New source of helmet bolts?


Recommended Posts

I was in my local Napa Auto Parts / Welding Supply today and came across a "Fibre-Metal" headband that had an attached bag of mounting hardware that -appears- to be identical to the 3M Speedglas bolts. I didn't buy it, so I wasn't able to measure and compare the two, but these things look dead on.

The headband with hardware is about $11-12 online, and I don't know if they sell the hardware separately, but my local Napa guy is checking into it; I'll post a part number if they do.

 

Anyway, just thought I'd pass it on, because some folks are saying the gray 3M bolts are getting harder to find.

i just got my 3M Speedglas 9000 mounting gear from a welding supply website. the store is located in illinois, but you can buy online by searching for item #04-0660-00.

 

they were $3.56 each.

 

i'm not sure if i can post the name/website here. PM me and i'll pass it on. if anyone is sure it's ok to post it, i'll post the link here.

 

hope it helps

Thanks Lou...

 

hi...

I had PMd this to Leo, but figured i'd share. i got my 3M bolts from this website:

 

www.weldingsupply.securesites.com

 

search for item #04-0660-00 (9000 Mount Hardware)

 

they were less than $4 USD

 

once on the website, you can look for the headgear which comes with bolts - but check to make sure they are the right kind as some will come with black ones, etc. good luck!

That's where I used to get the bolts when I did a few mass buys. Did you actually get the gray bolts or the black ones? I know they haven't changed the photo to show the black ones. Last I was told by them is that they only had the newer style; maybe that changed...
