Atari style black 10-24 bolts and washers - OEM match

I found a match for the 10-24 bolts often found on Atari cabinets. These are exactly what hold the Quantum marquee bracket on, but are used on many if not most of their games. This beats sanding and painting rusty bolts!

These have a black satin finish and are steel button head cap screws, 10-24 thread, 1" in length.

The black washer matched to it is the closest I could find and you won't see a difference, but the inner tooth count is one off and it was listed as Metric. The OD is near bang on.

The bolts with washers are $0.50/each + $2 to ship (qtys under 25pcs). If I run out, I'll order more that day and let you know that there's a week delay.

My paypal is [email protected] Please make sure the paypal note contains:
1) KLOV ID
2) what you're buying
3) your address

I don't need them, but if you started selling the black wood screws Atari used with the exact threads, then I'd buy some of these while I'm at it. :) What kind of driver do these screws use since your pic doesn't show the top of the head?

Oh wow.. a LIS avatar. I love the 1st season especially..

I will look an see if I can find those screws.
 
Should be Hex head.

That's what I assumed, but wanted to make sure.

We started watching it with our kids a couple weeks ago. Of all the LIS reruns I watched, I don't think I ever saw episode 1, so I never fully understood the basis for the contentious relationship between Dr. Smith and the others. It was neat to finally have an answer to that 30+ years later!

That would be awesome. I made a half-hearted effort once and I think others have tried to find them too, but I think no one has had the dedication to see it through to completion. You seem to have quite an affinity for fasteners, so hopefully you'll succeed where others have failed. :)
 
Those black wood screws were located by somebody in the past. They are square drive. I have 2 different lengths. I don't know who found them or where they got them. I just know somebody found them. The ones I have are used pulls from a water-logged cabinet. No, I am not selling them. I'm sure someone will find a link to them.

The closest I've found are actually on the screw aisle at Lowes. They are with the cabinet and specialty screws and are often used for pocket holes, for the Kreg jig. They are probably called washer head and they are square drive and black finish. Compared to the Atari screw, the head isn't exact, but is almost too close to tell the difference.
 
Bumping this thread up, I need 40-50 of them. pmed you Joey a couple times waiting on a response thanks

I can't ship for $2 anymore, I way underestimated that. The USPS flat rate small is like $6.80 now! I will have to ship for actual cost, as low as I can get it.
