Teleflex steering wheel nut needed!

slimtim · 13 June 2006, 08:36

Does anyone know where and can get hold of (quickly) the nylock nut that screws on to the steering helm spindle of a teleflex nfb steering system? I discovered last night that the one I have is mangled

The thread on the spindle seems to be about 13mm across the threads...bit odd if you ask me.

If teleflex don't supply the nut seperately, is there any chance I will be able to get one to fit from somewhere else?

I need this nut asap....

Thanks.

Hi

I would think it is 1/2" UNF OR UNC
Can you take the nut to a local iron mongers or nut and bolt Supply Company and they should be able to help

thanks for the replies guys. No fear, cheers for the offer but my local chanderly has managed to order one for me.

The cost for the nut and washer....£9

disgusting
