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.

Had the same question for Shodog a while back .2.5 mm and length depends on the rim style you have . If you in fact purchase some , put me down for a dozen also and i will paypal you

I have been meaning to go by a local place called Mr. Metric to get screwed. I'll let you guys know what I find

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.

I get mine at fastenal for my tec wheels, there identical to the stock ones, and they have them all sizes and length gold,chrome,or black.

I hope this helps, I don't know about UK but USA people should be good, if not anyone that needs them let me know I will pick some up for you guys..

Thanks Tony. Do they have a website you can post so we can see if they ship outside the us?

I'll check..

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.

mcmaster has stainless and black oxide steel 2.5mm fasteners in stock and pretty cheap, various lengths.
