stephen aish Posted December 18, 2003 Share Posted December 18, 2003 hi guys, i was wondering if anyone has located "graded" bolts in the UK, like the ones mentioned here -the grade 2/grade 5/grade 8 etc.? if not, is there an equivalent i can use. i currently train with the "M" bolts M6/M8/M10 etc. and have recently found a site that sells them with only the last inch threaded rather than 60% of the bolt. these are still the cup head bolts and have no markings on the head. hopefully these will be good fun to progress on -i did order 600 as a start if i cant find any-what is the average strength in lb of a grade 5 (like the one in Jedd's vid and on Bender's website with the markings on the head) so i can at least see how close i am while searching for them. thanks for your help and advice stephen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Horne calibrated one using his 70 degree bend method at, I believe 212.5 kilos or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
