    Hi both,

    Are you talking about the small screw that threads into the end (i.e. down the opening) of the fixed insert on a Looker or similar Steelworxx device?

    I just got my Looker 01 last week, and was rather surprised to find this included. What's it for? :confused:

    My local hardware store sells a wide assortment of security screws and keys.

    It's going to be metric for a start .
    Just go to any hardware store and get a couple of samples . If the out side of the tube is say 6mm then the screw is going to be around 3 or 3.5 possibly 4 mm .

    Go for stainless steel and a few rubber "O" rings .

    You should be fine.

    Xx Wendy
