[QUOTE="SidecarFlip, post: 642777, member: 39764"] Gary... We/you need to also clarify that the term 'allen screw' isn't correct. Allen is a trade name/manufactruer. They are socket head cap screws (SHCS) which I refer to them as. Of course the head shape can be varied like button head or countersunk or flat head and others, just like regular bolts are..... We used to purchase a lot of fasteners from Lake Erie Screw until they got their tit in a wringer over supplying remarked grade 2's (as 5-8) to the department of transportation for use in highway signage and lighting. After a couple standards sheared off the federal Highway Department tested the fasteners and LE got in big trouble...... Never used Black Max. 272 does the trick when bonding stainless studs in 6 series aluminum. Sort of like the 'Crescent Wrench' misnomer.....:D [/QUOTE]
