Hey guys, I was tightening up some switch stack screws on Sky Jump and found one that was stripped. Does anyone know what size these are? They look like they have a finer thread than a 6-32, maybe a 6-40, or 5-40?

I’m putting in an order for PBR soon and would like to know what I’m looking for before contacting them. Thanks.

Thanks Howard. I tried that at Menards and didn’t find a match. I could give Fastenal a try on Monday, maybe Fleet Farm?

I always forget about Ace, I’ll give them a try.

Thanks guys. Here’s where the stripped screw is from, the switch bank for the 1-7 rollovers. Sorry about how dirty it is, I’m not good at cleaning the inside of these things. Please don’t repost this in the “horror pics” thread.

I would like to invest in getting an assortment of hardware to have on hand for cases such as this. Any suggestions on what I should stock up on?

Looks like 5-40 is the winner and Ace is the place. Thanks for all of your input. I’ll venture out to Ace today while I’m still allowed to leave the house.

Thanks for all the help everyone. Here’s the start to my hardware collection. Mostly from Ace, but I did find some at Menards and there’s a few from PBR.
