Best supplier of small BA hex nuts and bolts

[ken king, King DesignParticipant @kenkingkingdesign]

For a current project I'm looking for a supplier with a range of steel BA nuts and bolts (specifically 8BA in this case) and preferably with one-size-smaller hex.

I'd be pleased if you will share your reccomendations,

Regards,

Ken

I ordered some one-size-smaller 8 and 6BA off EKP one evening last week and they arrived in the post two days later.

They manufacture them themselves and the quality is always good.

+1 for EKP Supplies, excellent quality and very quick delivery.

EKP are good EXCEPT for 8BA nuts, there others are all single chamfer turned nuts but the 8BA are pressed and not quite a true 8ba hex. I don't think they can now get the 8BA stock hex so just you in the formed 8BA nuts.There washers have also gone down hill over the last few years being nearest metric rather than old BA spec.

I use Emett who have a stand at the Guildford show but you might want o try BABolt

Thanks for your inputs chaps; I ordered on EKP's website, and the items arrive 2 working days later. Well pleased.

Just been on EKP site for the first time – awesome stock list and very good prices – stocked up on my ba requirements for the next two years.
