Hi,

Sorry to bother you folks but does anyone know what the following plane parts are called:

I know they are bolts of some kind, presumably to bolt on panels but I don't know what their exact name is.
Also are they worth anything? I ask because I have quite a few of them, all new and I'd rather someone got some benefit out of them than handing them to my local metal scrap merchant.

Fire away.

to my knowledge of aircraft, since I work on them. I have never seen bolts like those used.

there can be many things they can be used for, like in a compression clamp. i dont think they have much value at all, just a basic hand screw in bolt, u could flog then off to a machanic or something but yeah.
