Chassis Ground Screw Specs

Fri Sep 17, 2021 9:44 am

It seems like my techs have trouble replacing the grounding screws when swapping out switches.
I know I have dropped them and had trouble finding them too. Spares would be handy to have.
Does anyone know the specs for the screws?
This is the grounding screw that goes in the front panel near the power connector on the WS-12-250 series.

Thanks in Advance!

What is 6/32? That's not a valid fraction, so I'm sure I'm reading this wrong.

I'm also in need of replacement screws, but I'm not sure how to interpret 6/32 x 1/4"
Can anyone clue me in?

It is not a fraction. Search either "6-32" or "6 32"
