 I use stainless nuts and bolts quite a bit, I dont know about 'U' bolts but you can get st.st. screwed rod quite easily. Get mine of Ebay

My System: 90cm channel master, jaeger 1224 ,vantage x221tsci, skystar 2, diablo v2.3, setanta on 60cm minidish | i dont think u bolts would fit if i got some from b&q because of the shape of them just need to make sure it cant move about as there only so many times as the bolts are so tight now i should really go 36v with it being exposed but i'm not sure i can setup a polar mount/actuator | ||

Unless you need that many nuts this may suit 170071654057
