Pardon for a stupid question but is it a big problem to find a bolt in UK?:) In Russia and in Moscow there are plenty of special shops where you can find any bolt you need:)

Only need four!! Theyre for my front calipers I may have to get a normal hex bolt and washer and threadlock

Chrome would do equally well tho :D

If I were you I would not take stainless bolts for your calipers, neither on any other safety relevant parts. Proper steel is much better for that purpose. Not that you'll run into danger in short time, more likely a long term issue about contact corrosion between partner materials of quite different refinement etc.

I agree with Pedda, not only from the corrosion issue, but also from the tensile strength aspect.
