Overview

Imperial nuts, bolts and screws for older machinery and classic rebuilds, matched by thread form and dimensions.

01 / Detail

Match older threads without risking damage

Older machinery, classic vehicles and imported equipment may use imperial threads that aren't interchangeable with metric fasteners. We supply imperial fasteners in Alford for maintenance, restoration and specialist assembly work, including classic Harley Davidson rebuilds. Diameter alone isn't enough to identify the thread. Threads per inch, thread form and fastener length all need checking, along with the head style and component type. A confirmed specification or existing sample gives the safest starting point. Careful matching helps prevent crossed threads, loose fits and damage to valuable original components.

02 / Practical

Identify the thread before choosing a replacement

Bring the existing nut, bolt or screw to our trade counter where practical, or send accurate measurements and clear photographs. We can discuss the diameter, threads per inch, overall length and thread form, plus the material or finish required for the job. Related nuts and other components should follow the same thread system rather than being chosen by visual fit. We supply individual replacements as well as quantities for rebuilds and maintenance stock. This allows you to order what the job calls for without accepting a box of unsuitable or surplus parts.
