Tecnacraft Wheel Screws

Post by CNA75 »

Not sure where best to post this thread, however, I have a question regarding one of my sets of buggy tecnacraft wheels so have posted it here.

The hex head in some of the screws is starting to go out of shape making it difficult to screw and unscrew them. Does anyone know where you can buy replacement screws of the same size and colour? I can post measurements up if that would help but was hoping that someone may have had prior experience of this issue before and would, therefore, have an idea of where to get them.

Please let me know if you can help.

Thanks.

Please do. I'd be very interested in getting hold of some - both the longer ones for the 3 piece wheels and the shorter ones for the two piece wheels.

Cheers.

Just a quick response to see if Tony13b or Shodog had managed to make any progress with their investigations on this query? Would definitely appreciate an update if possible?

Thanks.

www.mcmaster.com

the website is hard to link, but it's not too bad to navigate.....

try this part number
91290A101

it's a punch down menu, so metric screws, m2.5, then select length, material, etc.....
