My company uses them to secure the side and back panels onto the diagnostic medical equipment that I service. We've used them for over 20 years now. Nice for larger panels, but -not- appropriate for something like the K3. The ones I use are fairly lagre, and require a rectangular cutout in the instrument frame to accept the receptacle that the fastener 'screw' locks into. -Bruce N1RX (K3 ordered in July, hoping for feb/mar delivery) _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
