An excellent source for Metric Fasteners

My client and I decided that the stainless steel machine screws that were holding the Beyma AMT's faceplate on, in low-light conditions, looked like cat's eyes staring at you. Rather than painting them with a paint marker, I went in search of black metal replacements.

One supplier had a minimum quantity of... 500 pieces. Many wanted a 100-piece order. A couple wanted a 50-piece order. There was only one supplier that had no minimum quantity (but there was a $5 order minimum before Shipping). Photo is of Black Stainless Steel.

So, if you need metric fasteners, and don't want to buy 50 pieces, Belmetric is the answer.

Mcmaster.com has about 500 sizes of metric flat head black oxide screws. Here is M6 10 mm https://www.mcmaster.com/91294A234 $14 a hundred. If you can take 20 mm those are 50 a box for $7 https://www.mcmaster.com/91294A240. Freight is $11 UPS surface to my house, usually overnight Cleveland-Louisville. Order by 1800 Mon-Thu, on the porch by 1900 next day. Mostly arrives by 1400.
They have another warehouse in Chicago, sometimes the freight from both is $23. I sometimes delete items and substitute to make sure my box comes only from the Cleveland warehouse, to save $11.
Be sure to change order from invoice to debit/credit and make sure shipping address matches your debit card address, else uncheck shipping address same as billing.
