Kamry X8 Cartomizer Tank

[prowler]

I want to replace some of the thumbscrews on this tank. The filler screw and the carto screw [that tightens to the carto] are both the same size. I have a habit of dropping them and have broken the knurled head off on two of them. Anybody know where I might order some?

If you know what size the thread is you could swap em out for allen screws.
Ive been waiting for a cheap x8 tank to come up on ebay, I like the idea of a top fill screw.

I doubt you'll do better than the one pictured. Available @ $6.23 [do you're own conversion rate ]

Why not just chuck it in the bin,,,,,,looks like a load of crap to me!

[prowler]

As your opinion is worthless to me, I wonder why you would impose it on me. There is very little trolling here, it's a pity you choose to do it.

prowler just a thought, but at £4 a pop perhaps you could order another couple, use both new ones and strip the existing one for spares?

That's true, I have another one on the way. I just received 4 glass tubes for them [from Spectrum Tanks] and wondered about getting spare screws.

If you can find out size of the screw m3 m4 or whichever and thread pitch.
Then you might find a suitable replacement here.

PC thumb screws might be a similar fit.
But without knowing exact size hard to find em.

Could these be what you're looking for?
M2 M2.5 or M3

Ah, I had over looked them on FT.
Im waiting for 1 of these to arrive, apparently top fill also.
will have to see what the quality is like.

Thank you igual but the page shows a "fatal error" for me.
tomj777 the screw has a sharp pointy end and wide threads.
I think I'll just take prr's advice and buy spares. I just thought someone on the board may have done the work already.

phtumshk I haven't tried those, but if the seals work ok should do the job. As with the X8, with the juices I use, I'd have to have a glass version and the X8 tube is easier to get I'd bet. Having said that, only 2 of the 4 I ordered, fit straight out of the box.
