Looking for a source for the thin steel screw in freeze plugs.

We make our own - modify a "normal" hex socket plug by shortening both ends on the lathe.  They end up pretty decent and we usually do a few sets at a time.  Do not know if I have any "in stock" right now....

I normally get the ones from Dennis and cut them down, was just wondering if there was a source for the thin ones. I'll just get some from him and cut them down .
Thanks.

If you're into rollin' your own just look up General Plug and buy a hundred of them...pretty inexpensive that way - and they have the hex drive instead of the square drive some folks use.
