Supertanium

I have some bolts that are marked "Supertanium" on the head. Does anyone know the specs on these? How do they compare with Grade 8 bolts?

You really shouldn't be posting this on a public forum. They're off the hyperdrive cowlings on the X332 being developed at Groom Lake and are an alloy of tritanium and Naquitur. Phone the NID, say you're very sorry, sign all the bullshitty secrecy documents they chuck at you and hope not to spend the rest of your life 'vanished' in a very deep hole somewhere.

I'm not at all sure why women like men. We're argumentative, childish, unsociable and extremely unappealing naked. I'm quite grateful they do though.

Call these guys and ask them.

It seems they sell them.

I don't like Brits in general and I really don't like Brits who think Americans should grab their ankles after being attacked by raghead camel jockeys.

Me too. See above.

See Baker's post 9-11 musings. Talk about puking.

Carl, comments like above only serve to fuel the global hatred for America.

it is true non the less for many who hate America.

Wow, I'm half Brit. A pleasure to be half disliked. BTW, What's your lineage, Carl?

What's true? The rest of the world thinks you should do nothing? No, not really. But if that's what you mean, then I don't suppose you should even be discussing this issue with anyone other than those who agree with you. Whatever floats your boat.

Thanks Ernie. I sure don't know what NG that other stuff came from. But if they are comedians, I hope they keep their day job.

I dont think it fair to say America is hated! What is hated is the fact that the American government at the moment seems to have more in common with nazi germany, and appears to think the deaths of millions of people, in service toward US economic interests is quite acceptable!

Slightly better than grade 8, about grade 9 HTH

Oh BORING !!!! You know quite well they are of off world origin so why torment the OP ?

That's right! I read it on the NET, so damnit, it has to be true!

I'm going to hazard a SWAG. It appears that this term applies to cutting tools as well as fasteners.

The fasteners seem to be aimed primarily at the automotive industry. There are some for sale on eBay, now. It may be that they are German Imports and/or that they are made or distributed out of Fort Lauderdale, FL, since there is a website of that name registered to someone in that town. (Also, likely that it is a domain name squatter.)

Cutting tools seem to be limited to brake lathe tools, drills, and the like.

Personally, I suspect that these are grade eight or better fasteners marketed under a catchy name. I guess they could be Titanium fasteners, but since they are offered 20 for $7.00, I doubt it. However, I really can't tell.
