bolts for climbing holds

Postby Rich » Wed May 09, 2012 8:09 pm

Hey anybody and everybody,

can anybody recommend a local (i.e., Halifax-Dartmouth) place for buying 3/8" bolts for indoor climbing holds. Have checked Canadian Tire, Home Hardware and no luck. MEC seems to carry some different lengthened socket heads but no flat heads...

Cheerio

If your looking for the regular black type bolts try these guys...
http://transworldfasteners.ca/
they sell by weight and its fairly cheap. I went here to get some longer bolts, not sure if they have the flat head ones though

otherwise go to fastenal, they have everything, just a bit more expensive.

In Fredericton, the climbing club sources all our bolts from Fastenall. I expect they have a Halifax location as well. They usually stock a really good variety of lengths. I believe they describe the product you want as 'socket head cap screws'.

We also have gotten a bunch of bolts from Fastenal for home wall holds that didn't come with them.

Here are some locations near Halifax:
