Hi all,

can someone please tell me the size/length/thread for the little socket head cap screws that attach the Gemini (version 1) servo motors to the standard Losmandy gearbox.

Many thanks
Adam

i had one missing about nine months ago, so i took out one of the others and brought it to a place called i think perth straps, any how it was basically a giant warehouse just full of different screws
the man behind the counter admitted it was a very unusual american thread
he did find one for me however the head was too big and it wouldnt clear the vents or slats on the side of the motor so i just edged it down on a fine diamond wheel at work and it went in perfectly

These are just American 4-40 UNC x 5/8" long cap head screws which use a 3/32" AF allen key. I have a few black finished ones this size if you want them free of charge. If you want stainless steel ones I am sure there are a few places like "Boltmaster" who could supply them.
