I don't now what kind of saw you have but i buy husky style nuts at the local truvalue hard ware store. husky nuts will also work on dolmar. Don't know about stihl but it would be worth checking out.:greenchainsaw:

The genuine Stihl nuts are only 90 cents msrp... I bet a dealer would cut you a heck of deal for "bulk". And no freight..

I bet if you paid your bar tab the nuts would be free?

The smaller Stihl M8 nuts (older saws like 056 etc) are 75 cents msrp... I beiieve these fit most competitor saws... As a standard flanged nut, they should cost 10c, but...
I bet there are buckets of used nuts at cheapstihlparts...

What do you guys use all these nuts for? I've only lost maybe two in as many years... but... I don't cut in the snow all that much.

I have the bar off several times a week, and quite often someone does not tighten it the nuts up enough. Sometimes it is actually me who dose it. Used mu last husky nut Sunday 'fore last.
I know some people who use the cheap nuts from the hardwear bins, but I also know some of them who have cracked the cast aluminum cover....

Several months ago, I bought 3 at Eglehoff's in Thiensville for 85 cents a piece. Recently, though, prices on stuff there seems a bit higher. Worth a stop if you are in the neighborhood.
