Where to find

[nboy22]

I am trying to find a local place here in Tempe/Phoenix that would sell an M6-thread bolt that is 3 inches in length.. I've already been to Home Depot and they didn't really have anything close to it..

Is there another local store I should try? This is for getting a flywheel off of a 2 stroke motor.

Auto parts store.

Damnn.. I was thinking about checking out autozone too. I just didn't think they would carry hardware like this.

Tons of industrial supply stores. Fastenal's one of them.

Pro tip: An M6 bolt won't come in a 3" length, but it might come in 75 mm.

Also, your sig sucks.

There is a monoprice-like website for this kind of stuff. I recall it being mentioned on ATOT before.

If this isn't something you need over the 3 day weekend, there are undoubtedly specialty fastener shops there as well.

What you seek doesn't sound that unusual, but the thread pitch and threads per inch (mm, whatever) may pose a problem. If it's just a run-of-the-mill 6mm bolt, they should be EASY to find.

used to be a place on mill ave., Tempe hardware, been there since 1902 or so, if they didnt have it, it wasnt made type of place. if they are still in biz they would have it.

Thanks for all the replies.. I would like to get it over the weekend, simply to keep me busy with something. I will check with Tempe hardware and Fastenals.

Yeah I've ordered a few things from mcmaster carr. I was looking for something in-town so I could get it this weekend.. Sucks because it looks like fastenal is only mon-fri.
