buying arp fasteners in southern cal

[ibdmann]

Is there a place in orange county where you can walk in and buy arp fasteners in a place similiar to a hardmare store. Hillco has arp in bins, but they are stainless steel. Thinking I prefer chrome molly stuff.
thanks

I guess when you are talking like ARP you mean 12 point heads in high grade?

In any case here are a few places you might try:
(Anaheim) Mcfadden Dale Hardware http://hstrial-mcfaddendalei.homestead.com/
(Anaheim) Shamrock Supply http://www.shamrocksupply.com/

or you might try http://www.mcmaster.com/# , they are in Santa Fe Springs which is pretty close to O.C.

Pacific Coast Bolt also is in Santa Fe Springs http://www.pacificcoastbolt.com/site/index.html
they are more heavy industrial though.

if you are looking for actual arp branded bolts, mcfadden dale wont have what you need. (i should know, im in there almost everyday for work) but they do have pretty much any other fastener that you may need.

mcmaster is pretty much the same. no arp, but just about anything else you can think of. (i think their catalog is over 12,000 pages!)

for actual arp, you might need to get in touch with a speed shop to have them order what you are looking for. the one that comes to mind in anaheim is fast eddies on glasell & katella.

also, arp is located in ventura. a bit of a drive, but you might be able to purchase directly from them.
