    Vintage bolt

    I am currently reconditioning an old Grinnell vise. It is missing 2 stove bolts that hold the jaws to the vise. They are 5/16 by 16 tpi. 1 inch long. All 5/16 bolts today are 18 tpi. If anyone has something like this I would be happy to purchase a few. I couldn't find anything on the Internet.
