Gentlemen,
The Clutch Cover Plate Bolts are listed as being Special, and are part Number 214840. They appear to be 5/16" BSF with self locking nuts, so not sure what is so special.

I can fly them in from the UK, which seems very environmentally unfriendly and carbon insensitive, or I can ask my local Fastener Specialist, if I know what the specification is.

Can anyone help?

regards
Jeff

Why? The plane is coming whether your bolts are in it or not.

Best of luck getting BSF from your local fastener specialist...

Possibly high tensile ?

I don't have a problem sourcing BSF bolts but the average bolt shop often hasn't even heard of BSF or BA.
I can source locally but have to buy box quantities so tend to buy from the UK when I need them. I also have plenty of secondhand ones from parting out a Series I some years ago.

The website you've linked to doesn't have prices so I'm guessing they will be relatively expensive as they are specialising in BSF & BA.

Here's another local company that specialises in BSF Classic Fasteners (https://www.classicfasteners.com.au/)
