rjg1973 159 Posted November 27, 2020 Hi TC folks, Can anyone help me out with a Lotus 99t / Williams FW-11 Screw Bag A? I particularly need the 3 x 32 x 6 and 3 x 15 x 3. Cheers, Rob Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nick G 54 Posted November 27, 2020 If all else fails you should be able to get them from a local Fasteners supplier or ebay will have loads. The first '3' relates to M3 thread , so the 3 x 32 is a 32 mm M3 with counter sunk head etc. Nick 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kamika007z 43 Posted November 27, 2020 I just took a look but unfortunately I don’t have any left over since I built one, while the other is being kept NIB. I can take a look and see if any alternate kits used the same screws if anyone knows of any? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you have any problems finding anything available then buy a countersunk M3 in 40mm then chop it down using a grinder. If you are really, really stuck send me the 40mm M3 bolt and I'll chop it down for you to the correct length. And give it a little luck of paint so it doesn't rust before posting it on. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rjg1973 159 Posted November 28, 2020 Thanks guys, appreciate the responses. The M3 32mm flat top countersunk are shared with the F101 and I’ve found some of those. The M3 15mm raised top countersunk seem to be part of the later pan chassis F1s such as the FW07. I may just have some FW07 spares tucked away. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kamika007z 43 Posted December 15, 2020 Believe it or not, I just came across a car (Lotus 99T re-re) that needs the very same two 3x32mm screws as well. Were you successful in finding them? I found black ones but not the silver ones. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kamika007z 43 Posted December 15, 2020 Not sure if any of these would do: https://www.amainhobbies.com/tamiya-jr-countersunk-screw-set-tam15510/p944788 Though, the longest one is 30mm not 32. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kamika007z 43 Posted December 20, 2020 Hey Rob, Were you ever able to find a replacement screw set? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rjg1973 159 Posted December 20, 2020 No, wasn't unfortunately. I bought an F101 screw bag for the the M3 32mm flat top countersunk (in black), and found some non-tamiya M3 15mm raised top countersunk on ebay from a specialist screw supplier. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
