Push Nuts for 2 mm Pin

Post by The Dog House »

I received my new speedometer paddle wheel. It came with a new shaft/pin, but it did not come with any push nuts to secure it. Does anyone know where I can order push nuts for a 2 mm shaft/pin? The local hardware stores have push nuts, but nothing that small. Thanks for any help you can give.

Problem would be finding push nuts that won't rust .( if I am thinking the same thing ) . First I would contact the people you got the wheel from if you have not . Could you use a bolt/screw and nut instead ? Or maybe using epoxy to hold it ?

https://www.mcmaster.com/#stainless-ste ... s/=163fifh, but none of these are small enough. Not sure where you can find one that is 2mm (0.079").

Here you go, try part number T99220SS-93. Page 18, 2nd entry. Is this what you need?
