Bulldog44[TK] Posted August 5, 2014 Report Share Posted August 5, 2014 What is the correct size screw(screw head)for attaching the metal brackets on the thermal detonator? What should the diameter of the screw head be? I know they used black slotted pan head screws according to the Bilhag reference pic. Also, aside from confirming the size, would you happen to know where I can purchase them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sly11[Admin] Posted August 5, 2014 Report Share Posted August 5, 2014 I found pan head screws in a marine supplies shop, they also had stainless steel industrial snaps for marine use on boats. I don't recall seeing a head diameter reference so I scaled the images and work on a size of 5 mm. See if anyone else chimes in with more accurate info.

I am located in Japan and they don't seem to carry slotted screws anymore. I will look into Marine shops here based on your find.and thanks for the scaled measurements. Maybe some other members will be able to confirm the screw head size as well. Thanks again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazmosis[501st] Posted August 5, 2014 Report Share Posted August 5, 2014 Troopermaster uses screws that measure 6 MM across. So as long as you can get some near that size, you will be fine. His are also actual course thread screws. If you can fine threaded bolts with nuts that can screw on from the inside, as long as the head is slotted and black it will work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bulldog44[TK] Posted August 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2014 Thanks Steve for that info. I just found some place in the US that makes pan head screws for antique hinges. They might be about that size I hope. Going to order some and have them shipped over. Cheers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
