Replacement screws for Dunlop Straplocks?


Recommended Posts

Anyone know the screw size that will fit in a Dunlop straplock? After moving straplocks from bass to bass, the heads on the two screws are now stripped and I can't turn them anymore - infact they are a mess so I've had to chuck them. Need new screws, but can't find anything that fits with the small head size needed?

I think they have a narrower head than standard screws of the same thread size, so  if you can't get the real thing you might need to find a screw that fits through the hole and then grind the head down so that it goes down as far as it should.

That's pretty much what I do.  Despite the power of modern search engines, I've never personally found a way of finding narrow headed screws -  or where they quote the head diameter at all.
