Title: Replacement screws for Poker
Post by: jdcarpe on Wed, 16 January 2013, 16:26:12
Does anyone know the correct size of the screws that mount the Poker/Pure PCB to the case? If you could provide a link to where I can get some, that would also be very helpful. Specifically, I'm looking for the ones that have a "washer head."

Thanks!

Any small engine shop will have thread gauges so you could have them check one you have. Then its just looking for the right ones at the hardware store or McMaster or similar:)

#2-56 is the screw you're looking for. Here's an example of one:

This one doesn't have the washer. Also, this one is longer than the ones that come with the Poker as I needed longer screws to work with the case that I made. I don't know how long the normal ones are, but if you don't have one of your own to measure I could dig up my original ones and take a peek for you.

Thanks for the answers, guys. I'll see if I can find some locally before I go the online route.
