I often make purchases from agri outlets. Don’t go to the ‘computerised’ spare parts desk as your first choice – many smaller, local agricultural engineers are often a better bet. Many bods behind those ‘parts computers’ are just that – computer bods.

I am lucky in that a friend runs an agri-business and I help him out occasionally.🙂. He buys in lubricants, anti-freeze, batteries, etc in larger sizes/numbers.

Hi there, all,

As I've often mentioned on this forum, I get my ISO 30 oil from my local agricutural engineers' for lubrication of my ML7.

Best regards,

Swarf, Mostly!

I got a nice 7 foot 5-bar gate with uprights, anchor bolts, hinges and furniture from a local agricultural supplier for about 1/3 the price posh sidegate companies wanted.

I wanted pull-cord door-stays for my internal door to the garage, and got them from an agri supplier – you'd never find 'em at B&Q or any DIY chain.
