OK, or a battery operated Sawzall.

The Laird OEM stuff for the 450 antennas use the same stuff. Stainless
on stainless. Every single one we've put up has seized. At least it
won't loosen up! Still sucks when you want to change something and
have to cut the bolts off and replace with something else.
I really wish Cambium would convince their supplier to change to
galvanized or give us silicon-bronze nuts. Even metric, I'm sure if
they ordered a brazillion, they could get the cost down.

They are M8 - 5/16" is almost exactly the same size as 8mm (not the
same thread though), so it works fine to just use normal 5/16"
galvanized carriage bolts from Menards or wherever, and the nuts will
use a 1/2" wrench, which is close enough to 13mm that you don't need
to bother with different tools.

If the head takes a 13 mm wrench, it would be an M8 bolt and the
nearest SAE size would be 5/16. If it takes a 10 mm wrench, then
M6 and the nearest SAE size would be 1/4. HDG bolts are a bit
oversize due to the zinc so YMMV (galvanized nuts are tapped
oversize to match).

So I don't have to re-invent the wheel, do you have the size and
a source handy?

We have swapped all of ours out with hot dipped galvanized bolts

When will this magical new dish be out? Will it keep my
installers from Swearing while assembling them? Can it be
installed by Drone? I can just program the drone and release it
from the roof of my office to go do the install?

We've had to start doing our first couple EPMP takedowns
(Force dishes), and it seems that the stainless nuts
have seized on.
Should we be hitting all installs with Anti-Seize, or
would we be better off just replacing the hardware with
brass/bronze nuts ala LMG? I haven't used Anti-Seize
before, is it a sticky mess to work with? Would the
installers actually use it, or just screw over the guy
that gets sent to de-install? I'm also thinking about
how to easy it would be to re-deploy the Force Dishes.
