Mounting Bolt and Bushing |
This 2 1/2" x 1/4" bolt serves two
purposes. First, it attaches the Silo to its support post.
Secondly,
it provides a "pin"
to
which the nest-insert is attached. The bushing (polyethylene
tubing) serves as
a
spacer between the bolt head and the
inner wall
of the Silo body.
The bushing has a 1/4" ID and
a 3/8" OD and must be cut to a length not
exceeding 7/16".
Both the bolt and
the bushing material
can be
purchased at most hardware stores. |

Enlarged Entrance Hole |
|
Of the
three bluebird species, the Eastern Bluebird's range is the largest,
therefore, the standard
silo is constructed
with a
1 1 /2" diameter entrance hole. For those landlord's who are
geographically located in
the western states,
a larger entrance hole (1
9/16" or 1 5/8")
can be ordered to accommodate the
preferences of the Western
Bluebird and the Mountain
Bluebird. |
| |
| SKU# & Price: EE-80 No charge, but must be
ordered (not a stock item) |
| |
|
|
| |
|
| Screened Vents |
Small pieces of
screen cemented over the air vents (on the inside surface of the silo) to
reduce
insect access to the
silo.
Most users prefer to install screens themselves to reduce
cost. Silos with screened vents are not stock items
and must be special ordered. |

$3.50 |

|
Stainless Steel Mounting Bolt and Nut |
| A stainless steel bolt and nut will not
corrode and provide easier removal of the Silo after an extended period of
service. These items are available at most hardware stores, but
can be ordered from Worley's Slippin' Silo. |
