48-50 door hinge bolt?

I need to finish my doors and I dont like the bolts that are about ready to be stripped out at the head. If I remember correctly someone did find a place to get replacements but I cannot find the thread.

I tried looking but the human verification thing is kinda annoying. Any help would be appreciated.

I used some that I acquired at Napa, They are they same length, same thread and counter sunk but they are hex drive, ( Allen type). I am using these temporarily until I can locate originals.

Door hinge bolts

I'm pretty sure I ordered my bolts from Dennis Carpenter, they're stainless but so are all my interior replacement bolts.

I got mine from John's F-Fun Hundreds some years ago. They still have them listed on their web site, part #56-428608-A, http://www.johnsf100.com/

They aren't exactly like originals but are the closest I found:

I went to the local ACE Hardware, they have a great bolt selection. Pick up some stainless Hex bolts. Worked great.

If you use stainless it's a good idea to use some anti-seize lubricant. Stainless tends to gull.
