Need help with "nuts"

[solmer2]

Hi there,

I'm trying to choose the right Hexeal sealing nut for a new project but I'm lost. I need to know wich partnumber fits my standard 16mm potentiometers (by standard i mean IE the pots used in the Minelab Sovereign XS)

http://www.alphapotentiometers.net/html/16mm_pot_1.html

I don't know if I must choose the 1/4 3/8...



Any help would be appreciated !!!

Thanks in advance.

Take a nob off and measure the old one!

First, you can't use a Hexseal on a gnurled shaft. Second, most 16mm pots have a 7mm metric collar, and APM doesn't make any metric Hexseals.

Hi ,thanks for your inputs.

I'll try to find the right pots first.

For Europe and nearby, try this, at 0.99E rip-off price, 4 and 6mm axis:

Rändelmutter 6 , search at http://www.reichelt.de/

Hi Tepco !

Great information, thanks for the info but....:

Damn it !!! I've checked the website and they are marked as "out of sotck"

They're great for my project since I don't need top of the dollar nuts......

Do you know another supplier? I know that the builder is Mentor but I can't locate the products on their web....

Thanks again for your support.

How you find they are out of stock? I received my order less than a month ago. Maybe temporary supply issue, they will re-supply, otherwise, i'm in trouble and need alternative too. Damn traders!

Hi Tepco,

Yeah, sounds strange but I got a message like.... item not found when i try to finish the order, after pressing the checkout button. I've tried to add another items and it's ok, but I get the item not found message if i try to order them.

Could you try to place an order adding them?.

Thanks in advance.
