The Essentra parts are a perfect fit - the pin handle is slightly shorter, but that's really not a problem Dave -Original Message- From: volt-nuts [mailto:volt-nuts-boun...@febo.com] On Behalf Of David C.

Re: [volt-nuts] PCB fasteners for Datron meters (David C. Partridge)
I now have prices from Essentra (was Richco) for their SLG-2S-B grommet and SLPB-2S-B pin which appear to be an exact match for the Southco Nylatch parts. I'm being sent samples which should be with me tomorrow or Friday so I can check they do actually work. On the assumption that I order at least 150, the pricing appears quite attractive, at GBP7 per 20 (grommet and pin) plus shipping from UK. GBP7 is about USD10.20 Dave -Original Message- From: volt-nuts [mailto:volt-nuts-boun...@febo.com] On Behalf Of Todd Micallef Sent: 27 April 2016 00:09 To: Discussion of precise voltage measurement Subject: Re: [volt-nuts] PCB fasteners for Datron meters (David C.

I fear that none of those WCL fasteners will fit the 3/16 hole (0.188" abt. 4.8mm) Dave -Original Message- From: volt-nuts [mailto:volt-nuts-boun...@febo.com] On Behalf Of Todd Micallef Sent: 26 April 2016 21:12 To: Discussion of precise voltage measurement Subject: Re: [volt-nuts] PCB fasteners for Datron meters (David C.
