I have some close areas under the panel where Phillips head are not a good idea. Does anyone know where you can buy those HEX screws and what they are called

AN? Thanks Ron in OREGON

I used NAS 1801 screws in many places. For example, I used them for most of the seat pan screws, rear baggage wall screws and on other interior cover plates.

They are found under Machine Screws on the ACS website.

Try Tacoma Screw Company. I believe they have a Portland outlet. Lots of good stuff there, drill bits, files, bolts, just about anything a handy guy needs. tacomasrew.com. Happy Hunting, K

Think Genuine Aircraft Hardware!

I have posted several times about the handy functionality of these screws.

We stock a reasonable selection of them, have been for years!
