    Default Where to find oddball screws in small quantities?

    I'm looking for an M3.5-0.6 allen screw at least 30mm long, 35mm probably preferred. Home Depot definitely doesn't have that size, Fastenal only has one listed on its site but the one time I tried buying something there they told me it was for commercial purchases only (and it's the wrong head, which isn't a big deal). If it helps it's a replacement screw for a pic rail adaptor for a scope, but I can't find any Bushnell replacement parts.

    Make a call to Blackfoot Industrial Supply. If they don’t have it, they will get you one.

    X2 for Blackfoot Industrial Supply. I've always found the most oddball bolts there.

    Quest industrial services, just east of Blackfoot cycle, on the corner of Highfield road and 11st has every odd bolt I've ever needed, from M5 socket head bolts to stainless, to 6-32 screws and everything else in between. Never walked out of there empty handed. Awesome place to go.

    They have a minimum cash sale amount of $20 or $50, can’t remember. If you buy a single bolt, it’s going to be expensive and come with a lot of gloves and shop cleaners. Lol

    Its $5. if whatever I'm buying doesnt equate to that much, in their dollar/clearance bin, I'll pick up a flashlight or something. Otherwise cash sales are whatever the nuts/bolts cost. $0.30 to $.1.70, doesn't matter.
