i dont know any supplyer but i know a story from a guy . He got permanent residence with his company . He was going to do testing for new prototypes of dehumidfier brand Lübra. He said he did stop that project because each time he found a supplier for bolts it became a unreliable source and he had to find another one, He then shut up shop and moved to tauranga from northland. then he sold the tauranga place and moved back to switzerland. And i know a hell of a lot more people who left like this its usually the ones who tell me its not as bad as i make it out to be they all left the country . strange huh.
Their on-line service is very quick & they are a good bunch to deal with.

LOL; I suspect the market for specialized fasteners in Taupo is about as big as the one for Northumbrian spoke-shavers easels!
Luckily I have a branch 3 minutes drive from me on the Shore, a bunch of crusty old guys that have a wealth of engineering knowledge and a huge range of fasteners.

Probably because one of the original owners of the business moved to Taupo. He pulled out of the business, so no doubt the Taupo branch didn't have a principal.
North Shore branch still seems to be thriving. I needed a lot of imperial stuff for the parts of my car that remained original and they always managed to supply what I needed from stock.
Its on a classic restoration of a bull dozer but what else would you suggest I try.

A lot of places like konnect sell construction fasteners, so probably all metric stuff?

steelmasters in penrose have all the commercial fasteners I've ever needed. I believe the aviation alt part number for the bolt is AN7-30. Cad plated steel. An AN365 nut will work. Aviation and performance parts in NZ can supply all kinds of imperial hardware. Or aircraft spruce. https://www.aircraftspruce.com/menus/ha/nut_an365.html

I'll second Steelmasters, not cheap but a great range and excellent staff product knowledge.
