That would be awesome!  If you just get the size information, I'll probably order a few packs.  There are a handful of guys in my area that have gas kettles and will probably need them as well.

No problem

Decided to call my reply from the house since I'm already home from work I will probably have enough stainless steel studs washers and wing nuts for 5 kettles on Monday they really treat us well I will pick 6 for my kettle and ship you the rest I have access to our ups account as a perk won't cost you a thing and you can distribute to the rest of the guys that may need some

Works for me!  I'll PM you my address.

OK I'm lost but glad I did something?

Are you referring to the star nut link I posted and then just went poking around their site for other goodies? I wish they had a retail presence; McMaster is the bomb.

Holy crapola!!!!!  Thanks to @addicted-to-smoke's post on the other thread I finally found a missing replacement part I have been looking all over for.  The Gas Kettle attaches to the pedistal using a small both that is flat on one end, and threaded on the other. 

I've finally found it.  Thanks again ATS!!!!!

@addictedtosmoke I know the conversation seemed crazy but you got me to look at my kettle gasser and realize I needed the same @mikerocksthered needed so I called my McMaster Carr rep  and got some samples coming so yes you did do something so thanks

LOL.  The Salvaging Square nut thread led me to the McMaster website where it took me about 45 seoncds to then find a bolt I have not been able to find anywhere else that holds the kettle onto the pedestal in the gas kettles.

You mean mine aren't stock?





It's been so long I don't remember replacing them.

Thanks for the link!

Any luck with these?  If they worked out right I'll order some.

Mike,

Totally forgot about telling you I would send some your way. They worked great i added a washer to each side because of a little rust issue I can still send you some if you would like. I still have your address you sent me. Sorry about that I kind of put that RRR project on the back burner and completely forgot

No worries!  I can just order them if you want, but if you have some leftover you can send me that would be awesome.  I'm glad they worked out.  I didn't think I was ever going to find replacements.  Glad to have McMasters in the back of my mind for odd ball parts!

I'll bring them to work tomorrow and ship you some I have plenty
