Plane Fence Screws

[Colaboy]

Hi.

Does anybody know what thread these are please?

They are the screws that attach the fence to the rods on a Record 778 rebate plane and a Record 044C plough plane.

I need to try and find a couple and I just need to know that i'm looking for the right thing.

Thanks
Paul

I've checked on my 044C and they are 3/16" 24 threads per inch, which is a standard Whitworth thread.
I don't have a 778 to check but it was in production a lot longer so there may have been some variations.

Hi Andy, thanks for the info.

They are same as the 778, or at least my 778, as i took them out and they fit both planes.

Thanks again
Paul
