All,
I need to locate two H&G screws/pins for two cavity. I may also need to replace the sprue plate. Any ideas?
thanks...

H&G used standard screws and bolts that often can be found in hardware stores. I found in many cases that allen/hex head bolts had the same threads that fitted the sprue plates and other applications. Shop around and see what fits what. It may save you some $$$. Same for the hinge bolts on the handles. LLS
If you are referring to the two screws that act as both the block retaining pins and also hold the sprue plate on you can replace with a short section of smooth round stock and cap them with a machine screw of correct pitch. The round stock will hold the blocks on the handles and the machine screws will hold the round stock in the blocks and also secure the sprue plate.
Hensley & Gibbs uses common threads and hardware for their moulds.
You can use that or contact Erik Ohlen at Hollow Point moulds for a fix.
