Lowes has em.

Good to know. I didn't try them or HD 'cause I figured they wouldn't
have them - or I'd have to buy a hundred at a time.

HD and Lowes are just the opposite. If they have the bolts you want
they only have a few and they are expensive. Locally I go to Ace
Hardware for bolts and screws. You can buy one or a big box, your
choice and they have a far better selection, including stainless and
chrome plated.
Since these stores are a franchise, YMMV
Online McMaster Carr is probably the best outfit with the biggest
selection. Some years ago when I was looking for an unusual metric
bolt, I ended up ordering them from Europe. (12mm x 200mm stainless)


I have a fastener company about 4 blocks from my house, they carry a
very wide range of nuts, bolts, screws, and washers. They have
stainless, zinc, iron and some aluminum fasteners from 4-40 to 3/4" and
metric sizes to. Very convenient and, over the years I have bought
enough that if I only need 5 or 10 pieces they just give them to me.
Every couple visits I'll throw coffee money on the counter. They are
nice guys at the counter, always try to solve my fastener problem.

That would be nice!
