    Hi Kev,

    sorry didn’t put down a full explanation!!

    I am looking for a supplier that sells small quantities – There are a few manufacturer’s including Moss Plastics, Premier Vinyl Solutions and few more but they all sell larger quantities..

    I only require 24!!!!

    most are boxes of 500 and 1000

    if you cant get them, what about using a piece of PVC pipe or Rubber hose just screw on & cut off flush. On 6mm bolts i have brought PVC pipe from my local Aquarium shop put it on then warmed it for a good fit. You could also get some heat shrink from someone like Maplin’s & shrink that on.

    There’s a hardware store in our town that sells them singularly Ade. You want me to get some and post them to you?

    No problem Ade. I’ll check their price in the meantime but they were pennies when I bought a dozen last month.

    In the past, all I have ever done is cut the bolt/screw down to a minimum length with a hacksaw & put a splodge of black silicone sealer on the rest of the stickie out sharp edge.
