    Default Bolt availability information

    Hi groupies,

    Recently had a e-mail from x-part informing me that part TYG000250 can no longer be sourced from the original supplier which went out of business.

    Why they can't piggy back onto the JLR bolt supplier I don't know but I should think lack of will due to the low volumes involved.

    This part is essential for prop-shaft and drive-shaft.

    Anyone got any leads on a substitute? The difficulty is the pitch 2 spec.

    What's the full spec of the bolt?

    Head, thread profile, length and thread pitch.

    Nich, as far as I can tell it is a Torx HT 12,9 bolt at M10x2x50mm

    e-mail contents:-

    Our Purchasing Team have chased their supplier again and confirmed that they are not able to supply TYG000250. Unfortunately the original supplier went out of business.

    Our records show that the bolt had an adhesive 'patch' on it and that it wasGrade 12.9, there is also what I understand to be a 'standard' reference no. associated with it: SS110507P. I hope that helps you locate some supplies or get the manufactured.

    All my searches to date have not found anything.

    So looking for Torx Head M10 x 50 x 2.0 High Tensile 12.9 grade bolt.

    Reference SS110507P.

    2mm pitch is incredibly coarse for a machine screw, it would normally be between 1.25 and 1.5 mm.

    Will keep looking.

    It is the 2mm Pitch that will be the problem.

    I have just spoken to my supplier of such odd ball items and he reckons that he reckons he has not seen an M10 with a 2mm pitch with a Torx head. We might have a chance with an Allen key head or normal hex head.

    Can you find out from X Part who the original suppliers were? If the 2mm pitch is accurate then I must admit I have never seen a thread that coarse. If we knew who the original suppliers were then we might be able to source alternatives.
