loads of stuff on there.... any idea who or where they are... the website appear to omit that bit
I'd love to give my imaginary friend a great big hug,
but this jacket makes it impossible.

did you find the bolt you were looking for ?
a lot of the DIN and ISO spec bolts have smaller heads than our BS ones....

Interestingly I can't seem to put an order through the site - have emailed them directly.
I found the one I want in there (essentially I have an M8 threaded female part and I need it to fit into a hole milled for an M6 head! No-one else
seems to do them which is unfortunate!

Yup!
I have a counterbored hole 6mm deep and 11 diam to get an M8 threaded fastener into! (UI can drill out the main shank diam no problem but the
counterbore is a different matter)

ok here's another idea:
what about making up a steel spacer on the lathe, ~11mm outside dia. with 8.5mm through hole and ~6mm think
then pop that in the hole and just use a standard M8 bolt (could be a button head if you need a minimal projection)
