Wondering if anyone would know what size these nuts would be, for the phono connectors?

In my infinite wisdom of starting something , and not finishing, and then returning, I seem to have lost all the nuts for the analogue and digital ones. Tried to find them, and have had no joy, cant figure out what size they would be...hoping them are not specific to the phono connectors themselves

If this is the guitar nut, that holds the jack plug in on an electric - they dont fit, I already tried the one from my Gibson :)

yup, 12x8x2 on my phono but some are 9mm internally and some 11mm externally, there is no standard.

must have a different sized one then. those are the usual ones. might be easier just replacing the whole rca as they are not especially expensive

I will break something if I do that :) but yeah, I thought it may have to be the way...its definitely not the guitar one.

Ah its probably the bigger ones - any idea where to source or what the whole sizing would be?
