Following some careful investigation I've decided to use stainless grade A4
ie 316 for securing various bits to my latest boiler. A4 is a good deal less
suspectible to chloride embrittlement than the usual A2 304 stainless but
more expensive.
I bought them from www.a2a4.co.uk. The cost from them was slightly less than
buying ordinary steel ones from well known ME suppliers and just a quarter
of the quote I got from a well known supplier of fasteners based near
London. I didn't try another well known supplier based in the west.
