Re: [A/S] Door Problem
I would say that fatigue is the root cause of the failure. I would suggest
going to a place that specializes in selling fasteners and get a grade 8
machine screw with the proper nut. You should be able to find such a specialty
fastener store in the yellow pages. This will give you a good, high strength
fastener to work with. If the stainless machine screw was purchased at a "regular"
store, you may have been sold an imported fastener made of inferior material.
