Rotoflex bolts from Namrick

[pereirac]

HI,
Just wondered if anybody in the UK had bought rotoflex bolts from Namrick recently and if so can you tell me the sizes I would need? The bolts are all rated "High Tensile Grade ?S'" so I assume they would be suitable?

You will have to double check but i have some rough measurements i too a while ago. I found they where a pita to get hold of with the correct shank length.

9x 3" total length 2" shank

3x 3 1/2" total length 2" shank

The rotoflex bolts are 7/16unf

The lengths are not standard grip lengths or nominal sizes, suggest you contact Sue Miller or Tony Thompson to get the right ones.

Hi
I wouldn't buy from Namrick - a long time a go I ordered what they described as a bolt but they supplied set screws when I rang they didn't understand the difference - obviously didn't buy anything again.

Thanks,
I used them year ago and they were pretty good. They don't do the bolt lengths I need so will boy from the usual suspects..

30+ years ago they were brilliant.

Times change, I would have been really dissapointed and done the same.

Funny... It was probably about 30 years ago as well when I last used them.. good old days.

Hi Chaps,

I purchased my rotoflex bolts from Mr Matty. They seem to be a good quality high tensile bolt apparently from a new supplier. They were reasonably priced as well.

I've used Namrick recently and the bolts seemed reasonable. The split washers looked very cheap.
I get my stuff from Trident racing now. Generally I use their AN bolts.
The problem with the rotoflex bolts is that the shank length is vital. I doubt you'd save yourself much by buying direct than through the usual suspects.

Thanks, for all the suggestions. I decided to play safe and bought a set from Miles Wilkins, who is a great person to deal with... but you have to phone him.

Are your ears still ringing?

Hi.
Just wanted you all to know that Fastenal Company told me that they will make the bolts you want in the sizes you want. I just wonder about the quality of there product now..

Just changed my rotoflex couplings and bolts.. The bolts were in a worse condition than the couplings!!
