Just wondering what type of steel or alloy are the screws commonly used in Twin Tip boards, to hold the fins? And where can I order them please? Appreciated.

Stainless steel M6 Philips head usually about 18 to 20mm in length.

Got 12kg of those in stock (no joke). Let me know if you need bulk amounts

I'm not sure but you may be able to find something equivalent at Bunnings or marine shop, etc. Cheers

My stainless screws would come undone.
The replacement has rusted solid; perfect.
