Hi you wont buy them they only have them in brass that is nickel plated and you can buy them on line. Are they the ones that you use for the chrome strip that you are after.

I got some from the stainless steel shop at taren point but he was e pensive.
Try jamestown distributors or bolt depot in the states.
Bolt depot has them but they wont ship outside of america. You will need to find a mate over there that can send them on to you. Thats how I get them. I used six guage for the gunwall strips.

he has quite a lot of old stock in various sizes.
cheers,

hi paul.
I am sure I will meet you eventually.
my name is mark Rumbelow and I just bought one of Col Baileys boats , "friski"
i'm just fitting a couple of scoops on the engine cover and some cleats.
colin has done a great job with the resto and just wanted to keep the period correct screw thing going on.
