Source of BA Hex Stock

[Sub MandrelParticipant @submandrel]

Most of the usual supsect don’t seem to do BA fixings, and the cost of BA screws seems to vary a lot between suppliers. Any suggestions for a good source for bags of 50-100 fixings?

 

I’ve already spotted EKP and Reeves 2000, but I’m sure I’ve come across others.

 

Also, any suggestions for 8 or 10BA hex stock?

Stub,

 

Try South Essex Fasteners in Southend , Essex (t.n. 01702 615326)

They stock down to 10 BA in machine screws and to 6 BA in HT setscrews.

Received their  latest catalogue yesterday.

 

Also FolkstoneEngineering Supplies  do St. St. hex down to 0.156″ A/F & BMS Hex down to 0.131″ A/F.
