Stainless nuts

[Northern Monkey]

The msx uses done headed nuts on the cylinder head. They are also flanged.

Unfortunately Honda makes them from scrap cbf frames and the rust quickly. I'd like to buy some stainless ones, but can't find any M8 some nuts with a flange. https://img.photobucket.com/albums/v284/geoffhill/FA1EF827-1065-49A5-B041-18737F0EB1A5_zps4pj30nxi.jpg

Does anyone know where I can get them?

Fastener specialist, or ebay?

Also Titanium?

I don't know the bike, so I don't know if it's a high-torque area (but doubt it).

Could you choose to buy A4 stainless dome nuts instead of A2?
A4 (Marine Grade) steel may be more brittle but shouldn't rust.

In fact, again depending on use, Brass dome nuts would be even better (as pointed out to me recently from BCF when discussing exhaust header nuts).


EDIT:
Sorry, missed the "cylinder head" bit. I'd probably chance my arm with A4.

EDIT2:
Which don't seem to exist anywhere (not flanged dome in A4 anyway).

you should know to put this in the workshop

My exhaust had domed nuts on them but replaced with normal nuts and is fine, no rust.

Be careful putting SS nuts on CS threads, they can corrode on so hard that you will never remove them!

Rusty flange? You can get special cream for that.
