Going all over, looking for replacement bolts, checking into the properties of
stainless, etc. I think we are reinventing the wheel here.
Why not just call Rohn or whoever sells their parts and order the "official"
bolts. The cost won't be much higher if at all than shopping around.
I'm not the bigget fan of Rohn (being a PIROD user) but lets face it. Rohn has
been the industry leader for over a half century and they supplied the bolts
that would properly do the job. Their engineers knew what they were doing. If
they felt stainless was better, they would have spec'd it and raised their
prices accordingly.
Simple... use the OEM parts and you will be fine.
Oh yeh, and don't use scrounged / used bolts... you don't know where they have
been!!
73 and be careful on the iron.
