SKB Rolling Rack Case Which Size Bolts?

[Paulg2uk]

Hi guys,

I have an SKB Rolling 4U Rack Case, I need a few replacement bolts but looking at the SKB kits they look pretty expensive. Is there a particular size bolt I need to look for in my local DIY/Hardware store? I'm sure I can pick these up for cheaper.

Cheers

I believe they are all standard #10x32 thread

Thanks for the reply, are we talking m6's here? Or a different code?

Cheers

A different code. English, not metric. #10 screw, 32 threads per inch.

Ok thanks so this should be on the packaging when I have a look in the store?

Yes.

The bolts from rack gear mfg's. include a plastic isolation ring. These will decouple the rack from the frame of the rack. This is done for a reason. They are not that expensive. However, if you must save a couple dollars doing DIY method, be sure to get some type on non-conductive washers for these bolts.

I will second that. Some sort of plastic washer is a must.
