Need some 5/8 UNC studs

I need a couple of lengths of 5/8 UNC around 5 inches long to bolt down my
lathe. The studs screw into the cast iron feet of the lathe and then
throught the bench. Come to think of it some nuts wpuld be good to!
Anyone know of a good mail order or local source (Preston/Blackpool)?
Many thanks
Steve

If you can't find anywhere closer, BOKA Bolt in Runcorn may be able to help. 01928 590 440. If they've got it, it'll probably be a 3' length.

I don't think *my* local engineering supplier will have it, they only have metric studding these days.
Not me that's looking for it, though
