Osmolator mounting screws

[bmk]

Hi
I got up this morning to find my 'electroinc eye' floating in the tank, one of the mounting screws had sheared off and promptly emptied 10 min worth of water on the floor. On checking the other screw, that is 'warped'. Does anyone know where I can get replacement screws from and do they do a stainless steel screw, also what size are they.

Many thanks in advance.

If you get the extension set 3000.244 they are black anodized stainless steel.

Roger, thanks for that. When I asked about stainless steel screws I was told that Tunze dont do them and I would have to get 'marine' compatible stainless steel, so I have ordered a couple of sets 3000.243 (plastic screws). If I had known I would have mentioned set 3000.244 as I now have no confidence in the plastic screws.

Usually the plastic screws are fine you just have to be careful not to overtorque them. They are graphite reinforced nylon and should be pretty strong.
