Looking for M7 Stainless Steel socket head bolts
My headstem uses plated steel M7 bolts (2 at each end) and I would
like to replace them with stainless steel bolts for corosion resistance. So far I have tried a few Melbourne bolt specialists and trawled the internet. The closest I have come to finding some is US online stores that don't ship internationally. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. |

M7 is not a standard metric size. You will be hard pushed to find
one off the shelf, chances you will have to get them machined. Even then there is no Australian Standard for M7 bolts. And also considering you want them in stainless, it will cost you a small fortune. If you want to avoid corrosion, why dont you use some/more grease? Jimbo Jones |

http://www.biketoolsetc.com/index.cg...gle&c=Repair-P arts&sc=Fasteners&tc=Socket-Head-Bolts&item_id=US-CS725 What length? That is the closest I have found (while looking afresh today). I am replacing 23mm & 17mm bolts so 25mm is OK for the longer ones, which are the ones currently showing corrosion in head socket. |

Thanks everyone for your suggestions (and in Bicycle Victoria Forums
and rec.bicycle.tech). I had no luck with the specialist bolt suppliers, so I have ordered from http://www.biketoolsetc.com and had them delivered to a US address. |
