Source for screws

Post by unclemikey1978 »

Hey guys, I was wondering if there was any place I could get small batch socket head and flat socket screws. I only need a handfull of screws to complete a few projects and I don't want to spend $12 on them which is what it would cost if I bought them from Tower. Does anyone know of a place I can order a handfull of screws?

Associated 4-40 screw kit comes with about 40 screws in various styles and sizes, and also includes a few of the 8-32 aluminum chassis screws. They are about $8 shipped on Ebay.

these are two of the biggest... there are others. usually for just a handful the shipping is higher than the screws, so maybe you also want ot order other things too

then mcmastercarr for you in the US

Yeah, I'm getting out of the hobby for a while to fund my new band so I don't want to buy a huge amount of screws from Mcmaster. I'll check the other sites you mentioned and see what I can come up with. What's the number of the 4 - 40 screw kit?
