Bottle Screw Sizes Or Chi "Rigger Shop".

[Mark-1]

I need the LH threaded end of a bottle Screw.

The threaded bit is exactly 6mm diameter but it's not a standard thread - metric fine or imperial, perhaps.

Anyone know exactly what it's likely to be?

Also is there a physical shop or rigger, handy for Chichester, where I can try a selection to get the right one? (Force 4 had a very limited selection, and nothing close to fitting.)

Steve Holman I believe is in Chichester marina and think theres a rigger Barry in Emsworth marina if that's any help...

I made some locking nuts for mine, the thread was LHD UNF

Barry in EYH/Thornham helped me when I had a galled LH part. He had a large assortment of old bits and pieces and found a match. Worth a try.

A 100pc hit rate of useful replies! PBO readers at its best. Thanks, all three of you.

I'll try SH at Chi Marina 'cos it's close by and if no joy I'll have a sort through Barry's parts bin.

Popped down to Holman's this lunchtime.

Nice guy, very helpful and he had just the thing in his box of useful stuff.

Got a really good feeling about the place seemed very professional.

Thanks all. Problem solved.

I only read the thread because I had no idea what Chi was and it was a short thread.

Its what PBO is about and is so invaluable.

Well done
