I got this because my LBS (Bike Store) didn't have any and I needed it for an odd part on my bike. So, I bought 50 and very pleased although I need maybe 3!

great delivery with no issues.

These turned out to be useless to me, the description stated they weren't fully threaded, but didn't state just how not fully threaded they were. I'm going to have to get a die that will go further up, I'm having trouble finding M5 bolts that meet my requirements and these were the closest. The picture is very misleading.

There appears to be a big labeling mess-up with this item. I ordered these and received a package labeled with the correct information. However, inside the package are what appears to be nylon washers of some sort. We are returning for a refund, which is no problem with Amazon. However, we *really needed* the M10-1.25, 75mm HEX socket drive *screws.* Very disappointing.

Good quality hardware is hard to find, and most often priced way too high usually unreal specifications. I've been purchasing nuts and bolts from different merchants, either on-line or thru local hardware stores, and the Small Parts provides most realiable hardware I experienced. Grove accompanied with hard material fits firmly to hex tools, eliminating heartbreaking stripping of hex tools or the screw head.

Search for material hardness in 12.9 spec screw. I use two(2) m2.5 sized screw for the prop driven motor mount onto a homemade model airplane, drawing excess of 60Amps. The model plane crashed many times, yet have not had sigle screw failing me. This screw is so finely build, it will snap the shaft of hex tool before grove is stripped off. I'd imagin better screw would be the ones fabricated with 100% titanium or other exotic material with much tigher tolerance commonly used for military application, costing excess of $10-$20 a piece, if one can buy it from a retail store.

I bought these to fit my VESA plasma mount and they work perfectly. I use a washer behind the head. They are strong and beefy screws. They arrive in a small plastic bag that is not resealable.

They're nice and turn turn turn, holding in place. What else do you expect of a screw? Got what I expected from this product.

They sent me screws that are about 4 times the girth of the pictured screws, and about half the length. Cost like a dollar so the cost of sending these back will far exceed the return. I am throwing these in the garbage because there is nothing I can do with them.

These are only threaded about half-way up the shaft, not all the way as in the (generic?) picture. I'm happy to have 50 of these for later, but they won't do for my intended use (on a drumhead).
