Hi - That part should be readily availble through metabo go to metabo.co.uk for contact details and they should be able to let you know which dealer is local and also give you price (maybe £19ish??) It's a common part and I'd guess is in stock - even for 315 (older) version - not aware 316...

welcome to the real world of devalued sterling do you really believe they do not understand the market and don't want to maximise sales in this current economical climate? as said earlier - Sheppach went up 15% I believe your fury over paying £12 more on a £120 order is better directed at the...
