    Replacement screws/nuts for PTP elbows

    Hi folks,

    I'm building a cocker pump for a friend and it's a RF. I have one of those lovely PTP elbows, but for the life of me I can't find the screws or nuts for them. Anyone know the sizes off hand so I don't just have to buy a bunch of random shit from the hardware store?

      That would be great! I don't need them immediately so it's not a huge rush.

      Yep. Bought some spares recently. The original screws that came with mine were slotted and I prefer to replace them with hex cap screws so I don't have to grab a screwdriver when I've already got a set of Allen wrenches out anyway.

    Yup, Jordan has it correct 6-32 screws and nuts. I get Wing or Knurled knobbed bolts and RTV the nuts into place. The other option is to cut out the nut/bolt bosses and just use hose clamps. On those I use black coaches tape (hockey tape) to wrap and hold them in place.

      RTV for the nuts, why didn't I think of that?!! I had been using superglue, but it is too brittle and cracks loose after a few tighten/loosen cycles.

      Thanks.

      This thread got me thinking if I could rig up a PTP feedneck with some of these bad boys
