The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area Interiors Door hinge bolts

Hi all,
I have been looking for some 3/8x24 serrated head bolts for my door hinges. My doors will not stay in adjustment.
I have found a lot of coarse threads but cannot seem to find any fine thread,
even McMaster does not have them
any help?

Try a little lock-tite in the meantime. Let us know if you find them, I could use some too.

decided to do a google and came up with:

Thanks
I did a Google also,didn't find what you did.
6 bucks a peace? wow!!
I left a request at McMaster, I'll wait to hear from them.

This is what I used:

Yeah $6.00 a piece seems a bit excessive to me too!

You don't want to order the small package. That won't even do one door. It takes 12 per door so if someone were to order a 100 pack and resell 75 of them four people could get new bolts for about $1.25 each after all the shipping is done in those post office one price packages. A real philanthropist would order a 1000 and resell them at say $0.60 each plus shipping.

If you have a Home Depot they carry the same classicparts bolts for .75 each in the hardware section. Look in the drawer type bins for (NF threads)above the bulk stuff they are individually packaged for sale. I had to make a couple different trips because they usually only have 6-7 on hand it seems.
