    Anybody happen to have a 5/16x24 stud?

    I bent the Allen head stud that attaches my bee stinger sport hunter stabilizer to the bow riser. I called the customer service line, but they told me this isn’t sold as a separate part..

    And while i can still make do, this should be an easier fix than fabricating a part…

    Tractor supply , Home Depot, Lowes, Ace, or fastener store would be the quickest. I think the auto parts stores would have them without the allen heads.

    HD and Lowe’s are useless. 5/16-24 threads.

    I was in Lowe’s, one guy didn’t know what a stud was, the other started looking in wood screws.

    Fastenal is closed till Monday, Grainger will sell me a 12’ threaded rod that will arrive in a week…


    Thx for the ideas though

    Just buy a 5/16-24 bolt, then cut the head off. They also have full thread bolts in the little slide out drawers.

    Also car part stores will have the bolts also. Like advanced auto and auto zone. But i know Lowes, home depot have them also.

    Exactly what I ended up doing, though neither HD nor Lowe’s had a usable bolt. Went to ye old hardware store that had just one. :eyeroll:

    When asking for it, ask for 5/16-24 all thread rather than stud, can normally get it by the foot and cut to length. Studs are normally press fit or have a non threaded section in the center to thread into a taper locked threaded hole. Stud is probably not pulling up anything im their queries.

    Use a bit of red loctite whem you assemble, will locknin place but still able to separate if needed in the future.

    In case you didn’t find a good solution, here are some stainless studs from Conquest.
