Not sure if I can use these on garden hoses and 1 gallon hand pump sprayers though. I'm assuming if they fit I should be good to go but I never seen rubber gaskets coated on the outside with metal before and this worries my cheap basterd heart
Best kept secret for bulk fasteners is tractor supply. They charge by the pound and they are about 20% the cost of your average hardware store.
Wow that is a secret. I've been to TSC many times over the years for specific things and I had no idea they sold those. I've never browsed in the store though. Thanks for the knowledge transfer!

You're welcome! I bought all the support fasteners for my kids tree fort from them. About 5 lbs of 3/8" x 6" with washers and nuts.
That kinda stuff is a fortune at a place like HD or Ace.
And you don't have to write a bunch of dumb part numbers down on a bag that doesn't accept ink with a pen that doesn't exist.

Hahaha so true! Pens are nowhere to be found and just horrible to write on that material.
Id suggest everyone pass on no name screws from Amazon. The heads shear off super easy on cheap ones.
Yeah I agree with you. The only name that is decent in this list is 'VIGRUE'. While they are what appear to be one of many Chinese companies (Lowe's and HD get their generics from China too unless USA fastener), I personally have used their hardware and it's decent quality for the price. The machine screws I've bought from them before have been great for light duty stuff and hasn't rusted being stainless steel.
You can search 'VIGRUE' on SD posts and been several over the years with community reporting overall positive results.
Just my 2 cents on that name, but I definitely wouldn't touch the others.

It's not. Shopping on Temu is like trying to surf the web in the 90s with no pop up blocker. You literally can't get anything done because the app is a spaz and tries to get you to play a game or win a coupon every other click.

I was looking for a machine screw that fit my Ryobi drills so I can attach a belt holder/clip to them when I saw these.
