Steve Thanks for the suggestion. I called them and they have aluminum hex bolts. So a little filing and it should work.
Isn’t this list awesome!!

I have had a positive experience with them overall, as have most of the people I've talked to on that subject. I got bronze wood screws for my hand rails and stainless bolts to fit my Yanmar from Facca for example.

If I could find some 1/2” aluminum ready rod or a hex head bolt I could probably shape it into a flat head and slot it with a hacksaw.

Are you sure you need flatheat? Our pedestal bolts are 1/2" hex head and 6" cut down.

All I could do was drill it out. Now I’m having difficulty finding a replacement. I called Edson and they advised me that they no longer carry the 6” bolt. Thanks C&C for making an extra heavy cockpit sole. So does anyone know where I can source a flat head 1/2” X 6” (5” would work) aluminum bolt. If a pinch I would use a stainless.
