Hello Don,
The old age does not lend itself to quick thinking. I just sent you an e
mail offering to send you few panel nuts and did not think that you were
talking about "speed nuts", but then you said 10-32. I do not think there is
such a thing, "speed nuts" are super course thread, for sheet metal grade
screws.
Anyways, where my old age came in, was forgetting about McMaste Carr, my
trusty hardware supplier. Their web address is: .
What I have is G style, McMaster's P/N 90542A343. Look it up in their
catalog and let me know if that is what you are looking for. If you want
more than a few nuts and do not like shipping charges, I will be going to
McMaster within a month and I can pick up those nuts for you and mail them.
Regards
Miroslav Pokorni

Subject: [hp_agilent_equipment] Equipment rack rail C-clip nuts
Thought I'd ask the group:
I'm looking for a source for the C-clip "speed nuts" used in Agilent/HP
equipment rack rails, such as in the N4043A ( nee 1181B ) cart. The part
is an
Agilent PN 0590-0804 "NUT-SHMET 10-32-THD .5-WD STL" and is a "support
part for
which Agilent does not own the design specifications" (which I read as
available off-the-shelf someplace).
Agilent wants 3.38 each (!) for them, and I suspect you guys who work with
rack mount equipment know an online hardware store off the top of your
head
where one can buy a bag of them for something less.
Thanks in advance,
Don Cramer
