Default Need long SS bolts

Does anyone know where I could get 5/16 coarse stainless steel bolts that are 7.5" long, without paying through the nose? Either hex head or cap screw are fine.

Thanks,

Tom

check the yellow pages in your area under fasteners, it should give you a few names of "bolt dealers that can order them 4 you

I would always use McMaster Carr for stuff like that.

Would a threaded rod work for your aplication? That should be a easy find

tomcat,
For stainless hardware try the S B Simpson Group 905 844-3371. I take it you already spoke to Brafasco.

Thanks all for comments. The cheapest way seems to be threaded rod, but I could also use an aluminum coupler of 6.75" threaded for short bolts on either end. Don't know where to get them do you??
