all the screwfix high tensile bolts and nuts are 8.8. i costed up between the local bolt place and screwfix come up half the price even when buying everything in quantities of 100 or 50.
i think the local place wanted the same money for 10 m8 bolts as what screwfix charged for 100. im all for supporting local suppliers but im not going to pay well over the odds. there are some things that you will need to get from the local places as screwfix only hold common metric sizes.
also dont use screwfix threaded bar for anything structural e.g suspension and diff as its not high tensile.
