Best Source for Silicon Bronze Lag Screws

[Retroman]

I need (3) 1/4" x 2" Bronze Lag screws can't find them for much under $30.00 with shipping.
Can't find them at any of the usual places. Any Idea's?

My usual source is Jamestown distributors, and they seem to be in line price wise with what you are seeing, and their stock is low. Pandemic related shortage still?

My father is an old sailor and did some custom rope work for the clanger. Mounting it to a 6" x 6" redwood post which serves as 1 of 2 light posts at my built in BBQ area.

I would think Stainless would look very out of place there, glad I didn’t suggest it.

Are you set on lag bolts? Seems that a #14 screw at 0.242” shank could be had for just over $1.70 each. Just need to set up for the right head to look good.
