Bimini top base bolt gone!!!!

[dannyleininger]

Help! I have managed to lose the base bolt for the Bimini Top of my Benny. Dealer is having a tough time finding it in Bennington’s parts catalog. I have attached a picture of what’s needed. Any direction would be greatly appreciated.



I would love to search online but I don’t know what to call this type of bolt.

Thanks in advance!

It’s called a sex bolt. Not joking ....

You can get them through McMaster-Carr. And they are a Sex Bolt. Who names these bolts?!?!

I’m sorry…I’ve been laughing for the last 5 minute…really!

Be careful doing a Google search for this product.

Well, the whole "male" and "female" connectors are pretty suggestive and dance around the issue, so someone probably just said screw it - I'm calling it like I see it.

If the new sex bolt comes with a burr and won't thread right, use a bastard file to correct the problem. ha! I remember all the juvenile snickers in shop class when we learned about bastard files. ........lets see....about 53 years ago
