    Default Round nuts?



    Does anybody know where I can get some nice M2.5 slotted round nuts from?

    Thanks. I found the eBay stainless ones.
    Just wondering if there are aluminium versions available.

    Din 546 seems to be the standard, but not finding much without a minimum order of 100 to 10,000 pieces.

    What's the reason to use aluminium , easy to strip the thread if over tightened .

    I would rather strip the thread than damage the cartridge.
    There is now way that they should be done up tight enough to strip a thread.

    Some stainless is also magnetic, which I would not think was ideal next to a cartridge.

    permeability for standard austenitic stainless steels is between 1.05 – 1.1 , no way to damage your cartridge
