One of my customers, Steve J. recently replaced his plenum torx bolts with SS socket cap bolts, and sent me this useful tip. Thought I would share it here.
Jerry,
I don't know how many sets of plenum socket screws you sell, but as I have a 1/2" socket torque wrench, I went looking for a 1/2 to 6mm socket and found them at a closeout price at Graingers.
The item # is 6PHL2 for $2.89
The sales clerk told me they have 27 in stock .
The 6mm bit is too short so I pushed it out in a vise, cut off a 3" length from a 6mmm hex key that I bought from Western Tool and supply and pushed it in.
As you are a former machinist, you might want to do that for your customers.
