OK Guys,



Somewhere in my 2 car garage is a flyer of a Bolt Catch Roll Pin.  After searching for 30 minutes, I am ready to try and find an equivalent at Home Depot or the local hardware store.  Does anyone have the Length and Diameter, or another way of referencing it (size number, etc) that I could use when at the store?



Pic for reference.  On the white tape.

Are roll pins easy to locate in hardware stores like Home Depot?  I usually keep a few extra small parts on hand but usually have to order them from one of the web sites.

Roll pins are easy.  I found one the right diameter and had to cut a little off in length before I tapped it in. They even have the same finish.   Once in, you cant tell its not one from the parts kit.  





There is a BIC pen spring that can sub for one of the ones in a lower, not sure which one though.
