Where can you find 1-1/4"-7 A-194 Gr. 2H Zn plated nuts that are non-china?
 
The forging and machining can be done by these three companies, among others:





Usually these are supplied with hot dip galvanizing. If you want electrolytic zinc plating, you would need to mention that, and it may require more effort on your part to suggest/approve specifications, vendors, etc.
 
Thanks for the replies.
Portland Bolt did not seem interested when I contacted them a few weeks ago. They wouldn't even provide a quote.
I have reached out to the other suggestions posted.
It seems like if you want non-China, then they are only available in plain finish. Luckily, there is a metal finishing shop about 6 miles away that can finish plate hardware. I was just hoping to that we would have to add the extra step of plating the nuts ourselves.
 
Is it more common to use 8UN threads for A-194 1-1/4" hardware? I received a quote for 1-1/4"-8 that was about 33% of the cost for 1-1/4"-7.
 
pperlich, 8 thd by far more common in about 1" and up.

Mike

The problem with sloppy work is that the supply FAR EXCEEDS the demand
