Fan screws 6-32

[David512]

Hello guys

I bought two fans for my side panel, but I need a specific nut to hold it. It is called 6-32. But I can't find any store that sells it.

Can you tell me any store from Europe that sells it?

Did you Google "UNC 6-32" or ANSI B 18.2.2

Zollshop.de sells unc nuts

any radio control/hobby shop carries these 6-32 x 1.25" long screws.

Maybe you should read the post and not only the title

I scan through posts and I'm 95% sure your post had nothing to do with 'nut'.

And what means the 6-32 from my screw?

 

It designates the size of the screw. The 6 means #6 standard size screw. The 32 is the thread spacing, means there's 32 threads per inch so you need a nut that matches the same spacing. Also, 6-32 is the same size screw that holds your HDD's.

Honestly, I don't care.. His title says 'screw'. His post says 'nut'. Is it my fault he has both? No.

Here is a photo of the instructions that came with my case: http://i.imgur.com/u5kwvOa.jpg

 

I must find a nut with the same reference, right?

I need a nut that fits on my fan screw. Can you understand that? Or you answer topics based on the titles, instead of reading the description?

Thank you for your help, but with the shipping fees to my country, the total price is a bit expensive for what brings on it.

I will keep searching for other stores
