Re: [Elecraft] Need size of Allen wrench for small knobs on K1
Don, On the other hand, Wikipedia says: Hex keys are measured across-flats (AF), which is the distance between two opposite (parallel) flat sides of the key. Standard metric sizes are defined in ISO 2936:2001 "Assembly tools for screws and nuts—Hexagon socket screw keys", also known as DIN 911, and, measured in millimetres (mm) are: 0.7, 0.9, 1.0, 1.25, 1.3, 1.5 2 to 6 in 0.5 mm increments 7 to 22 in 1 mm increments 24, 25, 27, 30, 32, 36, 42 and 46 mm. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hex_key So 1,25 mm does exist in the metric world and in my set there is one but I have the imperial set as well, including 0.05" However, I do have kept the supplied wrenches for my K2 and KX3 apart together with some spare nuts and bolts... 73, Peter - PA0PJE Op 2015-01-17 14:05 schreef Don Wilhelm: David, I don't believe you will find a proper fitting wrench in a set of metric Allen wrenches. 1mm is too small and 1.5mm is too big :-) . Those with only metric wrenches should guard the ones that come with the K1 (K2, KX1, K3, KX3 etc.) carefully. 73, Don W3FPR On 1/17/2015 4:27 AM, David G4DMP wrote: In a recent message, George Averill writes Can someone please tell me the size of the Allen wrench that is used to attach the small knobs on a K1?

David, I don't believe you will find a proper fitting wrench in a set of metric Allen wrenches. 1mm is too small and 1.5mm is too big :-) .
