aardvarkglory Posted June 29, 2018 Report Share Posted June 29, 2018 I have had a bunch of bolts and nuts bond together and break. I would like to find out where I can buy the bolts and nuts so the I can get a bunch. If anyone know where I can get them, I would be grateful?

JT Posted June 29, 2018 Report Share Posted June 29, 2018 We are currently in process of shipping replacement parts /screws, radomes, bracket clamps/ to our Master distributors. I think in Europe they will be receiving it and ready next week, overseas sometimes third week of July. Seizing is an inherent issue when using stainless steel hardware. To prevent seizing to a minimum, use Loctite 8009 or any similar anti seize lubricant. Loctite 8009 shall be globally available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marburg Posted July 2, 2018 Report Share Posted July 2, 2018 I've also had this problem. Not sure if you're in the US, but I've reached out to a couple of the US distributors (Streakwave and ISP supplies), I will let you know what I learn.

MiroZV Posted August 6, 2018 Report Share Posted August 6, 2018 waste of time to get original screws i had the issue last week that bolt got stuck, take me 2 min to cut the old bolt and replace it with normal roofer bolt with square on the end , working perfect cost me 2 euro and i saved on shipping and waiting time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kkonrad Posted August 13, 2018 Report Share Posted August 13, 2018 (edited) Same problem here. I installed the antenna on a tripod for testing and was unable to take it down... After putting the bolt and nut it in a vise I finally managed to unscrew them. It took me over 15 minutes and WD40 was somewhat helpful. I fixed the thread inside nut by tapping it again. I'm going to replace the bolts with brass ones, so they won't seize. Edited August 13, 2018 by kkonrad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray Breshears Posted September 11, 2018 Report Share Posted September 11, 2018 (edited) I hang at least 2 RFE 50s a day and 9x out of 10 the stainless hardware seizes up....sometimes during install which can be a pain up in the air....
