fandacious Posted April 9, 2009 Posted April 9, 2009 where can i get one of these. preferrable not sheared in half. 50mm long, 6mm wide and head takes a 6mm allen key
fandacious Posted April 9, 2009 Author Posted April 9, 2009 what exactly is a "nut and bolt place" ? builder warehouse? mica hardwarE?
pastapouch Posted April 9, 2009 Posted April 9, 2009 how do you break a seatclamp bolt? assuming you've been to the LBS, and no success there, next stop may be a company selling bolts and then an engineering company can turn you the thread in a lathe!
TNOSE_E Posted April 9, 2009 Posted April 9, 2009 Places that sell nuts bolts etc. Like Screwman, not sure if builders or mica will have cap screws, don't think so.
AndreZA Posted April 9, 2009 Posted April 9, 2009 sometimes it's cheaper just to replace the whole clamp.
pastapouch Posted April 9, 2009 Posted April 9, 2009 what exactly is a "nut and bolt place" ? builder warehouse? mica hardwarE? close to my home theres a place called Boltlock, and they have it all... there surely should be some place like that in Cape Town.
Dustbin Dog Posted April 9, 2009 Posted April 9, 2009 Yes I agree Mampara and that will include the correct grade bolt.

droo Posted April 9, 2009 Posted April 9, 2009 Topfast in Paarden Eiland. If it's a bolt, they got it.
fandacious Posted April 9, 2009 Author Posted April 9, 2009 thats quite a shlep from somerset west. just for a bolt
Sammajoor Posted April 9, 2009 Posted April 9, 2009 I did it too................ sometimes the tighten till it strips , and a half turn back does that
Overlord Posted April 9, 2009 Posted April 9, 2009 Are you sure its a 6mm key? If you can make sure I might have some here at home. Can give one to Slowbee on Friday that he can take to Somerset-West for you.
Weekend_Warrior Posted April 9, 2009 Posted April 9, 2009 thats quite a shlep from somerset west. just for a bolt Hey Fandacious you can try West Engeneering Co in Strand Main Road and if that fails drop it off at my office in Strand and i will get you one from "The Stainless Edge" in Tokai. Send me PM for my contact details if required.
Christopher Brunsdon Posted April 9, 2009 Posted April 9, 2009 Next to Flameros in the Strand is a Nut and Bolt place, forgot their name. Sure I saw a place in Bright Street too, could be wrong though. But if all else fails, South End Store - if they don't have it, it was never invented.
