I see what kirrbby has. Here is an example of some of the bolts I have. [ATTACH=full]65666[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
