I'm looking for a screw type for my B&D jigsaw. the bit that holds the
blade in place. i have lost 1 of them and need to replace it. It's a
bit tricky with just 1.
The thread is like the screws used in electrical sockets, but what are
they called.
I took the remaining 1 to my local diy store who said they were machine
screws and not available.
Anyone know what they are called and where i can get them.
Many thanks.
Grub screws?
Do they do up with a hexagonal (Allen) key?
It should be possible to buy a mixed pack from a model shop or
somewhere like that. I would think that the ones you need would be
M3 or M4 or something in that range.
Alternatively, call a B&D service centre and more than likely they'll
send you some for nothing.
