Standard Screw Sizes
 
I'm trying to order some screws in bulk so I have some on hand. I'm seeing 5mm and 6mm being standard bike sizes for cages and fenders. Any other standard sizes I should consider?

most common is M5 X .8

get stainless and various lenghts too if you can afford it.

I buy mine in packs of 50 from Fastenal...average is about $10 or so a package. Also get washers and lock washers and a few of the locking nuts in the corresponding sizes. I typically use 10mm, 12mm, 15mm and 20mm lengths the most.
