rally gauge reset knob screw needed
« on: February 11, 2015 - 12:22:55 PM »
Does anyone know a company that sells just the screws?  I seemed to have missed placed one.  :walkaway:  :banghead:

All the companies I have found want to sell me the knobs and screws.

Thanks

I think they are called barrel nuts.  Do you know the thread pitch of the reset shafts?  It might make searching for it easier.

Yes they look like barrel nuts, as the shaft screws into the inside of the barrel.  It is pretty small, I am not sure if I could measure the thread pitch.

You might try taking the screw you have left to an eyeglass shop.They have a lot of small screws.

I was thinking that or a clock shop.....it sure looks like a specialty screw though, I cannot imagine what other item would use such a screw.
