Studding and Blots needed for lid

[AndyF]

Hi all,

I've been asked by DCA to fit a new lid to Waterways swallet as per the access agreement, and although Ive got a nice bat friendly grill I need a couple of short lenghts of studding and bolts to fit it.

It wont be locked, will just need a spanner to get in (before anyone moans  )

What I'm after is two or three 6 inch lengths of about M25 thread studs and matching bolts, ideally in Stainless as this place gets very wet, very often. Anyone got any lying around ..... Quite happy to pay, just havent be able to get anything locally shorter than a meter....and that cost ??????

They'll end up epoxyed into concrete.

Would 20mm do the job ? if not the next size i have is 30mm, both in stainless
Next thing if you use stainless stud bar its not wise to use stainless  nuts use a disimular metal i.e brass or mild steel
otherwise the stainless nuts will sieze up

I think I've got a couple of 20mm ss resin bolts, left over from the Whalf shaft repair. Don't think there's any nuts though - they're in the shed. I'll have a look tommorrow when it's light, if they're any use.

I think 20mm should be ok.....

Thanks TPot for the advise about mild steel nuts, I hadnt though of that.

Talk about spoiled! Even found you a couple compleat with nuts.
PM me so we can arrange to get them to you.
BTW, 20mm is what I normaly use for the same job.
