Anyone Know Where To Get Copper Screws

Post by Lean Wolf »

I am trying to get about 100 #8 by 1 1/4 copper screws to replace them in the cabin of my F44 and cannot find them anywhere. Anyone have some words of wisdom for me?

You want Bronze or Silicon Bronze screws . And they are not Phillips head in most cases their prince reed ( look like Phillips )

My Trojan was full of the the Fearson Head screw, again looks like Phillips but better. The come out easy with a Fearson head bit and strip many times with Phillips, I bought all sizes of the Fearson Head bits. :D

Maybe the 44 is different then the 28
