Anyone know of a supplier who sells Track nuts that do not turn rusty at the first sight of rain? I must have gone through 3 sets in less than a year. Currently use weldite 11mm in stainless steel.

    Stainless shouldn't go rusty, though I thought Weldtite ones where just chromed steel and not stainless.

    Just keep them lightly greased/oiled to keep them shiny
    Recipe: shave legs sparingly, rub in embrocation and drizzle with freshly squeezed baby oil.

    The better steels are at not rusting the worse they generally are with regard to hardness and tensile strength.
    Please note this is a generalisation please don't quote exceptions.
