Where can I buy Allen headed Cartridge Bolts ?

Posted by: Peter Stockwell on 04 January 2004

I'm looking for a supplier of Allen headed cartridge bolts, or failing that the specification that I need so I can get them from a hardware store.

Thanks

Peter

Hi Peter:

In my experience the Rega bolts are the ones to get. They appear to be made of a diffrent material than most others (note their slightly dullish hue) and I've always found it easier to tell when 'enough is enough' when tightening.

Best Regards,

Thanks for all replies, I had a look over the Rega site, but didn't not specifically see the bolts, but I'll keep looking.

Basil,

Thanks for the Rega tip, I'll bear that in mind. I just ordered the fixing kit from the guy on Ebay. £6 + P&P.

Try Linn, the socket headed bolts supplied with my Troika were of the finest quality.

Also try SME or Extreme Phono. Extreme Phono do sell mounting kits and 'non magnetic' mounting bolts, as they put it, as well as other stuff phono. Worth a look anyway.

Sean,

Thanks for the the Extreme Phono link, They have a turntable mat that looks interesting too. If I have any problem with the Ebay buy, I'll look into Extreme.
