Kali Key - Connection screw/nut specs?

[ocsurfer]

I have a Kali Key where the screw/nut came loose and apart on a desert shoot and so I lost the nut/screw.

Kali-Key carries a lifetime warranty so they sent me a new one, but now I have this Kali-Key that only needs a screw/nut to make it whole again.

I'll point out that when I first contacted Kali Key I simply asked for the screw/nut specs as I'm fully capable of sourcing and repairing it myself, but instead they sent me a whole new Kali Key.

Anybody have any idea what the Nut/Screw specs are? I'm referring to the tapered allen screw and hex nut that holds the handle together.

Remove said pieces from replacement, measure, get new ones, carry on Garth

This. I highly doubt they're using anything proprietary.

Most hardware stores have a display with nuts & threaded posts in metric and inch. I usually bring the "what's this size?" nut or screw with me and test.

Go to a well stocked hardware store. This will be a standard size, but my local HD or Lowes wouldn't have these small pieces.

If you know the size but have trouble finding it try boltdepot.com .

Take apart the one you have and measure what it is.

Basic outside diameter of common screw sizes:

#4 0.112"
#5 0.125"
#6 0.138"
#8 0.164"
#10 0.190"

Once you have the basic screw size, there will only be a few different pitches used for that screw size.
You can count how many threads in 1/8" or 1/10" of and extrapolate what your thread pitch is.
