02GF74 - 19/1/09 at 04:18 PM

I am after size M2 internal shake proof washers, but M2 spring washer would do.

(yes, it is not a type, that is M2!!)

anyone know where I can get some from, small quantity and no huge postage?

(looking at the mo' on the bay).

VVVV nice try but not much in M2 size

RS do them, far too many but since I am stuck .....

Have you tried a local model shop?

£0.35p for a pack of 20, and postage rates are great too (all of £0.75p !!!)

Used them multiple times with only positive experiences - great service

If it's any help, 8BA washers will have an internal diameter of 2.2mm. You might find them in Namrick, or a model engineering supplier.

Plain washers and a drop of threadlock compound?
