I think I have just about lost all of my 40mm (Blue) M5 Cap Head Screws so I need some replacements. I have looked at what Inventables offers but I wanted to see if their is a better alternative that the community suggests.
I have been to Bolt Depot and seen the correct cap head screws. https://www.boltdepot.com/Product-Details.aspx?product=6527
Now, I’m curious if there is a product out there that includes the plastic wings or perhaps some other superior material.
The plastic that inventables uses is soft enough that if my bit touches it, it will cut through without damaging the bit. I see the advantage to that. I do not have a 3D printer, although I can see why they would be handy to have to print such parts.
Are there any other materials or products available that I should consider?
I was going to order some yesterday.
Screws (5 pack) $3.75. Shipping to Ohio. $14.57.
There is no way in the world that shipping costs that much.
No thanks, I’ll look elsewhere.
Its a rip off.
