Default I need a 1.5mm M2.5 grub screw supplier

I am wondering if any of you good people know where I can find a
supplier of a slightly unusually sized grub screw.

I need 1.5mm long M2.5 hex socket type.

Any ideas anyone?

Many thanks,

Carl.

I doubt that you will get that.
Rule of thumb: minimum thread length is equal to diameter of screw.

Looking in the standard (DIN 913 or ISO 4026), the minimum length of
_any_ grub screw is 2mm. The lengthes for M2.5 are 4..10mm.


HTH,
Nick
